Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Immunogenicity of the Human Norovirus Bivalent (GⅠ.1/GⅡ.4)Vaccine，Recombinant (Hansenula polymorpha) in Healthy People Aged 6 Months to 13 Years After Vaccination
A Randomized, Open-label, Active-Controlled Clinical Trial to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Ondansetron compared to Metoclopramide in the management of Nausea and Vomiting in Adult Patients with Acute Gastroenteritis.
This protocol describes the challenge non-typhoidal Salmonella (CHANTS) study. This is a first-in-human phase 1, double-blinded, randomised, dose-escalation human infection study, conducted in healthy volunteers aged 18 to 50 years. The primary objective of the study is to perform a dose escalation with two strains (ST19 or ST313) to determine the infectious dose required for 60-75% of volunteers to develop Salmonellosis using a composite diagnostic criterion. The secondary objectives of the study are to describe and compare the clinical and laboratory features following controlled human infection. It is hoped that the successful establishment of an NTS human challenge model can be used in the future to test candidate vaccines for NTS disease.
This is a phase 2, multi-country, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the immune response to routine pediatric vaccinations when co-administered with HIL-214 or placebo in healthy infants. This trial will also evaluate the safety profile of a 2-dose regimen of HIL-214 co-administered with routine pediatric vaccines.
To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of different dose levels of the Recombinant Norovirus Hexavalent Vaccine in healthy subjects aged 18-59 years given three doses of the vaccine at 28-day intervals.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lactose-free milk will change diarrhea duration and severity in formula-fed infants with acute gastroenteritis presenting to pediatric wards.
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity, safety and immune persistence of recombinant trivalent rotavirus subunit vaccine in healthy infants aged 6-12 weeks and healthy toddlers aged 7-71 months.
Compare the effectiveness of automatic vs as-needed (PRN) post-hospitalization follow-up for children who are hospitalized for common infections.
Hypernatremic dehydration (HND) is a common and potentially life-threatening condition in children. It is defined by a serum level of sodium greater than or equal to 145 mmol/L . HND is a type of acute dehydration constitutes a medical emergency and requires a rapid diagnosis for adequate and quick management. It is characterized by a deficit of total body water (TBW) relative to total body sodium (TBS) levels due to either loss of free water, or excessive administration of hypertonic sodium solutions. It is common in infants. Net water loss as seen in diarrhea is the most common cause of hypernatremia. Clinical interventions at the hospital settings or accidental sodium loading usually cause hypertonic sodium gain. It is common in developing countries where gastroenteritis is a common problem. Most children with hypernatremia are dehydrated and have the typical signs and symptoms as weight loss, decreased skin turgor, pale skin color, and dry mucous membranes. Hypernatremia, even without dehydration, cause central nervous system symptoms according to the degree of sodium elevation and the acuity of the increase. Patients are irritable, restless weak, and lethargic. Some infants have a high-pitched cry. Alert patients are very thirsty, although nausea and fever may be present. HND can lead to neurological impairment due to brain shrinkage, which can tear cerebral blood vessels, leading to brain hemorrhage. Cerebral hemorrhages are the most serious complications of HND that can eventually lead to convulsions and even coma . The first priority in managing a child with HND is to stop the ongoing water loss by treating the underlying cause. The next step is to restore the intravascular volume with isotonic fluid. Dehydration can be treated with oral, nasogastric, or intravenous fluids. The child is given a fluid bolus, usually 20 mL/kg of the isotonic solution, over about 20 to 30 minutes. More severe dehydration needs repeated boluses at a faster rate. After the fluid bolus is given, the signs of dehydration should be reassessed in order to confirm a complete rehydration. Fluid loss should not be corrected rapidly. Cerebral edema as well as convulsions is serious risks during rapid rehydration, so correction of deficit should be achieved slowly and gradually over 48 hours and should not be decreased to less than 12 mEq/L. To prevent cerebral edema and convulsion, individuals with hypernatremia should be managed in such a way that the reduction rate of serum sodium occurs at approximately 10 to 12 mmol/L/24 hr. Cerebral edema and seizures can be consequences of rapid correction of serum sodium level in these patients in whom the rate of fluid and sodium administration are inappropriate
This is a pilot randomized-controlled trial assessing the utility of ondansetron for improving pediatric pre-colonoscopy bowel prep outcomes using the boston bowel preparation score, as well as assessing the impact on patient experience of bowel preparation.
