NCT ID: NCT05749159 Recruiting - Hiccup Clinical Trials

New Physitherapy or Alternative Therapy for Hiccup

HICCUP
Start date: March 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hiccup is a common symptom, and it is currently believed that hiccups result from diaphragmatic spasm, with onset ranging from minutes to days. Some patients may terminate on their own, or by ways such as gasping. For some patients with duration longer than 1 day, even longer than 2 days, medications may be needed, mainly: metoclopramide, eperisone hydrochloride tablets, etc. Acupuncture is also effective for some patients. Surgical treatment may be required for some clinically intractable hiccups. However, for the above interventions or treatment means, the current efficacy still needs to be improved. In the previous clinical experience, we create a new physical clinic protocol which could terminate the hiccup symptom onset instantaneously without adding extra cost to the patient, and the physiotherapy method was convenient and effective. To further validate the superiority, safety of this novel physical therapy regimen, we designed a randomised controlled, prospective, single centre clinical study aimed at comparing the efficacy and safety of the novel physical therapy with conventional pharmacotherapy in patients with hiccups.

Educational Materials for Hiccups

Start date: December 6, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a research study about hiccup educational materials. The purpose of this study is to learn whether this type of research can be done.

NCT ID: NCT04366076 Completed - Fetal Conditions Clinical Trials

Does a Relationship Exist Between Fetal Hiccups and Computerised Cardiotocography Parameters?

Start date: April 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

BACKGROUND: The physiological function of fetal hiccups and its correlation with fetal well-being is unexplored. No previous study examines the correlation between the maternal perception of the fetal hiccups and the antepartum cardiotocography. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the correlation between the fetal hiccups and antepartum computerised cardiotocography parameters, in nonlaboring term singleton pregnancies.

Treatment of Chemotherapy-related Hiccups With Baclofen

Start date: December 12, 2018
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Hiccup is one of the common side effects of chemotherapy. Intractable hiccups seriously affect patients' rest and eating, reduce the quality of life, and increasingly attract the attention of oncologists. At present, drugs or methods for treating chemotherapy-related hiccups are generally ineffective, with short remission time, serious adverse reactions, and unsatisfactory clinical effects. Baclofen produces skeletal muscle relaxation and was originally used in patients with spinal cord injury, and has since been used to treat intractable hiccups caused by diaphragmatic spasm. This study was an open-label, randomized, prospective study comparing the efficacy and adverse effects of baclofen versus metoclopramide in the treatment of chemotherapy-related hiccups. Patients with hiccup after chemotherapy were randomly divided into two groups. One group was treated with baclofen and the other group was treated with metoclopramide. The efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared.Ineffective in the two groups will cross to another group and then observe the efficacy.

NCT ID: NCT01974024 Completed - Clinical trials for Dexamethasone-induced Hiccup in Chemotherapy

Dexamethasone-induced Hiccup in Chemotherapy Patients Treated by Methylprednisolone Rotation

Start date: October 1, 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The aims of this study were to investigate the feasibility of methylprednisolone rotation as treatment of DIH.

NCT ID: NCT01277731 Withdrawn - Dexamethasone Clinical Trials

Methylprednisolone Replacement for Dexamethasone-induced Hiccup

Start date: July 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Dexamethasone is a potent synthetic member of the corticosteroid. It is given to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy to counteract emetic side effect and essential drug for the chemotherapy-treated patients. Hiccup is common adverse effect of corticosteroid especially on dexamethasone varying from 3% to 60% of given patients. Discontinuance of dexamethasone relieves most hiccupping cases, but vomiting/nausea rates increase. It is not clear whether hiccup side effect is limited to the dexamethasone only or other corticosteroid group. Methylprednisolone, synthetic corticosteroid as similar as dexamethasone, could be considered as antiemetic agent for the patients with receiving chemotherapy. The investigators perform this pilot study under hypothesis that replacing dexamethasone with methylprednisolone could maintain antiemetic role and prevent hiccup.
