Filter by:The InMode radio frequency Pro System with the Morpheus8 Applicator is a computerized system generating radio frequency energy, based on the underlying technology of Fractional RF. The Morpheus8 Applicator and 24 pin tip is used for the treatment of primary hyperhidrosis of the axillae
The aim of this study is to evaluate persons/patients with different skin diseases or pain to evaluate whether unhealthy perfectionism, stress, anxiety, impostor phenomenon (inability to realistically assess your competence and skills) and lack of self-compassion (a positive attitude towards ourselves), have impact on symptoms, handling, and treatment regarding some dermatological diseases/pain.
This study will build on data from mice and humans implicating TRPV1 nociceptors in the pathogenesis of the type-17 chronic inflammatory skin disease Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). In this study, the investigators will test the hypothesis that inhibiting neuropeptide activity with botulinum toxin reduces pathogenic inflammation.
The TODAY trial is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical oxybutynin deodorant for use in patients with axillary hyperhidrosis.
Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which sweating is in excess of that required for normal regulation of body temperature. Commonly affected areas in primary hyperhidrosis include axillae, palms and soles. Secondary hyperhidrosis can affect scalp, face, neck, back, groin and legs. Hyperhidrosis can negatively impact, employment, relationships, or other aspects of quality of life. The investigators propose to investigate the use of a unique image-guided laser to specifically ablate eccrine sweat glands.
The standard treatment for palmar hyperhidrosis is bilateral sequential thoracic sympathectomy. High rates of compensatory sweating due to the surgical procedure are described in the literature. In the search for a reduction in this side effect, it is possible that unilateral sympathectomy in the dominant side obtains acceptable results and leads to less compensatory sweating with improvement of the quality of life. The aim of this study it to compare the intensity of compensatory sweating due to the standard treatment, that is, bilateral sequential videothoracoscopic sympathectomy in relation to unilateral thoracic sympathectomy on the dominant side.
Hyperhidrosis is defined as excessive sweating and affects about 2.8 % of the population. It has been shown to have a deleterious effect on the quality of life measured using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) which is one of the most widely used dermatology-specific quality of life instruments. This is comparable to the effect on quality of life in patients with severe psoriasis of the skin as well as to nodulocystic acne patients before treatment with oral isotretinoin. The clinical effect of Botulinum Toxin (Btx) A has been established in three randomized controlled trials (RCT) in axillary hyperhidrosis. One RCT has indicated a positive effect in palmar hyperhidrosis. Although there is increasing evidence that Btx A and B have a similar effect on hyperhidrosis of other parts of the body (ie hyperhidrosis of the face, trunk, groin and feet) which is reported in case-reports and open studies there is still a great need for more controlled studies. This is why we will carry out this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the clinical effect and safety of Btx A in palmar, plantar and inguinal (groins/buttocks) hyperhidrosis and the clinical effect and safety of Btx B in craniofacial and truncal hyperhidrosis, respectively. Besides using the DLQI instrument we will also study Btx A/B to elucidate the impact of this treatment on quality of life using a generic instrument, the effect on anxiety and depressive symptoms, sweating, and patients´global assessment of therapy.
Lumbar sympathetic ganglion block is used for several neuropathic pain syndromes. The best method of lumbar sympathetic ganglion block is not established. The investigators would compare two methods of lumbar sympathetic ganglion block. One is modified Reid method which's entry point is 7~7.5cm from midline of spinous process of lumbar spine. The other is angular method which's entry angle is 30 degree from anterior-posterior view of C-arm. Comparison modified Reid method with angular method would be helpful for finding best method of lumbar sympathetic ganglion block.
