Filter by:Objective: This study was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of oral care with black mulberry syrup on oral mucositis healing in individuals with COPD. Study Design: The quantitative part of the study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study, the qualitative section was conducted by in-depth interview method. The study was performed with 40 patients who were hospitalized in the Chest Diseases Clinic. In addition to the standard practice of the clinic, the individuals in the intervention group gargled with 5 ml black mulberry syrup and waited average one minute and then swallow it. They did this application 3 times a day after meals. 10 individuals in the intervention group were interviewed by using a semi-structured interview form.
The LENTO study sample includes the caregivers and their clients living in eastern Finland. The aims of this study are 1. to study the nutritional status, oral health, coping, functional capacity and quality of life 2. to find out how individual nutrition and oral health counseling received for caregivers affect on the nutritional status and oral health of caregivers and their clients 3. develop an operating model to maintain good nutrition and oral health.
The purpose of the phase 3, clinical study is to determine if GC4419 (avasopasem manganese) administered prior to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) reduces the severity of radiation induced oral mucositis in patients who have been diagnosed with locally advanced, non-metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
The purpose of this study is to determine if RRx-001, which is added on to the cisplatin and radiation treatment, reduces the duration or length of severe oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancers. All patients in this study will receive 7 weeks of standard of care radiation therapy given with the chemotherapy agent, cisplatin. Patients in arms 1, 2 and 3 will also receive RRx-001 on different schedules.
To assess the efficacy of SGX942 compared to placebo in decreasing the duration of severe oral mucositis in patients receiving chemoradiation treatment for the treatment of head and neck cancer
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of Dentoxol® mouthrinse in reducing the severity of oral mucositis secondary to radiation therapy for head and neck cancer.
The surrounding controversies both advocating and simultaneously opposing the use of vitamin C, mostly extrapolating animal models to human models, it has not been used individually to assess the severity of oral mucositis during chemoradiotherapy. The present study is undertaken to evaluate the effect of vitamin C oral supplements in assessing the severity of oral mucositis during chemoradiotherapy for oral cancer.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of melatonin oral gel compared to placebo in the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing concurrent chemoradiation. Other objectives are to assess the Quality of Life (QoL), to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of melatonin oral gel administration, in all cases compared to placebo in patients with head and neck cancer and oral mucositis secondary to concurrent chemoradiation.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a novel oral care protocol on the severity and pain of oral mucositis in patients receiving radiation and/or chemotherapy for head and neck cancers. The secondary objectives are to characterize the microbiome associated with oral mucositis, measure salivary proinflammatory cytokines, and evaluate other clinical indicators of the intervention. Participants will be enrolled prior to beginning radiation and/or chemotherapy, and will be randomized to receive either the oral health protocol or standard of care oral hygiene.
Low Level Laser Therapy has been used for a few years in some pediatric hospital centers for chemo- and radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis care. It may promote ulceration's healing, limits mucositis severity and associated pain. As its use is recommended in the treatment of radio induced mucositis in adults, the level of evidence in pediatric studies does not allow a precise treatment protocol. The investigators present here the protocol of a feasibility study in the haemato-oncology department of the Children University Hospital of Toulouse, with the view to a future efficacy study.
