Filter by:The study will aim to show that there is a superiority of 18F-FDG PET/CT compared to labeled leukocyte scintigraphy in patients with a malignant otitis externa.
The malignant external otitis is a rare disease which arises more frequently at the elderly and the diabetics patients. To our knowledge, there are few data and it is not wellc known byclinicians. Nevertheless it exposes to neurological complications potentially serious and crippling.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a combination of an antibiotic plus a corticosteroid is safe and effective in treating AOE
Acute otitis media (AOM), defined as acute inflammation in the middle ear, is a leading cause of health encounters and antimicrobial prescriptions in children worldwide. Diagnosis of AOM is often dependent on a brief view of the tympanic membrane in an uncooperative child's ear canal. As a consequence, AOM may be inappropriately diagnosed when visualization of the tympanic membrane (ear drum) is not optimal. Improved methods for visualizing the tympanic membrane including capturing still images and recording video of the ear exam would be beneficial in the diagnosis and management of otic complaints, including acute and chronic otitis media. Use of a smartphone otoscope has the potential to optimize clinician ability to manage otic complaints, visualize the tympanic membrane, and support antimicrobial stewardship. This study will be conducted as a randomized control study in two affiliated children's hospital emergency departments. Twenty volunteer clinicians will be randomly assigned to use either a smartphone otoscope or a conventional otoscope for all otic examinations for a 6-month period.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, Phase 3 study in which eligible subjects with acute otitis externa (AOE) will be randomized to receive a single administration of either 12 mg OTO-201 or Sham-Control (empty syringe) to the external auditory canal of the affected ear(s).
In this observational study, insights regarding the tolerability and influence on the quality of life of the topical treatment with Ectoin Ear Spray compared to Normison ear spray shall be gained under real life conditions in patients with chronic eczematous irritations and pruritus of the outer ear canal.
This is a 1-month, multicenter, open-label study in subjects with unilateral otitis externa. Eligible subjects will receive a single dose of 6 mg OTO-201 to the affected ear. The study is designed to characterize safety, procedural factors and clinical effect of OTO-201 administered in subjects with otitis externa.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the clinical therapeutic non-inferiority of EXL CDOS to commercially available Ciprofloxacin 0.3% and Dexamethasone 0.1% Sterile Otic Suspension (Ciprodex®, Alcon) in the treatment of acute otitis externa (AOE) when administered twice daily for 7 days.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of AL-60371, 0.3% Otic Suspension relative to AL-60371 Vehicle based on clinical cures at test-of-cure (TOC) for the treatment of acute otitis externa (AOE).
