Filter by:The overarching goal of this study is to support the "real world" assessment of strategies used to foster adoption of several highly efficacious evidence-based practices in healthcare systems that provide care to critically ill adults with known health disparities. Investigators will specifically evaluate two discrete strategies grounded in behavioral economic and implementation science theory (i.e., real-time audit and feedback and registered nurse implementation facilitation) to increase adoption of the ABCDEF bundle in critically ill adults.
The aim of this within-subject randomized study is to examine the efficacy of a VR immersive game for pain and anxiety management of children during the subcutaneous injection of dupilumab for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. We will recruit children from 6 to 17 years. The main research question is: 1. Does VR immersive game will generate less anxiety and pain than standard procedures, for children receiving dupilumab injection for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis? 2. Does the occurence of side effects is similar between both study groups? Participants will be randomized according to either sequences: VR-Standard care or Standard care-VR. During the VR sequence, participants will be playing the VR immersive game during the injection. During the Standard care sequence participants will not benefit from any pain management but passive distraction tools will be offered (and documented) to children. The investigators will take measures of pain and anxiety, using validated scales, before and after the procedures at each sequence.
Postoperative pain after cesarean delivery is common and affects on both mothers and children. The goals of this retrospective observational study aim to predict pain score and opioid consumption of index cesarean delivery from pain score and opioid consumption of previous cesarean delivery.
The purpose of this research is to determine if a PET/MRI scan using FDG can accurately identify the source of chronic pain. Identifying the source of pain may help doctors treat chronic pain more effectively. Approximately 128 participants will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for up to 12 months.
Although spinal anesthesia, which is increasingly common today, is a fast and reliable method, many patients are afraid of this procedure due to their fear of needles. Different methods have been studied to reduce pain during spinal needle insertion. One of the methods used to reduce pain due to needle insertion is ShotBlocker. This non-invasive, very simple to use application involves minimal risk and can be easily integrated into the application. For this reason, the research will be conducted to determine the effect of shot blockers on procedure-related pain, satisfaction and comfort in patients who will undergo spinal anesthesia.
The goal of this clinical trial, is to test out the efficacy of using Articaine only as a local anesthesia as buccal infiltration to extract lower molar teeth. Study will be performed in patients visiting Riyadh Elm University clinics seeking extraction of lower molars bilaterally, in each visit one molar tooth will be extracted using Ariticaine and the second visit with Lidocaine, pain level will be monitored and documented. This study may be helpful in providing scientific information to the oral maxillofacial surgeons which will assist them in choosing the best local anesthetic agent, and possibly substituting using inferior alveolar nerve block with infiltration only when extracting the mandibular posterior teeth.
Venous leg ulcer is the final stage of chronic venous disease and only develops due to advanced chronic venous insufficiency. The problems caused by venous disease are initially minor and often neglected, but can impact the quality of life of patients. The prevalence of leg ulcers is estimated at 1% of the general population and 3% to 5% of subjects over 65 years old. Its prevalence increases with age in both men and women. Managing chronic ulcers requires a certain number of care procedures, including debridement. The act of treatment by mechanical debridement is little relieved by the analgesics given beforehand, and can be painful, with risks of bleeding. Musicotherapy, particularly the U-shaped method, has shown its effectiveness in the treatment of pain and anxiety in several areas (geriatrics, intensive care, rheumatology, oncology, etc.). The standardized musicotherapy method of the U-shaped sequence was developed and initially evaluated by clinical studies coordinated by the INSERM unit U1061 (Pr. Jacques Touchon; Dr. Stéphane Guétin). Following the publication of numerous controlled, randomized studies presenting results on the effectiveness in the treatment of pain and anxiety, a digital application was developed in order to standardize the method. The Music Care health application is now a Class 1 Medical Device, with CE marking obtained. This "U-shaped sequence" is standardized and has been clinically validated, which makes Music Care a unique tool available for pain relief. No studies have been found in the literature regarding the use of music therapy during debridement care.
The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the effects of Christian and Islamic heart-centred spiritual meditation to mindfulness meditation and waitlist control conditions, respectively, in healthy adults. The potential effects will be studied at multiple levels, with a focus on psychophysiology, cognition, mental health, and social functioning.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare how a program of proprioceptive exercises for the wrist could influence in pain, functionality and quality of life in people that have suffered a wrist fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Evaluate the effect of a specific proprioceptive program on pain and functionality. - Study the relationship between proprioception deficit and functionality. Intervention will be: - Control group: participants of this group are going to receive only standard rehabilitation program after wrist fracture. - Experimental group: participants of this group are going to receive standard rehabilitation program after distal radius fracture and a specific proprioceptive program. Researchers will compare control and experimental group to see if a implantation of a proprioceptive program for the wrist has benefits on pain, function and quality of life.
This randomized clinical trial will aim to evaluate the effect of DryShield isolation (DSI) and Rubber Dam isolation (RDI) systems on arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), behavior, subjective pain and discomfort, and time required among children with different airway patency based on Modified Mallampati classification (MMC). Healthy, cooperative 6-12-year-old children who need fissure sealant in at least two contralateral fully erupted permanent first molars will be included. The airway patency will be determined using MMC by two trained and calibrated dentists. Participants will be categorized based on their MMC score into patent airway (MMC Class I and II) and non-patent airway (MMC Class III and IV). During the treatment, the dental procedure will be videotaped, and the vital signs, including SpO2, HR, and BP, will be recorded every three minutes. A Validated Arabic Version of the Wong-Baker Pain Rating and the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scales will be utilized to record the participants' pain levels. In contrast, Frankl's Behavior will record their behavior during the dental procedure. Following the dental treatment, the participants' subjective pain and discomfort will be evaluated using a previously validated Arabic interview questionnaire.
