View clinical trials related to Physical Dependence.
Filter by:Physiotherapy is a discipline which englobe not only the rehabilitation of physical pathologies but also their prevention. That is why this study pretends to upgrade this part of the physical therapy specialty while prove new therapies using innovation technologies in people with any physical neurological disease. The main problem that this study pretends to solve is the necessity of develop new activities to improve quality of life and integration in people with any physical neurological disease. People with any neurological disease used to present visual problems, pain, fatigue, functional dependence, and a bad quality of life and it appears that exercise habits could improve all these deficiencies. However, how could people with any physical neurological disease participate in an integrated way in nowadays physical activities? The main objective of this study is to prove the effectiveness on visual acuity, quality of life, pain decreasing, functional independence and fatigue of physical therapy modalities in people with any physical neurological disease. The experiment will take part with 128 participants, divided equally in control and experimental groups. Both are going to receive adapted yoga sessions but only experiment group is going to test oculomotor therapy. Descriptive investigation would take part at the end of the intervention to analyze all results.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to study the effectiveness of protein supplements in frailty improvement, muscle strength, physical performance, energy intake and body composition of pre-frail elderly people. in Selangor, Malaysia. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does PS intervention significantly affect in frailty improvement, muscle strength, physical performance, energy intake and body composition of elderly people? For the interventional group, Participants will receive 30g of SUSTINEX Hydrolyzed Whey Protein. The participants will be asked to add it to their food or drinks to reach the goal of consuming 30g daily. For control group, participants will receive no intervention- usual care, will receive the standard care of the clinic without supplemented with PS.
The purpose of this study is to design a companion booklet and pilot test it with a voice-controlled intelligent personal assistants (VIPA), like Google Home or Amazon Alexa, to provide homebound older adult patients with skills and tools to help manage social isolation.
This observational study aims to assess the relationship between muscle strength and physical function in critical ill patients. Grip and quadriceps strengths are measured using a standardized protocol of dynamometry. Physical function is assessed using the validated ICU mobility scale.
This is a multicenter, multicultural, randomized control trial. Participants will be recruited from 10 centers located in Italy, Germany, Austria, Spain, United Kingdom, Belgium, Sweden, Japan, South Korea and Australia. The main objective of the study is to examine the efficacy of a sensor-based platform (my-AHA platform) to assess frailty risks and to deliver tailored interventions in order to prevent in elderly subjects conversion from a pre-frail status to a frailty status.
Opioid medications are commonly used for pain relief. When given over time, physical dependence can occur. This results in unpleasant side effects (such as agitation and nausea) if opioid medications are suddenly stopped. This study aims to test the use of the drug ondansetron to reduce the symptoms associated with opioid withdrawal and to prevent the progression of opioid physical dependence, thereby allowing future investigators to better test the role of physical dependence in the development of addiction and also possibly improving acceptance of abstinence-based programs for addiction.
