Filter by:Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an unpredictable adverse hepatic reaction to a medication used in its therapeutic dose. DILI is the second most common cause of itching in adult Hepatology after biliary obstruction. In particular cholestatic or mixed pattern types of DILI (in which bile flow from the liver is impaired) are associated with long-lasting effects as well as reduced quality of life. There is therefore an urgent need to determine the incidence and natural history of itching in DILI and establish a network of centres that will form a basis for a clinical trial to investigate a novel intervention to treat these.
This a multicentre study that consists of a 12-week double-blind period, and a 14-week open-label extension period and a 1-week follow-up period.
Burn is a serious trauma that causes acute damage to the skin and subcutaneous tissues due to the effect of heat, electricity, radiation, physical, and chemical substances. It has been reported that the incidence of itching is high in burn patients during the maturation stage of wound healing. The literature suggests that in managing the symptom of itching, skin hydration support along with cold application methods can also be used. The integrity of the skin, the duration, frequency, characteristics, areas of itching, and identifying conditions that increase or decrease itching are important for managing itching. This study is planned to be conducted with a randomized controlled design to examine the effect of applying cold gel packs to burn areas of burn patients during the maturation stage on itching. This researcher's hypothesis is that burn patients who applied cold gel packs to burn areas during the maturation phase had lower itching severity (frequency, duration, intensity) than those who did not.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of CLE-400 topical gel for the treatment of chronic pruritus in adult subjects with Notalgia Paresthetica (NP).
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and potency of lidocaine infusion as a preventive measure on pruritus response after injection of 200 micro gram morphine with bupivacaine subarachnoid block, spinal anesthesia, in cesarean section.
This project is to develop a national registry for CP patients. Patients admitted to this registry will be examined and documented with PROs, physician-based assessments, blood tests, 3D photodocumentation and, if indicated, by skin biopsies, neurophysiological testing and radiological imaging at defined timepoints. The data collection will allow deepened insights into patient needs, different mechanisms and courses of pruritic conditions, treatment outcomes and treatment-related safety issues. In addition, the collection of clinical, biological and image-based data may be used for retrospective analyses.
Pain, itching, hypertrophic scar formation after wound healing in burn patients complications, sleep disturbances in patients, anxiety, depression, and daily life It may disrupt activities and deterioration in quality of life. Liquid petroleum jelly and olive oil have no side effects, moisturizing properties, or wound-healing treatment of burns due to their positive effects on symptoms such as itching. can be used to alleviate burns. The project found the use of liquid petroleum jelly and olive oil to determine the effect on itching and scarring in burn patients. After burns reduction of symptoms such as itching, dryness, hypertrophic scarring, and patient comfort. Provision of care is a part of nursing care. In studies, itching and scarring there is insufficient evidence regarding the treatment methods applied for its treatment is observed. In addition, the effect of olive oil and liquid petroleum jelly on itching and scarring no scientific study was found. The results of the project were found to be significant in terms of post-burn itching providing evidence of hypertrophic scar management and contributing to ongoing studies is expected to be found. Since there are no similar studies in the literature, a preliminary study with 24 patient applications will be made. In line with the data obtained from the pre-application, the sample calculation will be made and the application will continue by making the necessary arrangements. Patients will be divided into experimental and control groups by simple randomization. All patient groups individual data collection forms on the first day; 12 individual data collection forms on the first day, 15th day, first, second, and third months Itemized Itch Severity Scale, Patient and Observer Scar Scale to be applied in Burn Patients and the wound area will be photographed. Patients in the control group will be given no application will be made. Liquid petroleum jelly and olive oil group before the study training will be given and they will massage the recommended product twice a day for 3 months and will be asked to record them. The data obtained at the end of the project will be statistically analyzed and results will be presented.
Pruritus, post traumatic stress disorder and perceived stress are common issues in burn patients. The correlation between the three is unclear so far. This study will collect data among adult patients with hypertrophic scars 21 days after the burn event has occurred. Using a Chinese version of the 5D itch scale,Chinese version of the posttraumatic diagnostic scale and Perceived Stress Scale to investigate self-reported postburn pruritus,post traumatic stress disorder and perceived stress. The patients will be wearing the smart watch for one month to collect data on their stress levels. This data will be used to analyze the correlation between posttraumatic stress syndrome, perceived stress and scar pruritus. There will be two rounds of data collection. The first will be when the smart watch is issued to patients, and the second will be at the end of the one month period.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the CeraVe® moisturizing cream's efficiency on the improvement of skin barrier in patients with chronic elderly pruritus. The main questions it aims to answer are: type of study: clinical trial participant population:in patients with chronic elderly pruritus [question 1] Evaluate the CeraVe® moisturizing cream's efficiency on the improvement of skin barrier in patients with chronic elderly pruritus, including improvements of redness, dryness/squamation, itching, burning, tingling, tightness and other factors. [question 2] Evaluate the tolerance of CeraVe® Moisturising Cream. [question 3] Evaluate the product experience of patients who were utilizing CeraVe® Moisturising Cream. This trial utilizing simple randomization, the left and right calves of paticipants were randomly divided into test side(applicating CeraVe® Moisturising Cream ) and control side (applicating Standard Cream)according to random number representation. Grouping results were double-blinded.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of positive anti BP180 and/or anti BP230 serology in the serum of patients with chronic and diffuse pruritus for at least 1 month under immunotherapy and in the absence of obvious pruritic dermatosis (e.g. scabies, contact eczema...).
