Filter by:Systemic sclerosis (SSc) has heterogeneous symptoms and significant medical morbidity. Recently, itch was described as a symptom of SSc (prevalence of 42,6%). To the investigators knowledge, no study yet has examined the clinical features of itch neither had used a specific itch-related quality of life (QoL) scales in patients with SSc. The objectives were to evaluate the prevalence of pruritus, its characteristics and its impact on the QoL in those patients. In this descriptive study, patients followed for SSc in the departments of dermatology, rheumatology, internal medicine and pulmonology at the University Hospital of Brest were included. Participants received a questionnaire including questions about the clinical features of pruritus and 2 scores (5-D itch scale, ItchyQol).
The objective of this study is to have better knowledge about sensations of patients with skin carcinomas and to have data about characteristics of pain and pruritus . All patients presenting with a suspicions lesion for skin carcinomas will be included and will respond to a questionnaire. Demographics data, and histological data about skin carcinomas will be collected.
This is an open-label multicenter, long-term extension safety study to evaluate the safety of IV CR845 administered after each dialysis session over a Treatment Period of up to 52 weeks.
Whereas pruritus is a major symptom in bullous pemphigoid, its characteristics and its impact on quality of life have been little studied. The objective of this study is to learn more about pruritus characteristics of patients with bullous pemphigoid, and in consequence to better understand the pathophysiology of pruritus, and then to better treat pruritus in this condition.
This is a prospective randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to compare the incidence and intensity of ITM-induced pruritus and nausea/vomiting using pre-emptive IV ondansetron, followed by scheduled Around The Clock (ATC) ondansetron vs. our control group, where pruritus and PONV are treated with PRN only medications.
Chronic Itch is a debilitating condition affecting many people. Currently, there are no FDA-approved treatments. Apremilast is an FDA-approved oral medication used to successfully treat the inflammatory skin disorder psoriasis and the inflammatory disorder psoriatic arthritis. This study examines if apremiliast taken twice daily relieves chronic itch.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and dose response of SK-1405 for the treatment of subjects with uremic pruritus receiving hemodialysis, during 2 weeks of treatment.
Pruritus is the commonest side effect of intrathecal morphine especially in parturient, but the exact mechanism of pruritus is not clear. Many mechanisms have been suggested. Among these mechanisms is the activation of the 5-HT3 receptors by the intrathecally injected morphine.
In this study we would like to identify demographic and individual risk factors that place parturients at a higher risk for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and itching following administered neuraxial morphine for cesarean section. Our primary objective is to develop a reliable predictive neuraxial morphine induced nausea and vomiting (NMINV) and itching model.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential desensitising effects of repeated applications of capsaicin, trans-cinnamaldehyde and L-menthol on thermal, mechanical and chemical sensory stimulations.
