Filter by:The Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder better characterized by an urge to move the legs at rest. Although treatments are available, many patients experience periods of symptoms relief and exacerbation. Whether this is due to the natural history of the disease or to health-related behaviors of daily life is presently unknown. The primary objective is to examine the feasibility of mobile technology to assess RLS symptoms severity fluctuations in daily life by collecting real-time data. The secondary objectives will be to examine the validity of this technic in the context of RLS and to use these real-time data to identify daily life risk factors for symptom onset or aggravation.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the relationship between perioperative electroencephalogram and emergence agitation in the nasal surgery. Previous studies showed that low frequency band wave activity increased during emergence delirium in pediatric patients. It is still not enough to explain the relationship between emergence agitation and electroencephalogram in adults. Researchers will demonstrate the relationship between parameters related electroencephalogram and emergence agitation in adults undergoing nasal surgery.
This is a multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled Phase 2 study of an oral combination of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) compared to placebo over 12 weeks. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment with an oral combination of THC/CBD will reduce agitation hospice care-eligible patients with agitation and dementia as measured by the Cohen Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) when compared to placebo at 2 weeks. This study will enroll approximately 150 participants of any gender at least 40 years of age who are hospice care-eligible with agitation and dementia (HAD). Participants will be randomized (50:50) to either active study drug (T2:C100) or placebo. The double-blind period of this study is 12 weeks. A 24 week optional open-label extension will be offered to participants who complete the double-period.
Pediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy usually have a high incidence of postoperative EA, which increases the risk of developing postoperative airway obstruction and respiratory depression due to anatomical characteristics of operative location and increased susceptibility to opioid analgesics. the study will compare between nebulized and intravenous bolus of dexmedetomidine as a prophylaxis against postanesthetic emergence agitation in children undergoing tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy or adeno-tonsillectomy procedures.
This is an open-label trial in Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) patients inadequately treated with standard therapy, defined by an IRLS score greater than 15. Investigators hypothesize that the study drug, Pitolisant (Wakix), may improve RLS symptoms.
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurological movement disorder characterized by uncomfortable and uncontrollable sensations, usually in the legs, that increase at rest, and an urge to move the legs or other affected extremities. The exact cause of RLS is unknown, but there are idiopathic and secondary forms of RLS associated with various medical conditions such as anemia, pregnancy, uremia, neuropathies, rheumatoid arthritis, parkinson's disease, spinocerebellar ataxia, and neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis. Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is a severe inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. NMO, once considered a variant of multiple sclerosis, is now recognized as a separate disease entity. In 2004, the water channel protein-specific antibody called aquaporin 4 (AQP4) was found to cause NMO, leading to the identification of NMO as a separate disease. When initially described, the disease was thought to show only necrotic and demyelinating lesions in the optic nerve and spinal cord. It was therefore thought that NMO would preferentially only attack the optic nerves and spinal cord, not the brain. However, over the years, evidence from various studies has proven that various parts of the brain are also affected during the course of the disease. In addition, some patients showing features of the disease were found to be seronegative for anti-AQP4 antibodies. These findings necessitated the need to introduce a new term "neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD)" to describe all the features of the disease. Although the feeling of restlessness in the legs is frequently reported as a sensory symptom by people with NMOSD, there are limited publications to investigate the relationship between RLS and NMOSD. The primary aim of the study is to determine the frequency and severity of RLS in people with NMOSD. The second aim of the study is to compare the presence and severity of RLS, sleep quality, daytime sleepiness level, quality of life, fatigue and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) results in people with NMOSD. The third aim of the study is to compare the cognitive functions of people with RLS positive and negative NMOSD. People with NMOSD who came to Dokuz Eylul University Medical Faculty Hospital Neurology Department MS Polyclinic for their routine check-ups, who volunteered to participate, will be included in the study.
This trial is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AXS-05 compared to placebo for the treatment of agitation associated with Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of an oral medication, IGC-AD1 that is a natural THC-based (Tetrahydrocannabinol) formulation, administered in micro doses, twice a day, on symptomatological Agitation, in patients with mild to severe dementia from Alzheimer's.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of masupirdine compared to placebo for the treatment of agitation in participants with dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
Adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy are generally performed during childhood to help reduce snoring and improve sleep or caused by recurrent infection.And insufficient analgesia may result in postoperative sore throat, difficulty swallowing, aspiration, delayed discharge, spasm, and agitation. Remedial analgesic drugs such as morphine and opioids may lead to postoperative respiration depression, desaturation and vomiting.Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a peripheral stimulation, which is a modern therapy derived from traditional acupuncture. Relevant clinical trials show that it can effectively relieve pain, and has slight side-effects.However, most of these clinical trials are conducted in adults, and there have been few clinical trials involving children. For this reason, in line with good tolerance and less side effects of TEAS, ,this study is designed to enhance the therapeutic effect of adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy pain by means of taking advantage of the skin-sticking electro-acupuncture.It is also hoped that this study can certify if TEAS can reduce the amount and side effects of analgesic drugs, such as morphine, and improve the postoperative safety of children, and moreover, explore the possible mechanisms by which TEAS relieve pain in children.
