Filter by:The common cold is a major cause of nasal obstruction and reaches children and adults two or more times a year. At the moment, there is no cure for the common cold, and therefore the reduction of symptoms is the focus of the treatment. The study has parallel distribution design, with two equal groups, in which one group will be treated by a combination of naphazoline hydrocloride + pheniramine maleate + panthenol and the other will receive treatment with naphazoline hydrocloride.
The objective of the study is to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy in patients utilizing the aura6000 System for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
The present study aims to assess the natural immunity to specific microbial antigens in healthy subjects and in subjects with stable COPD aged between 45-75 years.
Proprioceptive weighting changes may explain differences in postural control performance. In addition, the respiratory movement has a disturbing effect on postural balance. Postural balance seems to be impaired in individuals with respiratory disorders. Besides the essential role of respiration, the diaphragm may also play an important role in the control of the trunk and postural balance. Deficits in proprioception are found in a subgroup of patients with low back pain. In addition, disorders of respiration have been identified as strongly related to low back pain. The aim of the study is to clarify whether inspiratory muscle training has a positive effect on proprioceptive postural control in individuals with recurrent low back pain.
The main purpose of the study is to see how safe GSK1995057 is and how well it is tolerated after dosing. The study will also investigate how GSK1995057 is taken up, metabolised (chemically broken down), distributed through the body and excreted, and what some of the effects of the study drug are.
To demonstrate the additional benefit of roflumilast when added on to fixed-dose combination (FDC) LABA/ICS in the reduction of exacerbations in subjects with severe to very severe COPD.
In survivors of extreme prematurity to 36 weeks Post Menstrual Age (PMA), specific biologic, physiologic and clinical data obtained during the initial hospitalization will predict respiratory morbidity as defined by respiratory health care utilization and respiratory symptoms, between discharge and 1 year corrected age. This protocol describes a collaboratively developed multicenter study of very preterm infants from birth through the time of discharge from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and up to 1 year of age, corrected for the degree of prematurity.
The purpose of this study is to detect adverse drug reactions for long-term use (particularly clinically significant adverse drug reactions) occurring in clinical settings, to examine factors likely to affect the safety and efficacy in the Japanese asthma patients who are treated with fluticasone propionate/salmeterol xinafoate.
The purpose of this post-marketing surveillance is to detect adverse drug reactions (particularly clinically significant adverse drug reactions) occurring in clinical settings, to examine factors likely to affect the safety and efficacy in the Japanese asthma patients treated with fluticasone propionate and salmeterol xinafoate.
Acute respiratory infections are the leading cause of hospitalization in premature infants worldwide. Severity rates are particularly high in developing countries. Numerous viruses can cause severe disease, but the most frequent agent of hospitalization is respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). In a recent study in Argentina, 58% of RSV infected VLBW infants required hospitalization and 19% required mechanical ventilation. One every twenty infected infants died. Unlike industrialized nations, VLBW infants in developing countries often lack access to prophylaxis against RSV with a commercially available monoclonal antibody (palivizumab). No vaccine or preventive intervention is available against any respiratory virus for infants younger than 6 months of age in developing countries and the public sector of most middle-income countries. The protective role of breastfeeding against respiratory infections in developing countries is well established. But while similar beneficial effects have been described for premature infants, the dropout rate for breastfeeding in families exposed to the uncertainties and stress of the early months of life in the neonatal intensive care unit is very high. The World Health Organization recommends the use of Human Milk Donor Banks to feed infants that cannot be breastfed by their own mothers. These banks are established with the purpose of collecting, screening, processing (including pasteurizing), testing and distributing donated human milk. The potential benefit of donated milk against acute disease elicited by RSV is unknown. The investigators propose to study the role of supplemental donated human milk in the prevention of hospitalizations caused by RSV in non-breastfeeding premature infants. Since the investigators expect the benefits of breast milk to extend beyond protection against RSV, the effect of human milk against respiratory infections elicited by other viruses will also be evaluated.
