Filter by:The ongoing COVID-19 pandemics has put an overwhelming pressure on the healthcare systems of many European countries. Such a situation has potentially led to delayed and impaired access to appropriate treatment for patients affected by other severe, non-COVID-19-related conditions, including cardiovascular diseases. This resulted in a reported lower admission, but higher mortality rate for AMI patients. Such a situation might be explained by many factors, including unavailability of early reperfusion therapy and late hospital presentation of AMI patients due to a general anxiety related to the COVID-19 contagious risk of the hospital environment. As a matter of fact, during this year of pandemics, several case reports suggested a new, significant surge of post-AMI mechanical complications, sometimes describing patients admitted in too severe conditions to consider surgical repair a viable option, and therefore inevitably undergone an unfavorable outcome. Therefore, we decided to involve the large network of European centers already participating to the "Caution Study 1", in order to study the impact of COVID-19 pandemics on the outcomes, incidence and treatments of post-AMI mechanical complications.
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of 17-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P) therapy on the latency period in pregnant women with Preterm premature rupture of membranes.
Previous research suggests that general practitioners find handling patients with shoulder pain difficult and that the current care for shoulder pain is not in line with the best available evidence (1).This project aims to assess the effectiveness, costs and implementation of an evidence-based guideline for shoulder pain in general practice.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess whether lumbar spine surgery patients with dura rupture differ in symptom prevalence and severity from other lumbar spine surgery patients in the early postoperative phase. This is in order to develop a symptom-specific mobilization algorithm (DURAMOB) that can be used to assess whether patients with dura rupture safe can be mobilized earlier after lumbar back surgery to prevent bed rest complications
Rupture of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is a common pathology, but is subject to variability of associated lesions, surgical management and rehabilitation.
This study is the First in Man Study of WeFlow-JAAA Stent Graft System manufactured by EndoNom Medtech(Hangzhou) Co., Ltd.
Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) at term is a rupture that occurs at term (> 37 weeks) before the start of labor. The purpose of the study was to compare the safety and efficacy of two agents used in induction of labor in women with term PROM Propess (Controlled release dinoprostone, Vaginal Delivery System) and Prostin E2 (Dinoprostone vaginal Tablet). Women will be randomised to two treatment groups. Although some studies support efficacy of the Propess for cervical ripening at term in induction of labor with intact membranes, it has not been well studied in women with PROM at term.
Acute appendicitis is one of the most frequent reasons of emergency laparotomy in adults. Symptoms of acute appendicitis overlap with other clinical conditions and might present as a challenge, especially in the early phases. Despite the advances and widespread use of imaging modalities, still negative laparotomies are performed with the initial diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Several scoring systems are developed by using various clinical and laboratory parameters in order to improve the diagnostic accuracy and prevent unnecessary laparotomies.
The majority of patients suffering an Achilles tendon rupture develop long term functional deficits in the affected leg. The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate a new rehabilitation protocol using Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) for reducing muscle atrophy and improving tendon properties. If proven beneficial, the proposed protocol can be easily adopted and incorporated as part of routine care for Achilles tendon rupture.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy of standard care versus standard care combined with an early progressive exercise program in improving the function of the tendon and leg muscles after non-surgical treated Achilles tendon rupture
