Filter by:Traumatic dental injuries are one of the commonly encountered dental emergencies. Missing anterior tooth in children due to any injury can be a source of considerable physical and psychological discomfort for the child. These consequences also have significant impact on parents, who are generally concerned with esthetic and economic aspects of this problem. It varies from small crack in the enamel to complete loss of the tooth. Injury to children teeth can be both painful and traumatic to the children
This is a Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic study evaluating the safety of co-administering Azithromycin alongside the new IDA (Ivermectin, Diethylcarbamazine, Albendazole) combination treatment for LF. Individuals will be randomised to receive Azithromycin alone, IDA or combination therapy. Clinical and biochemical monitoring for safety will be undertaken. Drug levels will be measured in each of the three arms to assess whether combination therapy significantly alters drug levels.
The purpose of the proposed study is twofold: 1) The investigators will evaluate ultrasound imaging to screen trauma patients to identify patients at increased risk of postoperative complications associated with sarcopenia. 2) The investigators will evaluate a commercially-available oral nutritional supplement that has previously been evaluated in critically-ill intensive care patients and shown benefit for decreasing complications including decreased wound healing complications, decreased pressure ulcers, decreased skeletal muscle loss due to immobilization, and decreased one-year mortality.
The proposed study aims to gather the multiple types of preliminary data needed to design a large and rigorous pragmatic, cluster randomized trial on the impact of a trauma-informed mindfulness-based yoga program on enhancing self-regulation (in the short-term) and reducing recidivism (in the long-term) among juvenile justice-involved youth. Such a study will ultimately provide more definitive outcomes related to the effectiveness of these programs this population. If effective, the assimilation of such programs into the treatment plans of youth in juvenile justice facilities and in other residential settings could have a significant impact on a range of health, educational, vocational, and interpersonal outcomes relevant to this population.
This study evaluates the addition of a lidocaine patch to ibuprofen in the treatment of acute musculoskeletal pains. Half of the participants will get only ibuprofen for their pain, while other half will receive lidocaine patch plus the ibuprofen. After addition of the pain medications, the participants will be followed for their pain scores and return visits.
This study seeks to determine if postoperative phone calls by a physician affect outcomes in hand surgery.
The current goal of this project is to subjectively and objectively assess the efficacy of arts and movement interventions--including dance/movement therapy, art therapy and mindful yoga for youth and adults exposed to trauma, including families resettled as refugees and families in high-risk, low-resource environments. The overarching aim is to measure the changes over time in self-reported symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, anxiety disorder(s), depression, and somatic symptoms, as well as changes in biological substrates representing pathophysiological processes involved in responses to stress, trauma, and the aforementioned disorders. These biological substrates include inflammatory proteins and the stress hormone cortisol. We hypothesize that given the emotional and physical components of arts and movement therapies, which are implemented in group settings and confer life-long coping skills to participants, participation in arts and movement therapies will result in reduction of self-reported severity of psyciatric symptoms and improved physiology. COVID-19: In March, the COVID-19 pandemic caused in person research to be halted in order to be in adherence to the stay at home order for the State of Michigan. The IRB overseeing the present project approved an amendment to allow data to be collected online via phone or email, based on participant preference, with a new consent form for this new method of data collection. Following this approval, we migrated our programming to virtual formats and began to serve both refugee commuities as well as school-aged youth with the intervention program and obtained consent followed by data from participants as part of this study. We have pivoted towards also looking at the benefits of creative arts and movement based interventions in reducing COVID-related distress, as well as building resilience. By collecting psychological and biomarker data the investigators seek concrete scientific evidence supporting these non-pharmacological, cost effective, and accessible programs as reliable treatment options.
RADAR-2 will be a randomised, open-label, allocation concealed, pilot trial of conservative fluid administration and deresuscitation compared with usual care in patients who are critically ill.
The objective of this trial is to investigate whether treatment with oxygen in the early phases after a trauma plays a role in recovery.
Every year more people die from traumatic injuries than from infections such as malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS. About 3000 people are killed annually on Kenyan roads. Hospital trauma registers have played a key role in the advancement of patient-based research and trauma care. Trauma registers offer a unique opportunity to document patient characteristics and audit outcomes, thereby creating a platform for clinical research. One of these systems is the ICD-based Injury Severity Score (ICISS) derived from and validated on hospital data to predict hospital death. The establishment of the register enables us to compare the trauma care quality with other existing or upcoming trauma registers, in different settings.
