Filter by:This study aims to determine the effect of health education and progressive muscle relaxation exercise (PMRE) on vasomotor symptoms and sleep problems in women with perimenopausal period; a randomized, pretest-posttest is a randomized controlled, factorial group experimental study. The research was conducted in a family health center. The required institutional permission and ethics committee approval was received. The sample consisted of 90 women totally, 30 of whom in the PMRE + health education group, 30 of whom in the PMRE group and 30 of whom in the control group. The data was collected using personal information form, Visual Analog Scale for Vasomotor Symptoms (VAS), Women's Health Initiative Insomnia Rating Scale-WHIIRS, vasomotor symptom diary, progressive muscle relaxation exercise follow-up schedule, and health education practice follow-up schedule. The data were stored in the SPSS 24 program. In the analysis of the data, ANOVA test, Repeated Measures test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Friedman test and χ2 test statistics were used.
This is a two-part study designed to evaluate the effect of Estetrol (E4) 15 or 20 mg, or placebo on the severity and frequency of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) (Efficacy Study Part) and the safety of E4 20 mg (Endometrial and General Safety Study Part)
This is a two-part study designed to evaluate the effect of Estetrol (E4) 15 or 20 mg, or placebo on the severity and frequency of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) (Efficacy Study Part) and the safety of E4 20 mg (Safety Study Part).
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effects of a technique called High-resolution, relational, resonance-based, electroencephalic mirroring (HIRREM®), for women in any stage of menopause, who are experiencing menopause-related hot flashes.
Vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats, VMS) affect up to 65% of breast cancer survivors and negatively impact their quality of life. VMS in Hispanic women are significantly more severe as compared to non-Hispanic Caucasian women. Few effective treatments for VMS are available, especially in the underserved Hispanic and Spanish-speaking populations which is problematic, as Hispanics will comprise 20% of the U.S. population by 2025. Stellate ganglion nerve block (SGB) with local anesthetic, previously performed for chronic pain indications, has shown promise as a potential treatment for menopausal women with VMS in previous clinical trials, but has not been investigated in Hispanic or Spanish-Speaking women with breast cancer in a controlled study.
Hot flashes and night sweats (vasomotor symptoms, VMS) affect 80% of women during the menopausal transition (MT). VMS are associated with decreased quality of life, increased depressive and anxiety symptoms, memory complaints, sleep disturbance, and reduced work productivity. Hormone therapy (HT) is highly effective in reducing VMS, but the use of HT declined 75% to 80% in the U.S. after the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) raised safety concerns about HT. In 2013, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI; 7.5 mg), as the first non-hormonal treatment for VMS. SSRIs are an important treatment option for many women, but their use in treating VMS is limited by lower effectiveness when compared to HT, side effects, and relapse of symptoms following treatment discontinuation. Identifying safe and effective non-hormonal treatments for VMS remains a priority in women's health research. Stellate ganglion blockade (SGB), used for decades in pain management, is a potential new approach to VMS treatment. Located in the cervical spine region, the stellate ganglia are part of the sympathetic nervous system. Although SGB is commonly performed to treat neuropathic pain, hyperhidrosis or vascular insufficiency, anatomic studies reveal connections between this ganglion and thermoregulatory regions of the brain, specifically the insular cortex. In this clinical trial, we aim to assess whether stellate ganglion block (SGB) with bupivacaine, a local anesthetic, is an effective and safe non-hormonal intervention for women seeking relief from vasomotor symptoms (VMS), and identify the physiologic mechanisms underlying SGB effects. Outcomes will include frequency and intensity of hot flashes, objectively-measured VMS, mood, quality of life, sleep, and memory performance in 160 postmenopausal women with 50 or more moderate to very severe hot flashes per week as measured by self-report for six months. They will be reassessed at 3 and 6 months following the SGB or a sham intervention for objective hot flashes and quality of life measures. Mechanistic outcomes (neuroimaging) will be obtained at baseline and 3 months following the intervention. Ambulatory monitoring of sympathetic nervous system function (SKNA) will be performed at baseline before the procedure, during the procedure and 1 hour following the procedure. This will be repeated at 2 and four weeks following the SGB or sham procedure for 1 hour recordings.
A Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Doses of MT-8554 in Female Subjects Experiencing Vasomotor Symptoms
The primary objective of this study was to determine the clinical safety of RAD1901 and to evaluate whether RAD1901 reduced the frequency and severity of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS; "hot flashes") in postmenopausal women.
The purpose of this study is to preliminarily determine whether the frequency and/or severity of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) at baseline, and then after symptom reduction with gabapentin, relates to various cardiovascular control measures.
The purpose of this Phase III trial is to evaluate the efficacy of oral administration of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) combined with acolbifene (a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM)) on vasomotor symptoms (hot flushes) in postmenopausal women.
