NCT ID: NCT04550754 Completed - Withdrawal Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Management of Tramadol Use Disorders

Start date: September 17, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In France, In recent years, there has been a steady increase in reports of abuse and dependence on tramadol. Over 50% of tramadol withdrawal syndromes involve taking tramadol in therapeutic doses, sometimes for short periods of less than a week. Physical dependence can develop when a therapeutic maintenance dose is prescribed for the treatment of mild to moderate pain. Due to its mixed mechanism of action, tramadol withdrawal syndromes are not only characterized by classic signs of opioid withdrawal (muscle pain, mydriasis, sweating, nausea and vomiting, tearing, rhinorrhea, yawning, fever, insomnia, etc.). The properties of this substance on serotonin explain the effects which are added to the morphine-mimetic withdrawal of tramadol. Analysis of spontaneous reports shows "psychological and psychic" signs of withdrawal. Currently, there is no validated protocol for the management of tramadol withdrawal. The main objective is to assess the different options for managing tramadol withdrawal: opioid maintenance therapy and symptomatic treatments, in relation to the addictive and psychiatric co-morbidities in patients. The study also provides insight into the different types of withdrawal syndromes experienced by patients in order to raise awareness among doctors when prescribing tramadol.

NCT ID: NCT04105712 Completed - Food Addiction Clinical Trials

The Biobehavioral Impact of Diet Quality on Affect and Craving

Start date: June 18, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The current study experimentally investigates whether reducing highly processed (HP) foods (defined in this study as foods high in added sugars) leads to, psychological and / or behavioral indicators of withdrawal. The following hypotheses are tested: 1. To test the hypothesis that reducing highly processed food intake will result in higher daily reports of physical (e.g. headaches), cognitive (e.g. difficulty concentrating), and affective (e.g., irritability) withdrawal symptoms). 2. To test the hypothesis that reducing highly processed food intake will result in increased negative affect (e.g., irritability, depression) as indicated by and psychological (self - reported distress ratings; daily emotion / mood reports) measures. 3. To test the hypothesis that reducing highly processed food intake will result in increased food craving as indicated by psychological (self - report craving ratings; daily craving report) measures. All activities are completed remotely. Participants complete 4 phone appointments with a trained member of the research team. Daily questionnaires and ecological momentary assessments are completed at home between phone appointments. The initial call signs electronic consent and gets baseline measurements (questionnaires). After the initial call, participants start an active assessment period (pre / post dietary change assessments). Pre-dietary change includes at home questionnaires and ecological momentary assessments while eating a typical diet. It also includes the second phone appointment. Post-dietary change includes at home questionnaires and ecological momentary assessments while consuming 3 days of food portions lower in highly processed foods. Participants will complete a food journal on the remaining 2 days of post - dietary change assessment to report what food they ate. Post - dietary change also includes the third phone appointment. The second and third phone appointments each include computer tasks and questionnaires. The final phone appointment is a debriefing interview. Participants planning to continue eating a healthier diet may also be invited to complete a follow-up period, which involves answering a short questionnaire at home every other day for two weeks. 7 individuals had in-person data collected prior to the pandemic requiring a shift to virtual data collection.

NCT ID: NCT03973801 Completed - Clinical trials for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome

Feasibility of Auricular Acupressure as an Adjunct Treatment for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)

Start date: August 19, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the feasibility of implementing auricular acupressure as an additional non-pharmacologic therapy for neonates at risk for developing neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) at Monroe Carrell Jr Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC).

NCT ID: NCT03462797 Completed - Addiction Clinical Trials

Opioid Physiology Project

OPP
Start date: August 14, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The current project seeks to explore the use of emergent biosensor technology to detect opioid use. The investigators goal is to recruit 60 opioid naïve patients presenting at the College of Dentistry at UTHSC. Candidate participants must be scheduled for an upcoming dental procedure that will involve subsequent pain management using oral opioid medication. Participants will be consented prior to any study procedures. All participant information from this study will be kept strictly confidential (e.g., no individual data will be shared with the College of Dentistry).

NCT ID: NCT03376308 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Effect of Venous Diameter Measurement by Ultrasonography on Pain and Withdrawal Response

VDIAMETER
Start date: June 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

During general anesthesia, intravenous (IV) medications can disrupt the patient's comfort by causing a pain sensation or a withdrawal response in the heart. Propofol and rocuronium are among the most common causes of this condition. In recent years, the use of ultrasonography (USG) in anesthesia has become widespread with the rapid advancement of technology. The use of the patient's head is a non invasive method. This study is aimed to evaluate whether the size of the venous diameter assessed by ultrasonography in our study is an effect on pain and withdrawal response after drug injections.

NCT ID: NCT01818895 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Terminal Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation or Extubation in Anticipation of Death in the Intensive Care Unit

ARREVE
Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of the study is to assess the dying process in critically ill patients with decision to withdraw invasive mechanical ventilation in anticipation of death and to compare effects of extubation and those of terminal weaning of mechanical ventilation on relatives and care givers. The investigators primary hypothesis is that extubation is associated with less symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorders in relatives, as compared to terminal weaning.

NCT ID: NCT01431326 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Pharmacokinetics of Understudied Drugs Administered to Children Per Standard of Care

PTN_POPS
Start date: November 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Understudied drugs will be administered to children per standard of care as prescribed by their treating caregiver and only biological sample collection during the time of drug administration will be involved. A total of approximately 7000 children aged <21 years who are receiving these drugs for standard of care will be enrolled and will be followed for up a maximum of 90 days. The goal of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of understudied drugs for which specific dosing recommendations and safety data are lacking. The prescribing of drugs to children will not be part of this protocol. Taking advantage of procedures done as part of routine medical care (i.e. blood draws) this study will serve as a tool to better understand drug exposure in children receiving these drugs per standard of care. The data collected through this initiative will also provide valuable pharmacokinetic and dosing information of drugs in different pediatric age groups as well as special pediatric populations (i.e. obese).
