Filter by:Collect data on various wound treatments and their related wound healing process, in real life settings. Analyze the safety and efficacy of wound treatments, including: advanced biological/synthetic grafts and standard of wound care treatments.
Chronic non-healing wounds are becoming an increasingly more common problem. Eligible, consenting patients with chronic leg wounds will either continue to the standard of care or will be randomized to the treatment cohort where antibiotic solution will be injected in the area around the wound. All patients will continue standard wound care as dictated by the wound care clinic. Subjects of both the control and treatment will have approximately 6 study specific visits that may or may not coincide with previously schedule wound care clinic visits. As these specified visits wound size and healing will be documented and patients will complete surveys. The study will conclude for the subject after approximately 6 months. Again, these patients may continue standard wound care but will no longer have study obligations.
Study of the osteoconductive potential of the injectable bone substitute In'Oss™ (MBCP® Putty) in the filling of orthopaedic bone defects to collect Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) data for the CE-marked In'Oss™ (MBCP® Putty) device in the orthopaedic trauma surgery
Inhalation injury is a composite of multiple insults including: supra glottic thermal injury, subglottic airway and alveolar poisoning, and systemic poisoning from absorbed small molecule toxins. These contaminant insults independently affect each of the pulmonary functions as well as having a direct effect on systemic physiology. Further, anatomic characteristics can predispose patients to inhalation injury. For example, an infant will develop airway obstructions much faster than an adult due to reduced airway diameter. Understanding the contributions of each of these pathologies to the patient's disease is critical to managing inhalation injury. Wii fit aerobic training gives similar results with traditional rehabilitation practices, it causes less energy costs. This suggests that it can be a suitable rehabilitation tool for adult and elderly people with low energy levels. A review showed that video games are safe and feasible in the children with lung complications. Children' balance, aerobic and cognitive functions, quality of life improved and depressive mood decreased. WII aerobic games also make children to communicate better with other family members.
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug retention enema for the prevention of acute radiation rectal injury in the real world.
The primary aim of this observational cohort study is to assess sports specialization, sports performance, history of injuries (prevalence, types, areas, duration) and quality of life in young healthy athletes aged 8-16 from Poland. Athlete profiles will be created based on the variables (explained in detailed description) examined. Furthermore, the investigators will perform one-year injury follow-up. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do athletes with a specific profile (lower values in athletic performance tests, low values in quality of life) evaluated at one time point, suffer injury in the future in annual observation? - Do athletes with high sports specialization will sustain injury in one-year follow-up? - Does sports specialization have a relationship with sports performance tests, and quality of life? - Does sport specialisation, training volume, geographical factor relate to injury history? - Does sports specialisation, injury history differ between sports (individual and team sports)? - Does value of the specific muscle (lower limb) isometric strength will be associated with the dynamic balance scores in young healthy athletes?
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of using hydrocolloid tapes in preventing pressure injuries on the nose and columella regions caused by non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) in preterm infants.
The study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Bahawalpur Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. The subjects (n=24) will be divided into two groups. Group A will include 12 postnatal women and for treatment, cryotherapy will be applied for 20 minutes. Group B will include 12 women and receive infrared light, an infrared lamp will be put at a distance of 45 cm from the perineum, and the heat produced with 230 volts for twenty minutes. The participant will be checked after the first five minutes to make sure that she is not being burned. This procedure will be done twice a day for 7 consecutive days.
This is an investigator initiated, multi-center, open-labelled, superiority randomized controlled trial of 372 patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery. Recruited patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive single subcutaneous dose of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist (GLP-1 RAs) 1 to 4 days prior to surgery or receive routine care. Semaglutide (Ozempic; Novo Nordisk, Denmark) is chosen as GLP-1 Receptor Agonists investigational drug for this study. Apart from peri-operative routine care, all recruited subjects will undergo physical, respiratory and cardiac assessments including electrocardiography and blood check including cardiac enzymes. Myocardial injury, cardiovascular outcomes and safety will be assessed and evaluated for efficacy and safety of this prophylactic measurement for the reduction of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery.
Massively bleeding trauma patients have higher odds of mortality, increased hospital length of stay, and increased need for transfusion if they become hypothermic. Hypothermia is independently associated with mortality in traumatically injured patients due to its negative physiologic effects on hemostasis, cardiorespiratory and renal function. Current warming strategies increase the logistical difficulty of transferring patients (which is frequent during the initial hours of trauma care) or must be changed at frequent intervals. Prehospital, military, and intraoperative studies have suggested chemical warming blankets as a pragmatic strategy to manage hypothermia. A recent pilot study (manuscript under review) at our institution demonstrated the feasibility of using the Ready-Heat® (TechTrade LLC, Orlando, FL, USA) chemical heating blanket in the initial phases of hospital care in bleeding trauma patients requiring a mass hemorrhage protocol (MHP). These self-warming blankets provide warmth over 8 hours at up to 40 degrees Celsius, carrying the advantage of portability with no continuous electric power requirement. Furthermore, the Ready-Heat blanket may be more effective than current strategies for rewarming patients at high risk of developing hypothermia. STAYWARM-2 will be the first randomized controlled trial performed in-hospital to evaluate a self-warming blanket to address hypothermia in massively bleeding trauma patients within the initial hours of hospital arrival. This study will help to determine the efficacy and feasibility of using chemical heating blankets for hypothermia in the early hours of hospital care. This has potential to reduce the overall workload of direct care clinicians, freeing them for other patient care duties. Additionally, the intervention may achieve enhanced thermoregulation compared to current strategies, improving patient care and comfort, and avoiding the clinical complications related to hypothermia. Findings from this preliminary study may provide data for a future grant to launch a larger randomized controlled trial in the prehospital/in-hospital trauma setting to optimize the care of patients at risk of developing hypothermia.
