Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of a Class IIB medical device based on linear hyaluronic acid used in the treatment of post-surgical wounds. The outcomes of the study are the improvement of wound healing assessed through the Clinical Healing score (score from 0 to 5), which includes the evaluation of: redness, edema, suppuration, healthy granulation tissue and signs of re-epithelialization; the percentage of patients with completely healed wounds at day 30 post-treatment; the pain perceived by the patient when changing the dressing; the frequency of adverse events.
This prospective, double-blind, parallel-group controlled trial aims to investigate the consequence of early trauma on dopamine release evoked by positive valence odors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety of the drug Angiotensin (1-7) and learn whether it works well as a treatment in people who have suffered a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The main questions this trial aims to answer are: - Is Angiotensin (1-7) safe? - Does Angiotensin (1-7) improve mental functioning and reduce physical signs of brain damage in people who have suffered a moderate to severe TBI? Participants will: - Complete 21 days of study treatment consisting of a once-daily injection. - Provide blood samples. - Undergo two magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain. - Complete specific tasks and questionnaires that allow researchers to evaluate the participant's brain and psychological functioning. Researchers will compare three groups: two groups that receive different doses of Angiotensin (1-7) and one group that receives a look-alike treatment with no active drug. This will allow researchers to see if the drug has any negative effects and whether it improves mental functioning and physical signs of brain damage after a TBI.
The goal of this open-label, post-market clinical follow-up study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of HealiAid Collagen Wound Dressing in patients classified into different types of wounds: venous ulcers, bedsores, diabetic foot wounds and burn wounds. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. The wound healing which was defined as the percentage of area change. 2. The duration of wound healing. 3. The granulation tissue growth of the wound. 4. The wound exudate. 5. Safety Indicators of which incidences after treatment. HealiAid will be applied to eligible subjects who will later be followed up for 12 weeks.
For the evaluation of the lower urinary tract after laparoscopic hysterectomy, routine standard saline cystoscopy and carbon dioxide cystoscopy will be compared.
This study aims to determine the relationship between upper extremity pathologies and demographic data, duration of manual wheelchair use, duration of injury, physical examination and musculoskeletal ultrasound measurements in patients with spinal cord injuries.
This prospective randomised trial will investigate the effect of four different suturing techniques (Monocryl, Vicryl Rapide with Indermil skin glue, Dermabond Prineo, and Stryker Zip) on the amount of aberrant wound recovery within 14 days after total hip arthroplasty at the RHOC in Zoetermeer, The Netherlands. This will be done by assessing photographs of the plaster and photographs of the operation wound with a self-developed classification model. The photographs of the plaster will be taken by the test subject at home at 3 days and 11 days postoperatively. The photographs of the operation wound will be taken by a member of the research team, and the doctor's assistant, respectively, during a visit to the outpatient clinic at 7 days and 14 days postoperatively. Hypothesis: Monocryl sutures give the highest amount of aberrant wound recovery within fourteen days after primary THA.
The heart and brain are regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Control of these organs can be disrupted in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). This may affect their ability to regulate blood pressure during daily activities and process the high-level information. Previous studies show that high-intensity exercise induces better outcomes on heart and information processing ability in non-injured people compared to moderate-intensity exercise. However, it is unknown the effects of high-intensity exercise on heart and brain function in people with SCI. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effects of a single bout of high-intensity interval training on heart and brain function in this people with SCI compared to age- and sex-matched non-injured controls.
People with spinal cord injuries may experience muscle tightness or uncontrollable spasms. This study is being conducted to investigate whether transcutaneous spinal stimulation can improve these symptoms. Transcutaneous spinal stimulation is a non-surgical intervention by applying electrical currents using skin electrodes over the lower back and belly. The investigators want to see how well the intervention of transcutaneous spinal stimulation performs by testing different levels of stimulation pulse rates. Also, transcutaneous spinal stimulation is compared to muscle relaxants such as baclofen and tizanidine, commonly given to people with spinal cord injuries, to reduce muscle stiffness and spasms. By doing this, the investigators hope to discover if transcutaneous spinal stimulation similarly reduces muscle spasms and stiffness or if combining both methods works best. This could help improve treatment options for people with spinal cord injuries in the future.
The aim of this study is to prospectively analyse the rate of MINS in the standardised radical prostatectomy patient clientele at the Martini-Clinic and to identify risk factors. Pre- and postoperative troponin levels are determined (1st and 2nd postoperative day). The patient's height, weight, age and cardiovascular risk factors (including determination of the Revised Cardiac Risk Index) are recorded in the medical history as well as previous medical and interventional cardiological therapy. Furthermore, the prostate carcinoma-associated tumour and surgical parameters are determined. Clinically significant cardiovascular events during the inpatient stay are also described. Finally, a description of the rate of events, a check for correlation with the Revised Cardiac Risk Index and an identification of risk factors are carried out.
