Filter by:caesarean section rate in Egypt has reached about 60% between primgravidae. Wound complications are of the most common morbidities following cesarean section. The prevalence of wound infection and disruption after cesarean has been reported as 3-15%, averagely speaking 6% and 2-42% in various studies. These complications affect mother's quality of life due to stress, anxiety, delay in mother's ability and health recovery
The overall objective of this study is to improve unaided cough with abdominal and latissimus dorsi functional electrical stimulation in conjunction with respiratory muscle training in individuals with acute spinal cord injuries.
The purpose of this interventional study is to compare SynEx Wound Cleanser with the current routine care (Saline) in traumatic wounds. Participants with gunshot, penetrating or burn wounds who participate will be asked to attend up to four study visits, use the assigned wound cleanser and complete brief surveys about their healing and well-being related to the wound healing.
This study is set up within the framework of the European Union regulation 2017/745 on medical devices. Its objective is to confirm the performance and safety of the Global D implants (ORTRAUTEK® and MINITEK/MICROTEK®) used for trauma surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a chlorhexidine impregnated dressing for peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) to the standard dressing currently used in general medical and surgical inpatient wards. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Study Feasibility - Occurrence of infectious complications related to the PIVC Participants will be randomly allocated to receive either of the below dressings to cover and secure their PIVC: - The standard dressing used at their hospital, or - The intervention dressing which has Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) on it Researchers will compare standard and CHG dressings to see if the presence of CHG improves the occurrence of infectious complications related to the PIVC.
The purpose of this research is to explore the use of high-resolution microvessel ultrasound imaging system to look for scarring and to monitor wound healing and to see if treatment affects the amount of tiny vessels and circulation around the wound.
To determine the efficacy of NAC to prevent clinically significant anti-TB drugs induced liver injury (AT-DILI).
Kidney diseases represent a global public health problem due to the aging of the population, the increasing prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, obesity and immune disorders. TNF-superfamily ligands are heterotrimeric transmembrane proteins with a molecular structure characterized by the presence of a TNF homology domain that binds to cysteine-rich regions of specific TNF-superfamily receptors. The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily consists of ligands and receptors that modulate adaptive immunity regulation, hematopoiesis, morphogenesis, as well as different disease states, including cancer and diabetes. DcR3 is found increased in a variety of cancer cells and various inflammatory tissues and is considered a potential biomarker to predict inflammatory disease progression and cancer metastasis. While increasing DcR3 expression may be possible to treat inflammatory diseases and enhance tissue repair, decreasing DcR3 expression may increase tumor apoptosis and suppress tumor growth in vivo. The study will be carried out with the prospective examination of patients without anuria and who developed Acute Kidney Injury or on the basis of Acute Kidney Disease on Chronic Kidney Disease. Sixty patients and 30 age- and gender matched control healthy individuals that accept enrollment in the study will be followed up by the Nephrology Department in Kırıkkale University Faculty of Medicine for 2 years. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between blood and urine DcR 3 levels on the effects of renal and patient prognosis in patients with Acute Kidney Injury as a predictor or an auxiliary test in prediction.
This is a multicentre, parallel-group, randomised, sham-controlled, observer blinded trial, assessing the efficacy of remote ischemic preconditioning on preventing myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with an acute spinal cord injury (within 30 days of injury). Blood pressure instability, specifically orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving lying flat on your back to an upright position), appears early after the injury and often significantly interferes with participation in the critical rehabilitation time period. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can optimal spinal stimulation increase blood pressure and resolve orthostatic symptoms (such as dizziness and nausea) when individuals undergo an orthostatic provocation (a sit-up test)? Optimal stimulation and sham stimulation (which is similar to a placebo treatment) will be compared. 2. What are the various spinal sites and stimulation parameters that can be used to increase and stabilize blood pressure to the normal range of 110-120 mmHg? Participants will undergo orthostatic tests (lying on a bed that starts out flat and then moved into an upright seated position by raising the head of bed by 90° and dropping the base of the bed by 90° from the knee) with optimal and sham stimulation, and their blood pressure measurements will be evaluated and compared.
