Filter by:Although, a huge number of acute wounds is treated successfully every year, Health Care Professionals (HCPs) are facing more and more problems when treating skin damages or surgical incisions: The number of patients with fragile and/or sensitive skin is highly increasing. Such patients are having a skin integrity issue, meaning the skin is vulnerable to injury, often damaged, or unable to heal. The investigational medical devices (IMDs) of the planned clinical evaluation, Leukomed® T skin sensitive and Leukomed® T plus skin sensitive have been developed for treatment of acute wounds on patients with fragile or sensitive skin to provide a reliable but skin-friendly fixation and wound care option. The primary purpose of this clinical study is the evaluation of clinical performance to stay in place up to seven days and the safety of both dressings. Further, data on wearing comfort, product handling, pain during removal and quality of life are considered as secondary outcomes. The products will be used as part of routine wound care within the scope of their intended purpose without any additional invasive or burdensome examination.
The primary goal of this study is to explore whether applying the Mepilex foam on the nasal bridge directly between the skin and the N95 mask will prevent nasal bridge pressure injury among nursing staff, secondary to long-term ( >8+ hours) wear time. The secondary goal is to evaluate if using the Mepilex maintains the seal of the mask.
This study will compare the effects of closed incision negative pressure dressing vs. standard of care silver dressing on lower limb swelling after bilateral primary total knee arthroplasty.
This is a Phase 1, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending- dose trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous PNT001 in hospitalized patients with traumatic brain injury.
Our overarching goal is to improve the outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients with or at risk for development of acute kidney injury (AKI). The objective of this study is to determine the role of a protocol to manage urine alkalization using a simple medication that has been used for a very long time, is safe, and without significant side-effects. We aim to determine the feasibility and safety of a urine alkalinization protocol for the prevention of AKI in patients testing positive for COVID-19.
The study aims to assess the potential benefit and evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of VIB7734 in hospitalized patients with documented infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) with pulmonary involvement. Subjects will be administered a single dose of VIB7734 injected under the skin, assessed for efficacy for 28 days and followed for an additional 42 days.
The current study will evaluate the feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with an existing intensive physiotherapy program for children with ABI within the in/day-patient brain injury program at Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, Toronto, Canada. This feasibility randomized control trial will allocate 30 participants with ABI (age 5 to 18 years) to one of two treatment groups. One group will receive active tDCS prior to four of their existing physiotherapy sessions each week for a total of 16 sessions while the other group will receive sham/placebo tDCS prior to their physiotherapy sessions. Recovery of gross motor function will be compared between groups after the four weeks of tDCS treatment and again after three months to evaluate the short and longer-term impact of tDCS on an existing intensive physiotherapy program. Feasibility will be evaluated by tracking process, resource, and treatment indicators such as eligibility, enrollment, adherence, and tolerance rates.
Randomized, placebo controlled study to determine if nebulized heparin may reduce the severity of lung injury caused by the novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19
This research study is designed to investigate the use of a simple cognitive task for decreasing the number of intrusive memories of traumatic events experienced by refugees and asylum seekers with a diagnosis of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) currently living in the UK. The intervention includes a memory reminder cue, a 10-minute time gap and then around 20 minutes playing the mobile phone game Tetris, using mental rotation instructions. The study will have a multiple baseline case-series design (AB), with a randomised duration of baseline length up to three weeks. Thus, participants will complete a no-intervention phase of up to three weeks, followed by an intervention phase. Please see the intervention section for more details about the intervention sessions. Follow ups are conducted after each week to monitor the frequency of intrusive memories of trauma in a pen-and-paper diary. It is predicted that participants will report fewer intrusive memories after receiving the intervention than in the preceding baseline phase.
The main purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat dosing with zampilimab in kidney transplant recipients with deteriorating kidney function associated with chronic allograft injury (CAI).
