Active clinical trials for "Acute Disease"

This study, which is aimed at comparing the effectiveness of 3 symptomatic therapies (dextromethorphan, ipratropium and honey) associated with usual care and the usual care in adults with acute bronchitis, is a multicentre, pragmatic, parallel group, open randomised trial. Patients aged 18 or over with uncomplicated acute bronchitis, with cough <3 weeks as the main symptom, scoring ≥ 4 in either daytime or nocturnal cough on a 7-point Likert scale, will be randomised to one of the 4 groups. Sample: 668 patients. The primary outcome will be the number of days with moderate-severe cough.

Acute appendicitis (AA) is a frequent cause of acute abdominal pain in emergency rooms around the world [1]. The lifetime risk of developing AA is estimated to be about 8% [1-3]. The severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has raised difficult situations for healthcare systems and organizations around the world, with direct and indirect implications for patient care delivery. COVID-19 causes a wide range of clinical symptoms, including fever, dry cough, myalgia, and exhaustion, with pulmonary involvement in many cases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on acute appendicitis and surgical care is unknown due to a lack of evidence. To see how appendicitis care has changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, this study compares clinical presentation, investigative modalities, treatment procedures, and outcomes before and after the pandemic.

The study will conduct with 4 comparative groups orally treated with YHD001 dose level 1(t.i.d.), YHD001 dose level 2(t.i.d.), pelargonium sidoides extract 9mL(t.i.d.) or Placebo for 7 days. The treatments will be assigned randomly to patients (n=116) with acute or chronic bronchitis.

In infants and toddlers wheezy bronchitis is a common viral disease. To relieve wheezing symptoms bronchodilators or corticosteroids are commonly used but the efficacy is not always satisfactory. The purpose of this trial is to investigate the effectiveness of iv-magnesium in the treatment of moderate or severe bronchial obstruction associated with viral infection in small children. The study population will include the children attending the Pediatric Emergency Department of Oulu University Hospital because of respiratory infection and bronchial obstruction that is not relieved with conventional treatment. After written consent from the parents, the children will be randomized to get either intravenous magnesium sulfate or isotonic NaCl. The primary outcome is RDAI (Respiratory Distress Assessment Instrument) scoring six hours from the infusion. Secondary endpoints are RDAI scoring and oxygen saturation at other time points and length of hospital stay. The sample size is 64 children at the age of 6 months to 4 years. If iv-magnesium is effective in relieving viral infection associated bronchial obstruction, that would be an important addition to the treatment of this common disease.

Study Hypothesis. combination chemotherapy with Clofarabine VP16 and Cyclophosphamide is able to induce remission in resistant/refractory acute leukemias in pediatric. Forty children with relapsed or refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) entered the study and received the association of clofarabine (40 mg/m2/day) in combination with etoposide (100 mg/m2/day) and Cyclophosphamide (440 mg/m2/day) in 1 or 2 induction cycles End point were complete remission (CR)or CR without platelet recovery (CRp) and toxicity

This study will investigate the effect of paliperidone ER (in combination with or without benzodiazepines) in patients presenting with symptoms of agitation and/or aggression in the context of psychosis, and will generate data regarding both efficacy and safety in the acute setting.
