Verbal Stimulation of Orientation on Emergence Agitation
Emergence DeliriumThe purpose of this study is to investigate whether information of the orientation such as time, place, and patient's own name can reduce emergence delirium after general anesthesia.
Treatment of Patients Suffering From Nervous Restlessness With PASCOFLAIR®
Nervous RestlessnessThe study was carried out as a prospective, non-interventional study with the intention of subsequent process cost analyses (PCA) and also considers quality of life, drug misuse, dependence, adverse events and therapy satisfaction.
Sleep Deficiency and Stroke Outcome
Sleep Apnea SyndromesSleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders3 moreDeficient sleep duration and sleep disturbances - such as insomnia, sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and restless legs syndrome (RLS)- are associated with hypertension and cardio-cerebrovascular morbidity and mortality. Several studies suggest that sleep disorders are frequent after stroke and detrimental for stroke outcome. However, more prospective studies in a large unselected sample of stroke survivors are needed to better investigate the short- and long-term consequences of sleep disturbances on mortality and occurrence of new cardio-cerebrovascular events. Also their pathophysiological mechanisms and their influence on stroke recovery should be better understood. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the impact of sleep deficiency and sleep fragmentation on the frequency of new cerebro- and cardiovascular events and death after stroke or transient ischemic attacks, and clinical outcome within one and two years after stroke. The working hypotheses are that stroke survivors with sleep deficiency and sleep fragmentation due to insomnia, sleep-disordered breathing or restless leg syndrome will present: (1) higher mortality from all causes and higher frequency of new cardio-/ cerebrovascular events; and (2) a less favorable clinical outcome. Outcomes will be compared between patients with and without sleep deficiency and fragmentation. Since current clinical practice in cerebrovascular patients does not sufficiently consider sleep disorders in patient's management, this study can help to bring attention to a still overlooked medical problem and change the current standard of management of stroke survivors.
Effects of Preoperative Using of Eye Patches on Prevention of Emergence Agitation After Cataract...
AgitationChild1 moreThis study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate if preoperative using of eye patch will decrease emergence agitation, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists.
Observational Study of Sifrol® in Patients With Primary Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)
Restless Legs SyndromeThe objectives of this Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) are: Evaluation of the treatment effect of pramipexole on Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) severity as measured by International Restless Legs Syndrome Scale (IRLS) and Clinical Global Impression Improvement scale (CGI- I) Evaluation of the time to reaching maintenance dose of pramipexole Evaluation of work productivity impairment associated with RLS based on the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI) questionnaire
Safety Follow-up Study for Subjects With Agitation Associated With Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type...
Agitation Associated With Alzheimer's DiseaseAlzheimer's Type2 moreTo follow-up on the safety of subjects who were previously treated in a double-blind trial of brexpiprazole.
Agitated Saline Versus CXR Confirmation of Central Venous Lines
Central Venous CatheterizationExposure to X-RaysCentral venous lines insertion are common procedures these days. CVL placed under USG guidance have high success rates and low complications even in developing country settings. However, the investigators still have to rely on chest x-ray (CXR) to confirm the correct placement of central venous lines as a gold standard method. This might be time consuming and may cause delay in initiation of treatment. In some cases, as in operating room, the treatment is started even before confirmation by CXR. Ultrasound has ability to localize the tip of the catheter at the superior venacava- right atrium junction using agitated saline and the appearance of contrast within 2 seconds in right atrium. However, this technique is rarely used. The investigators, therefore, designed the trial to study whether confirmation of tip of CVL by ultrasound is non-inferior to the CXR confirmation.
Dexmedetomidine Versus Nalbuphine in Prevention of Emergence Agitation Following Adenotonsillectomy...
Emergence DeliriumThe aim of the present study is to compare the effect of IV infusion 0.5 µg/kg dexmedetomidine and IV 0.1 mg/kg nalbuphine in preschool children for prevention of emergence agitation after adenotonsillectomy under sevoflurane anesthesia.
Effectiveness of NEURAPAS Balance in Children With Nervous Restlessness
NervousnessRestlessness2 morePurpose: To document data on effectiveness of NEURAPAS® balance (NPB) in the treatment of nervous restlessness in children aged 6 to 12. Each patient is treated with NPB. No placebo group is established. Course and severity of symptoms is documented by a questionnaire on 13 common symptoms of nervous restlessness and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). A standardized questionnaire (Parent Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL/4-18)) is completed. Choice and doses of therapy are at the respective physician's discretion. The planned treatment and observation period is 2 - 4 weeks.
Altered Brain GABA and Glutamate in Restless Legs Syndrome
Restless Legs SyndromeThe purpose of the study is to understand the brain chemistry of people with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). The primary hypothesis is that patients with RLS will have reduced GABA levels in their Thalamus and elevated Glutamate levels in their Anterior Cingulate Cortex. The study will use MRS imaging to examine the regional levels of these neurochemicals, GABA and Glutamate, in the brain.
