Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis"

This study will look at melatonin vs. first generation antihistamine vs. placebo in improving nighttime itching in children with atopic dermatitis.

A prospective single blind controlled randomized trial to evaluate the superiority of photobiomodulation (PBM) using LED-therapy in reducing the prevalence of radiodermatitis in breast cancer compared to usual local care.

Occupational hand dermatitis (OHD) often occurs in intensive care unit (ICU) nurses, especially in individuals who are vulnerable due to irritant exposure e.g. hand rub alcohol and repeated hand washing activities. The use of moisturizer is one of the recommendations for skin care in OHD. Niacinamide which has anti-inflammatory effects and can improve the skin barrier function. Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is rich in lipids and lauric acid, and has an occlusive effect. Until now there are no guidelines and reference types of moisturizers for secondary prevention in DTAK.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate if Uricap Female, an uridome for women, can be used instead of traditional incontinence aids to treat urinary incontinence (UI) among women 75 years and older.

Purpose: To study the etiology and the epigenetic pathways leading to and regulating chronic itch. Similarly, to examine the mechanisms underlying skin changes, including epigenetic alterations while also testing the efficacy of opioid antagonists in atopic dermatitis. In this study, the investigators aim to examine chronic sensory disorder mechanisms related to chronic itch.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a standardized skin care regimen using a milk lotion once daily and a bathing addendum as needed during the first 52 weeks of life on the development of atopic Dermatitis (AD) compared to no structured skin care regimen in infants with atopic predisposition. Secondary objectives are to investigate the influence of a structured skin care regimen on the development of AD in the second year of life and the skin barrier function up to the infants' age of 2 years.

The purpose of this study is to obtain information concerning the safety and effective use of a protective barrier film in patients experiencing severe incontinence associated dermatitis.

We propose an open, prospective, multi-center Phase III study to evaluate the diagnostic performance and safety of seven new T.R.U.E. Test allergens: Gold sodium thiosulfate, Hydrocortisone-17-butyrate, Bacitracin, Parthenolide, Methyldibromoglutaronitrile, Disperse blue 106, and Bronopol.Allergen performance and safety will be evaluated in adult patients with suspected contact dermatitis, and in adult patients with a known or suspected sensitization to at least one of the seven allergens.

Breast neoplasm is the second most common type in the world. Radiation therapy is a key component in the treatment of breast cancer. Acute skin reaction is one of the most common side effects of radiation therapy. Several studies were performed for prophylaxis of this adverse event, however, until this moment there is no consensus for clinical practice . Second meta-analysis , the ideal candidate for the radiodermatitis prevention would be an agent capable of repairing damage to DNA or agents that promote cell proliferation . The low power laser promotes tissue repair ( reduces inflammatory phase and induces collagen synthesis ) . Its use in the treatment of adverse events of cancer treatment is well established in two situations : in the prophylaxis and treatment of mucositis and in the treatment of lymphedema . The purpose of this study is to use the low power laser in patients with breast cancer undergoing radiotherapy treatment to evaluate the effects of Laser InGaAIP 660Nm in preventing radiodermatitis.

This study will determine the safety and efficacy of diluted bleach bath solution as final rinse on the reduction of Staphylococcus aureus colonization among children and adult Filipinos with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis..
