Active clinical trials for "Dissociative Disorders"

THe aim of this study is to determine the frequency of dissociative tendencies in the obese population treated at the CELIOBE (Liberal Center for Obesity Support) at Hôpital Privé La Louvière among patients consulting for the first time and looking for a medical or surgical course. The DES scale of Carlson and Putman will be used.

When a patient is admitted to the ICU this often happens so suddenly that this can create a significant amount of stress and anxiety for family members for several reasons. Firstly, the family does not have a pre existing relationship with the ICU team. Secondly, the urgency of the situation and the technic it requires is often such that minimal information can be given to family members. And finally, as a result of the unpredictability of each patient's condition, it can be difficult to predict outcome for family members. Together, these factors compound the stress and anxiety of family members. This anxiety is natural and it is important for health caregivers to be able to offer the best support possible. A high quality communication provided by structured information given by physicians and nurses as well could improve support to the families and lead to greater satisfaction. Giving information to families during meetings is crucial at 3 moments: at the first day when the patient is admitted, at day 3, weekly and each time important news is given (surgery, deterioration in condition, end-of-life). The purpose of this project is to evaluate if the involvement of nurses during those meetings could improve quality in communication which is assessed by mixed methods. Families and healthcare workers satisfaction will be assessed by qualitative methodology. Family peritraumatic stress, symptoms of anxiety and depression and PTSD will be assessed using validated scales. Training of healthcare workers will be done by role play. Information to the families is delivered using a framework for physicians and nurses. All the meetings of the study will be audited by a psychologist.

The purpose of this study is to assess the association of retinal detachment (separation of the retina [the innermost layer of the eyeball] from its connection at the back of the eye) with exposure to oral ciprofloxacin or oral fluoroquinolones.

To describe the technique and outcomes of using either inverted or free internal limiting membrane flap in the management of retinal detachment due to paracentral retinal breaks.

Our study observes and analyses the influence of the duration of tamponade with silicone oil on the foveal and parafoveal thickness.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between morphologic changes in the outer retina and visual function after successful repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with macula off.

Clinical features, optical coherence tomography findings and surgical outcome in eyes with macular retinoschisis and detachment with normal tension glaucoma but without optic disc pit or high myopia were evaluated.

The investigators compared the incidence of trimming-induced retinal breaks, retinal redetachment rate, and final LogMAR BCVA; between scleral self-indentation and non-indentation during chandelier-assisted peripheral vitrectomy under air for eyes with primary retinal detachment. Self-indentation enables complete trimming of the vitreous base without causing iatrogenic retinal breaks, with a higher retinal reattachment rate, and with less need for chandelier shift than with non-indentation approach.

Correlation between optical coherence tomography and multifocal electroretinogram findings with visual acuity after vitrectomy surgery for Retinal detachment.

The aim of this study was to identify the predictive factors of graft detachment after Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK) surgery. This retrospective study was conducted on patients aged 18 years, with Fuchs' dystrophy (FECD) or pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK), who were scheduled for DMEK or triple-DMEK (combined phacoemulsification and DMEK surgery). Patients with a history of surgery other than cataract surgery were excluded. The study was conducted between 2014 and 2022 and follow-up was for 3 months. The characteristics of patients with and without graft detachment following surgery were compared using logistic regression.
