Active clinical trials for "Edema"

To compare bromfenac 0.09%, diclofenac sodium 0.1%, and ketorolac tromethamine 0.5% ophthalmic solutions for the treatment of acute pseudophakic CME after cataract surgery.

Intracameral Gas SF6 (Sulfur Hexafluoride) Injection for Acute Hydrops in Keratoconus

The purpose of the study is to test the hypothesis that oral administration of ruboxistaurin will reduce the occurrence of sustained moderate visual loss (SMVL) in patients with clinically significant macular edema. SMVL is defined as a 15 letter or more decrease from baseline in best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity that is sustained for the patient's last 6 months of study participation. The SMVL data from this study will be combined with the SMVL data from Study B7A-MC-MBDL for the purpose of comparing ruboxistaurin to placebo.

This study is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, controlled, clinical trial that evaluates the efficacy of using PEMF in the postoperative period in decreasing swelling and pain after extraction of impacted third molars. The study group will be comprised of subjects that will receive PEMF Actiband treatment for postoperative management of pain and edema. The control group will be comprised of the subjects that will receive a placebo patch as treatment for postoperative management of pain and edema. Thirty (30) subjects will be randomly assigned to each group. Enrollment will continue until 60 qualified subjects have been recruited. Eligibility criteria will be based on the standards for conducting oral surgery procedures on third molar extractions, in addition to safety considerations and contraindications for the Actiband and other agents to be used. Moreover, the selected subjects will have the same surgical difficulty and surgical trauma anticipated standardized by classification system of impacted third molars. All inclusion and exclusion criteria will be thoroughly explained in the relevant section of this proposal. Postoperative edema and pain will be evaluated using 3dMD and Visual Analog Scale, respectively. Different measurements will be obtained immediately before the surgery and in standard periodic intervals as described in the Materials and Methods section of the proposal. Any difference in postoperative edema, pain, and site responsible for request of rescue pain medication will be compared and analyzed between the two groups.

Background : Edema of lower extremities is a concern ranging from 19 % to 60% of palliative cancer patients. Lymphedema decreases mobility, induces pain, impacts daily activities, esthetic and behavior. Usual treatment is based on diuretics and physiotherapy but is often unsuccessful. In case of conventional treatment failure, in palliative care, subcutaneous drainage can be discussed with the patients. The technique is simple, easy to use but remains off the record. Since 2004, 23 cases were reported with various methods. All the cases reported were undertaken with various technical approaches and efficacy criteria. Purpose : Investigator hypothesize that the subcutaneous drainage of edema (SDO) is effective in case of refractory lymphedema of the lower limbs in palliative care and leads to an improvement in QOL in terms of behavioral and autonomy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Ranibizumab and Tocilizumab alone and in combination in eyes with Diabetic Macular Edema.

The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of intravitreal injections of ranibizumab and aflibercept on systemic VEGF levels in DME patients in a detailed time course.

Primary Objective: • To collect post-approval safety data related to intraocular pressure (IOP) after one or more injections of Iluvien as standard of care in subjects with diabetic macular edema (DME). Secondary Objectives: • To collect visual and anatomic outcome data after one or more injections of Iluvien as standard of care in subjects with diabetic macular edema (DME).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Vasculera in reducing post procedural pain, bruising and edema in the post procedure period for patients diagnosed with C2-C5 disease requiring an intervention(s). The hypothesis is that Vasculera will reduce post procedural pain, bruising and edema for patients requiring an intervention. This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Vasculera is a specially formulated prescription medical food product for the clinical dietary management of the metabolic processes of chronic venous insufficiency. Vasculera has limited side effects, please see the product insert. A total of 110 patients will be enrolled into this study. Patients will be randomized to receive Vasculera (Study Product) or placebo. Study Product or placebo will be prescribed as one (1) tablet twice a day.

The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of bevacizumab (Avastin) with another a dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex), with respect to anatomic and visual outcomes as well as injection frequency in subjects undergoing cataract surgery with a concurrent diagnosis of diabetic macular edema (DME).
