Active clinical trials for "Emergencies"

NephroCheck is measuring the concentration of a certain protein combination in the urine of patients. In elevated values there is a probability of renal failure (already proven in intensive care patients). The investigators would like to investigate whether the investigators can predict renal failure in patients receiving contrast enhanced CT's in the emergency department. That would lead to an earlier nephrologist consult in those patients.

The purpose of this research is to measure the endotracheal tube cuff pressure in patients who have been endotracheally intubated emergently in the emergency department or in the field by prehospital personnel. Overinflation of ETTc pressure is associated with injury, and we seek to determine if the phenomenon of excessively inflated ETTc can be detected in endotracheally intubated patients in the ED. There is no experimental aspect to this study, it is only descriptive. Measurement of ETTc pressure is already performed by respiratory therapy/respiratory care. We simply seek to assess these measurements to determine if any patients in fact have high ETTc pressure. If it is found that patients do have ETTc with high pressures, this might allow emergency department staff or prehospital personnel such as paramedics or EMTs to use this information to seek methods by which endotracheal intubation can be improved and patients can be intubated without excessive ETTc pressure. This is a pilot study. We have conducted several in vitro studies, which have all demonstrated that paramedics, EMTs, and emergency department physicians practice endotracheal intubation in a method that might result in excessively inflated ETTc.

This study will evaluate various performance metrics of emergency department operations after the implementation of computerized physician order entry in an academic emergency department.

Expanded access Protocol to treat LHON subjects with EPI743

To provide ruxolitinib through an expanded access program for the treatment of cytokine storm due to COVID-19 in the United States to patients who are eligible but not able to be hospitalized or who are hospitalized with a clinical diagnosis and/or positive test for SARD-CoV-2 infection.

This study provides emergency use of the unapproved study medication in ALF patients with acute liver failure who are not responding to standard of care.

The Primary objective is to explore ambulance service attendance at incidents involving alcohol and/or substance use over the period of the pandemic lockdown, and the following months. This will be to determine prevalence and explore factors such as patient gender, age, ethnicity or location. Analysis will examine the calls over the course of the year prior to the lockdown, and then compare this to the period of lockdown and following months.

Critical patients in emergency room are seriously situations that need quickly diagnosis and treatment. Different predictors of prognosis can be related with mortality and morbidity in-hospital and in long-term. In Brazil, this kind of registry is not available. The aim of the study is analysis and report data about critical patients in Emergency Departments over all country, showing demographic, clinical and prognosis data about that in Brazil.

Describe and analyze routes and modes of care for patients in emergency consultant in various emergency care and public psychiatric outpatient devices to provide useful information to optimize trajectories taken into psychiatric load on the Eurométropole territory upstream and downstream of where they viewed urgently.

The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the percentage of children with appendicitis who were given analgesics or opioids in the ER, to reduce their pain.
