Active clinical trials for "Fatigue"

The purpose of this study is to investigate fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and to determine the correlation between the symptom and cerebral changes.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of fatigue in severely affected transplant patients.

Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), disease in remission and chronic fatigue will receive oral Thiamine treatment for 4 weeks in a RCT, cross-over study.

The investigation will be conducted as a double blinded, randomized, crossover within-participant comparison design with two 1-week intervention periods separated by 2-weeks for wash out, recovery, period.

Fatigue is a major concern during and after cancer therapy with severe impact on quality of life. Yet, sound comparable data on fatigue prevalence, severity, and impact on daily life across different tumor entities is lacking. Furthermore, little is known about the current state of screening, counselling and treatment of fatigue. Thus, the FiX-Study aims to assess such data to identify patient groups with especial need for an improved fatigue management and treatment. A minimum of n=3000 patients about equally distributed about the 16 most common tumor entities shall be recruited between year 1 and 2 after primary cancer diagnosis via the cancer registry Baden-Württemberg. Data on fatigue (EORTC QLQ-FA12, BFI), quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30), depression and anxiety (PAQ-4), and information about screening and treatment of fatigue will be assessed via self-reported questionnaires. Clinical data regarding tumor and treatment characteristics will be derived from the cancer registry. This trial is imbedded in a larger research agenda on fatigue and will provide the basis for the development of an individually-tailored fatigue program.

Fatigue is common and disabling in patients with post-COVID syndrome. There is no treatment available at this moment, and fatigue has important consequences. The main aim of this study is to evaluate the changes in the severity of fatigue using non-invasive neuromodulation in patients with post-COVID condition. This is a randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial using transcranial direct current stimulation. Secondary aims include changes in cognition, depression, and quality of life.

The investigation will be conducted as a double blinded, randomized, parallel between treatment conditions comparison design with two different groups ingesting a different supplement each one.

supplementation with L-carnitine that is available both as an FDA-approved therapy for primary carnitine deficiency, as well as widely available as an over-the-counter ergogenic aid will improve wellbeing and function measured by questionnaires in patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). based on our review of literature that addition of health coaching (HC) to L-carnitine will yield greater gains.

The study hypothesis is a improved muscle fatigue resistance induced by low-level laser therapy applied between sets of intense exercises.

Fatigue is frequently identified as one of the most troublesome symptoms in cancer patients and there are very few conventional therapies which can address the symptom of fatigue in patients who are undergoing cancer treatment. This study will be testing whether the administration of a complementary therapy (individualized homeopathy) to a patient undergoing chemotherapy treatment is feasible and whether this treatment can lessen the fatigue symptoms of adults. The study will also test whether the n-of-1 study design is feasible in this population.
