Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

This study takes the injury situation of a large ski resort in Chongli during the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 snow seasons as an example, aiming to preliminarily understand the injury situation of mass skiing in ski resorts in China, and provide a basis for predicting the rapidly growing medical demand for treatment and treatment of ski injuries in the context of 2022 Winter Olympic Games.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between coagulopathy during the perioperative period (before the operation and on the first day after the operation) and the long-term survival of traumatic brain injury patients undergoing surgery, as well as to explore the predisposing risk factors that may cause perioperative coagulopathy.

The aim of this study is to evaluate posterior segment changes in the non-traumatic eye after open globe injury.

The aim of this retrospective study is to review the annual incidence, management, and outcomes of bile duct injuries (BDI) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in a population-based cohort during 2008-2018 in Estonia.

We evaluated a cohort of adult trauma patients transported to emergency departments. The first vital signs were used to calculate the SI, MSI, and rSIG. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) and test results were used to compare the discriminant performance of the indices on short-term mortality and poor functional outcome. A subgroup analysis of geriatric patients, traumatic brain injury, penetrating injury, and non-penetrating injury was performed.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is devastating event, the individual become significant burden on their family and society SCI is impairments of sensory, motor and autonomic functions. There is no proper cure and care after SCI, no proper assessment and treatment is present in under developed countries Cross sectional study design will be used and 75 patients included in this study. The population included age 21-55 years, both gender included, teraplegic with lesion level C5-C7, Mini Mental State of Examination ≥24, patient should be medically stable. The patient excluded with history of peripheral nerve lesion as brachial pluxes impairment. For assessment of hand function tools should be used tenodesis grip strength is assessed Graded Redefined Assessment of Strength sensibility and prehension (GRASSP test), and functional hand recovery assessed by jebsen_Taylor Hand function test (JTHFT_IT), hand dynamo meter for grip strength, Action Arm reach test for hand function and spinal cord independence measure will be used. Pearson correlation will be uses to find the association between hand grip strength and functional activities of hand. The collected data will be analyzed by using SPSS 23.

Patients with sickle cell disease may be at risk for acute kidney injury (AKI)during sickle cell crisis (pain or acute chest syndrome). This study will evaluate the role of hemolysis during SCD crisis on the development of AKI and the role for monitoring urine biomarkers during an admission for crisis and during well clinic follow-up.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in approximately one-third of patients undergoing cardiac surgery (CS), and represents one of the most significant negative predictors of patient outcome in this population. The investigators sought to examine the risk factors associated with the development of AKI and renal recovery in patients undergoing cardiac surgery at San Bortolo Hospital, Italy 2014-2015.

The general population is aging, today 12% of the United States population is older than 65 and it is estimated that by 2020 the number of people in the United States older than 65 will outnumber children younger than 5. As the general population ages, the spinal cord injury (SCI) population is also aging and it is estimated that 14% is older than 60. Although persons with SCI are living longer, life expectancy remains below that of the general population with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases accounting for more than 25% of all deaths since 1995. Similar to findings in the general population, BP dysregulation may impact cognitive function, and investigators reported poorer performance on tasks of memory and attention processing in hypotensive individuals with SCI compared to a normotensive SCI cohort. Thus, it is imperative that investigators work to minimize the impact of cognitive deficits on these aspects of life quality in persons with SCI as they age. Therefore the goals of this study are: Study 1) to compare cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and cognitive function and fMRI between older individuals with SCI (50-75 years) and older age-matched controls and Study 2) to determine 3-5 year longitudinal changes in cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and cognitive function and fMRI in relatively young individuals with SCI (28-54 years) compared to relatively young age-matched controls.
