Active clinical trials for "Lacerations"

Lacerations are a common reason for presentation to the Emergency Department and children needing laceration repair with sutures are experiencing pain and anxiety. Virtual Reality (VR) is an immersive experience using sight, sound, and position sense. Using VR may enhance distraction during the painful procedure and may reduce attention to pain. This study will randomize children (6 - 16 years old) to receive Virtual Reality or standard of care in addition to pharmacoanalgesia during a laceration repair procedure. Investigators will measure pain, anxiety, satisfaction, amount of analgesia and the length of procedure and compare between the two groups.

Microbiome studies may be highlighted as crucial in the development of sleep disorder for TBI patients. The microbiota-gut-brain connection may further provide an opportunity for microbiota manipulation to treat the TBI patients with sleep disorders.This study is to investigate whether exist the relationship between sleep disorder and circadian rhythm of patients with TBI or not and focus the study on the potential of the host-microbiota interaction in regulating sleep disorder.
