Active clinical trials for "Malnutrition"

Objective: subjects to compare the single dose bioavailability of Torrent's Pioglitazone Hydrochloride and Metformin Hydrochloride Tablets 15 mg/850 mg and Actoplus Met® (pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride) Tablets 15 mg/850 mg of Takeda Pharmaceuticals America, Inc. USA. Dosing periods of studies were separated by a washout period of 14 days. Study Design: Randomized, Two-Way Crossover, Single-Dose, and Open-Label

Objective: Primary objective of the present study was to compare the single dose bioavailability of Torrent's Olanzapine Orally Disintegrating 5 mg Tablets versus Zyprexa® Zydis® 5 mg Tablets (Reference formulation; Eli Lilly and Company, USA). Dosing periods were separated by a washout period during fed study. Study Design: Open-Label, Randomised, two Period, two treatment, Crossover, Single-Dose Bioequivalence Study

The primary objective of the study is to determine if the use of volunteers employed specifically to focus on mealtime assistance can increase food and nutrient intake of patients admitted to an acute Care of the Elderly ward. The sustainability of providing helpers to increase dietary intake over a year will be assessed and linked to actual dietary intake. The secondary objectives are to assess the association between dietary intake resulting from mealtime assistance and patient satisfaction, malnutrition risk, body composition, grip strength, length of hospital stay and hospital mortality.

Objective: Primary objective of the present study was to compare the single dose bioavailability of Torrent's Clopidogrel Tablets USP 1 × 75 mg and Plavix® (Clopidogrel Bisulfate) Tablets 1 × 75 mg of Bristol-Myers Squibb/Sanofi Pharmaceuticals, USA. Dosing periods were separated by a washout period of 7 days. Study Design: Open-Label, Randomised, two Period, two treatment, Crossover, Single-Dose Bioequivalence Study

The study aims to confirm the acceptability of lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) for use as nutritional supplements for pregnant and lactating women (PLW) or infants and young children (IYC) and micronutrient powder (MNP) for use as nutritional supplements for infants and young children in Bangladesh.We hypothesized that at least 75 percent of the test dose of LNS and MNP offered to PLW and IYC will be consumed by them.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of an individual multifactorial intervention on falls and undernutrition risk in very older people in the community.

The objective of this study was to compare the rate and extent of absorption of Teva Pharmaceuticals USA valacyclovir and GlaxoSmithKline, USA (Valtrex) valacyclovir, administered as 1 x 1000 mg tablet under fed conditions.

It is unclear whether children with HIV and severe acute malnutrition can be started on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) safely while they are still malnourished and the manner in which this therapy should start. This study will examine the safety, efficacy, and metabolism of children started on HAART while still severely malnourished.

We hypothesize that it is feasible to integrate a program of Nutritional Care and Pychosocial Stimulation into the Community Clinics in Bangladesh and thereby improve malnourished children's growth and development after a year of intervention.

Intravenous nutrition is an important therapy for the recovery of many patients. It is indicated when the patients cannot take food by mouth or use their intestines for feeding. It is important to indicate it in the appropriate setting because it's not free of complications and is a costly treatment. Some of the complications are: elevated blood sugar or lipids, elevated liver function tests, infection of the catheter or device used to administer intravenous nutrition. Intravenous nutrition is composed by proteins, lipids, carbohydrates (sugar in the form of glucose) and vitamins. Until recently, Intralipid, a soybean oil-based lipid emulsion was the only lipid available in Canada for this kind of nutrition. Since 2010, a new lipid emulsion (ClinOleic) based on olive-oil has been approved by Health Canada for use in intravenous nutrition. There is an increasing need for hospitals to evaluate the quality of intravenous nutrition administered to hospitalized patients in terms of: assessing indications, prescription, complications, clinical results and costs. The objective of this study is to determine if intravenous nutrition prescribed in hospitalized patients is indicated following existing guidelines in terms of timing of nutrition support, prescription, monitoring and whether it is associated with complications. In addition, length of stay and mortality will be assessed. Also, we will evaluate nutritional, infectious and inflammatory parameters in patients receiving soybean oil-based lipid emulsion (Intralipid) compared to those of patients receiving olive oil-based lipid emulsion (ClinOleic).
