Active clinical trials for "Rupture"

Comparative study on efficacy of haemostatic therapy guided either by standard laboratory coagulation parameters or point-of-care testing in patients undergoing vascular surgical procedures. We investigate the amount of perioperative bleeding and the number of blood product used. Inclusion criteria Patients scheduled for elective and acute open aorta surgery or undergoing acute aorta surgery with minimally invasive techniques and were provided treatment in the operating theatre and/or ICU attached to perioperative care, they must be at least 18 years of age and written informed consent was obtained from the patient or his/her legal representative. Randomisation technique Patients will be randomly assigned to each of two treatment groups using sealed envelopes. In group 1 (G1) haemostasis strategy guided by conventional coagulation tests, while in group 2 (G2) transfusion algorithms guided by point-of-care (POC) tests will be carried out. Sampling techniques and measurements For assessment of monitored parameters shall be used arterial or venous blood depending on the catheter placed preoperatively. In case of the above mentioned vascular surgical procedures, all patients will receive arterial cannula routinely, and, depending on the extension of procedure, as appropriate, a central venous catheter will be inserted as well. Sampling in the patient groups shall be performed as follows: pre- and postoperative evaluation of standard laboratory parameters in all patients evaluation of standard laboratory parameters and arterial Astrup test during and after surgery in group 1, if the blood loss volume reaches 1,5 ml/kg/minute during 20 minutes in case of elective surgery: thromboelastometry and arterial Astrup test during and after surgery in group 2 if the blood loss volume reaches 1,5 ml/kg/minute during 20 minutes in case of acute surgery: thromboelastometry and arterial Astrup test before, during and after surgery in group 2 in case of positive anamnesis, preoperative platelet aggregation test in both groups Besides the above samplings, routine lab tests (blood gas, blood count, sodium (Na), potassium (K), parameters of renal and liver function, clotting and inflammation, lactic acid, blood sugar) will be performed every day as usual during intensive therapy.

Preterm premature rupture of membrane is associated with increased oxidative stress and inflammatory process, enhancing the activity or the availability of antioxidants may modulate the inflammatory response associated with PPROM, thereby reducing oxidative stress and the risk to the fetus. In this study the investigators sought to determine the effects of Pomegranate 1. On the patients (maternal and fetal) oxidative stress and inflammation associated with PPROM. 2. On the time interval from PPROM to delivery and on the patients (fetal )Ph and apger scores

The purpose of this study is to estimate the effective of two suture methods in the treatment of Achilles rupture.

Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) is treated with an antibiotic, erythromycin or azithromycin, to prolong pregnancy. Erythromycin is taken for several days and can result in stomach upset in some patients, causing them to stop taking the medication. Therefore, azithromycin is often prescribed instead. Azithromycin is usually taken only once and stomach upset is not seen or greatly reduced. The goal of this study is to see if there is a difference between the antibiotic (azithromycin) compared to the antibiotic (erythromycin) in prolonging pregnancy in patients with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM). The working hypothesis is that there is no difference in the clinical effectiveness between antibiotic regimens containing the macrolides azithromycin and erythromycin for prolonging latency in PPROM.

The purpose of the study is to compare the treatment by wearing shoes inclined at kinesitherapy because it is the first treatment offered by primary care physicians in chronic Achilles tendinopathy.

A Randomized Clinical Trial with security and dose testing of Sildenafil Citrate in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a rupture of a cerebral aneurism for prevention of cerebral vasospasm. The cerebral vasospasm is a decrease in blood flow that occurs when the intracranial vessels lose their capability of self-control of dilations and contractions. Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage without neurological deficits who underwent endovascular or surgical correction of the aneurysm can participate in this trial. They will be randomized to a daily doses of 75 mg of Sildenafil, 150 mg of Sildenafil or Placebo from the third to the 14th day post bleeding. Today there is no proven clinical treatment for prevention of cerebral vasospasm.

Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) at term is a rupture that occurs at term (> 37 weeks) before the start of labor. The purpose of the study was to compare the safety and efficacy of two agents used in induction of labor in women with term PROM Propess (Controlled release dinoprostone, Vaginal Delivery System) and Prostin E2 (Dinoprostone vaginal Tablet). Women will be randomised to two treatment groups. Although some studies support efficacy of the Propess for cervical ripening at term in induction of labor with intact membranes, it has not been well studied in women with PROM at term.

The principal aim of this study is to help obstetricians to diagnose chorioamniotic infection early, in cases of premature rupture of the fetal membranes before 34 WA, by proposing earlier and more specific markers of infection than FBC and CRP. The aim is to reduce vital and functional risk of acute chorioamnionitis for the mother, the fetus or the newborn,. If the kinetics profile of one or several markers correlates strongly with the diagnosis of chorioamnionitis, it could be used in clinical practice, possibly in the context of another clinical study. The results of the study presented here are destined to be published in obstetrics journals.

The investigators will test the hypothesis that in a preterm population with a gestational age of 16+0 and 36+6 weeks AmniSure PAMG-1 rapid immunoassay will be more accurate than conventional methods (speculum examination for combination of pooling, nitrazine and ferning) for the detection of Preterm Prelabour Rupture of Membranes (PROM).

In this study the investigators sought to determine the effects of Pomegranate (Natural pomegranate polyphenol (P. granatum L) extract) : On the maternal and fetal oxidative stress and inflammation associated with PPROM. On the time interval from PPROM to delivery and on fetal Ph and apger score.
