Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The study is conducted in women at the menopause with a clinical diagnosis of Genitourinary Syndrome, which presents symptoms in of vulvovaginal atrophy and tract urinary and were treated with radiofrequency non ablative technique for capacitive transfer in intra-vaginal. All participants were evaluated by a physical therapist and did the exam of PH vaginal, cell maturation index and questionnaires. The participants made five sessions of Radio Frequency (RF) with an interval of seven days between them. The application of RF was performed by physical therapist trained in the technique of radio frequency through the Capenergie brand device with capacitive transfer method using non-ablative handle with active electrode intra-vaginal and coupling electrode placed on the participant's back. For application, the participants were in gynecological position. The session had an average duration above 20 minutes. The temperature was measured by an infrared thermometer when it reached 41graus radiofrequency was maintained for 2 minutes in the anterior wall and 2 minutes more in the posterior wall of vagina.

Sonodyn is an investigational device that within this clinical investigation is intended for use in patients suffering from low back pain, tension headache or neck pain, originating from therapy-resistant myofascial pain syndrome. Myofascial pain syndrome is a prevalent pain condition in the adult population and a common cause of pain and dysfunction in the musculoskeletal system. It is a trigger point-induced regional musculoskeletal pain disorder affecting one or more muscles or groups of muscles. Sonodyn is a handheld medical device that combines low-energy ultrasound, electrical and magnetic field stimulation for non-invasive transcutaneous treatment of chronic myofascial pain syndrome. Sonodyn is a battery-operated, rechargeable stimulation device to be placed over specific trigger points for associated pain patterns in the human body. It emits ultrasound, electrical and magnetic stimulation signals with a pre-defined set of parameters for each of the independently operated power sources. The study will follow a prospective, randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind parallel group design. It will be conducted as a multi-center investigation at 6 sites in Austria and Switzerland. Patients are randomized in a 2:1 ratio into Treatment and Control. Active Sonodyn therapy (Treatment) No therapy (Sham Control) Two types of Sonodyn devices will be used: a fully functional one for Therapy arm patients that can deliver stimulation, and a non-functional one for Control arm patients that cannot convey any energy signals to the device output. The devices will look fully identical. Randomization will be stratified by study site, pain diagnosis and sex of the patient. For each subject, after a screening phase of 1 week, patients will be treated for 3 weeks with a follow-up of additional 8 weeks, adding up to 12 weeks. During treatment patients will activate their device 3 times a day for 10 minutes each. During screening, treatment and follow-up period, all patients will twice per day report the average and maximum intensity of their pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Patients will also enter the date, amount, and time of intake of rescue medication, if applicable. The primary objective of this study is to assess the impact on pain. Secondary objectives are to compare the performance between active therapy and sham, as well as to correlate changes in pain intensity with other pain related scales.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of vagal nerve stimulation on patients with post COVID syndrome who have fatigue and headache.

The study compares two medicines for treatment of children born small and who stay small, or with Turner Syndrome, Noonan Syndrome, or idiopathic short stature. The purpose of the study is to see how well treatment with somapacitan works compared to treatment with Norditropin®. Somapacitan is a new medicine, and Norditropin® is a medicine doctors can already prescribe in some countries. The study will last for about 3 years. The participants will either get somapacitan once a week for 3 years or Norditropin® once a day for 1 year followed by somapacitan once a week for 2 years. Which treatment the participants get is decided by chance.

The purpose of this study is to assess the drug absorption of oral antibiotics in patients with short bowel syndrome.

The aim of this study is to compare the surgical outcomes of the two IOL implantation methods for eyes with cataract and PEX in a single-center and with highly experienced surgeons. The goal is to acquire relevant information regarding these two IOL implantation techniques, which will help surgeons to decide which approach to choose, ultimately resulting in a benefit for patients with PEX syndrome who require cataract surgery. The main questions are: Is there a difference in lens tilt and decentration between the both methods. Is there a difference in the frequency and amount of capsular phimosis between the both methods.

The aim of this study is to compare the developed home-based surface electrical stimulation program to the controls in computer office workers with MPS.

Patients with post-Covid-19 syndrome are at high risk of developing cardiovascular diseases 12 months after acute infection of COVID-19. We recently revealed that these patients have elevated muscular sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), vascular dysfunction, impaired cardiac diastolic function, and reduced functional capacity. Considering that these outcomes are independent predictors of cardiovascular mortality, it is urgent to restore the cardiovascular health of these patients. High resistance inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) at 75% of pressure inspiratory (PImax) performed at home (5 min/session, 5-7 times/week per 6 weeks) reduces the MSNA, improves the endothelial function and lowers blood pressure in different populations. Based on these findings, IMST (75% PImax) is an excellent therapeutic option for patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome. Therefore, the aim of the present proposal is to test whether IMST (75% PImax) reduces sympathetic activity, improves vascular function, and restores cardiac function, evoking an increase in functional capacity in patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome. To test these hypotheses we will conduct a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial to test these hypotheses.

A total of 93 suitable patients will be randomly allocated into three groups: Group A will receive both low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy and a tailored exercise program, Group B will receive only low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy, and Group C will receive only the tailored exercise program.

Piriformis syndrome is a neuro muscular disorder which occur due to the compression and irritation of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle causing pain, tingling, and numbness in the buttocks and along the sciatic nerve. Muscle energy technique is one of manual technique in which the muscle uses its own energy in the form of isometric contraction to relax the muscle by the autogenic inhibition of reciprocal inhibition. Reciprocal inhibition in muscle energy technique was succeeded in relieving pain and improves flexibility.
