Active clinical trials for "Tissue Adhesions"

A randomized, single-blind, multi-center, Phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adhesion barrier Mediclore versus no treatment in patients with total thyroidectomy

Chronic abdominal and pelvic pain is a common complaint following peritoneal surgery, affecting 20-40% of patients. Adhesions account for 60% of chronic postoperative pain cases, suggesting that adhesiolysis can play an important role in the management of such pain. Despite initial promising results regarding the effect of adhesiolysis on post-operative pain, implementation of the procedure has been challenging. The major problems associated with adhesiolysis for pain are recurrence of pain, need for invasive diagnosis with high rates of 'negative' laparoscopies, and inadvertent bowel injury during surgery. However, diagnosis and treatment of adhesions may be improved through the use of novel cine-MRI techniques, and with application of anti-adhesion barriers following adhesiolysis. In this study the investigators evaluate a new practice-based approach to the problem of chronic post-operative pain caused by adhesions. This practice-based approach includes use of a novel imaging technique for adhesions (cine-MRI) and shared decision making. Cine-MRI holds promise to diagnose and map adhesions. Thus patients with no adhesions, or high risk for bowel injury, can be waived from surgical treatment. By using anti-adhesion barriers the investigators attempt to prevent adhesion reformation and improve long-term outcomes of adhesiolysis.

Patients suffering of subfertility as a consequence of intrauterine adhesions could be treated with hysteroscopic adhesiolysis. Adhesion recurrence may occur postoperative. An intrauterine balloon, inserted after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, may prevent adhesion reformation. A Foley catheter can serve for this purpose, but its not ideal. COOK medical® developed a hearth shaped intrauterine balloon to reduce bleeding after intrauterine surgery. We aimed to perform a pilot study of 10 procedures with insertion of a hearth shaped intrauterine balloon as antiadhesion method subsequent to a hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, to study its feasibility in terms of surgeon's and patient's experience.

Asherman's syndrome is characterized by the presence of intrauterine adhesions (IUA) as well as symptoms such as amenorrhea, hypomenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. The gold standard for the treatment of intrauterine adhesions is hysteroscopic intrauterine adhesions. The recurrence of intrauterine adhesions is a major challenge in clinical practice. The isolation of barriers in the uterine cavity may be a measure to reduce postoperative re adhesion, but the effect of different devices is different. Therefore, this study was conducted.

The primary objective of this study was to compare the adhesive quality of the current Mylan estradiol placebo transdermal system, with that of an alternate second generation Mylan estradiol placebo transdermal system following a single system application. As a secondary objective, primary dermal irritation was assessed after removal of each transdermal system.

Asherman's syndrome is characterized by the presence of intrauterine adhesions (IUA) as well as symptoms such as amenorrhea, hypomenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. The gold standard for the treatment of intrauterine adhesions is hysteroscopic intrauterine adhesions. The recurrence of intrauterine adhesions is a major challenge in clinical practice. Intrauterine balloon has been used for the prevention of intrauterine adhesions. It has been reported that dried biological amnion graft was used to prevent adhesion after the operation of intrauterine adhesions. Estrogen is also used for postoperative prevention of intrauterine adhesions. Intrauterine balloon can reduce the recurrence of adhesions after operation. Disposable balloon uterine stent，which is an innovative intrauterine balloon，is specially designed to fit into the cavity of the uterus. Does Disposable balloon uterine stent and amniotic products combine estrogen therapy improve clinical outcomes? Therefore, this study was conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the bioequivalence of the hormones (ie, norelgestromin [NGMN] and ethinyl estradiol [EE]) from the transdermal contraceptive patch and to evaluate the adhesion of the transdermal contraceptive patch using the newly sourced adhesive component, as compared to the currently marketed EVRA patch.

In this prospective, randomized, controlled study, the investigators wish to compare the efficacy of immediate and delayed intrauterine balloon (IUB) therapy in the prevention of adhesion reformation after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis.

This is a multicenter, prospective, observational, Phase 4 study that will assess clinical outcomes and safety of JETREA® administered in a real-world setting for the treatment of symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) by assessing anatomical and functional outcomes in 1500 patients recruited across approximately 120 USA retina sites.

To estimate the efficacy and safety of dried biological amnion graft after hysteroscopic lysis of intrauterine adhesions.
