Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

This study is to prospectively investigate the cardiac dose-sparing effect and clinical benefit of deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) technique. Patients with left-sided breast cancer treated with breast conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy is enrolled. Radiotherapy is delivered with either free-breathing or deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) technique. The cardiac dose parameters and cardiac toxicity are prospective evaluated, and the dose-effect relationship is analyzed.

The goal of this observational study is to identify the risk factors for early acute lung injury (ALI) after liver transplantation in children .The main questions it aims to answer are what the risk factors are for early ALI in children and to evaluate the predictive value for the development of ALI.Participants will be divided into non-ALI group and ALI group according to whether they had ALI in a week after liver transplantation.Researchers will compare the difference between the two groups and use multivariate logistic regression analysis to screen the risk factors of ALI, and receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of risk factors.

This research aims to assess physiotherapy utilization in the treatment of patients with an anterior-cruciate ligament knee injury, when delivered before their surgery (prehab), and its potential effects on absence from work, and patients global health consumptions (before and after the surgery).

Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) results in hand and arm function impairments and decreased independence in performance of daily activities such as bathing, eating, dressing, writing, or typing. Recent approaches that involve the application of non-invasive brain stimulation have the potential to strengthen the remaining connections between the brain and the spinal cord for improved hand function. Combining brain stimulation with performing upper limb functional tasks may further increase the ability of individuals with tetraplegia to use their hands. The purpose of this study is to investigate if "random noise", a special type of brain stimulation that most people cannot feel, can be used to enhance upper limb function in individuals with spinal cord injury. Specifically, the investigators will examine if a combined treatment protocol of random noise and fine motor training results in greater improvements in motor and sensory hand function compared to fine motor training alone.

To determine the effectiveness of manually assisted cough technique on peak cough flow and pulmonary functions in patients with incomplete cervical spine injury. Previous studies were designed to target only a small sample. Level and American Spinal Cord Injury Association (ASIA) scale were not specified so this study covers this aspect.

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors, known as statins, are widely used to reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. As lipid-lowering drugs, statins exert neuroprotective effects on ischemic stroke. this study will investigate whether the protective effect of statins is mediated by their ability to impact inflammation and oxygen free radical levels in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. Could Statins affect the neuroinflamation which occurs after traumatic brain injury?

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel Platform Wound Device (PWD) in its delivery of a local antibiotic, 0.1% Gentamycin cream, to prevent or treat infection in torso and extremity wounds. The hypothesis is that the PWD will be a safe and effective method to provide topical antibiotics to a torso or extremity wound, non-inferior to the current standard of care. This treatment will reduce or rapidly eradicate infection.

The primary objective of this post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) investigation is to confirm safety and performance of Avance® Solo NPWT System in low to moderate exuding acute (traumatic wounds and flaps and grafts), as well as subacute (e.g., dehisced wounds) wounds when used in accordance with the Instructions for Use, for up to 28 days.

The purpose of this preliminary study is to examine the effects of a guided online acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention combined with psychoeducation on people with spinal cord injury (SCI) who experience psychological distress.

Phase III, multinational, multicentre, randomized, prospective, double blind, parallel groups, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the analgesic effects of Test Diclofenac Sodium 140mg medicated plaster, Reference DIEP 180 mg medicated plaster, Flector® and Placebo plaster in patients with painful and phlogistic disease due to acute traumatic events of the limbs.
