Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

The FIFA 11 + is an injury prevention that has shown to improve physical performance and prevent injuries in male futsal players, however, this injury prevention program has not been tested in female futsal players. The investigators aim to test the effects of the FIFA 11 + program on physical performance and injury prevention in female futsal players.

This is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study about Cyclosporine A (CSP) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Cyclosporine A is a drug already marketed and available for other diseases, but is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of traumatic brain injury. The effect of Cyclosporine A on chemicals produced following brain injury is being determined using doses no larger than those used for patients having organ transplant. It is also being given for a much shorter time period (3 days). It is not know if side effects seen in patients taking cyclosporine A will occur when it is given for only 3 days. It is not known if patients with brain injury that are treated with cyclosporine A will have side effects like those seen in organ transplant patients.

This study investigates the effect of upper extremity exercise on postprandial lipemia (PPL) in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). Participants are measured at rest and fed a standardized meal following seated rest (CON) or arm cycling exercise (ACE). The meal is infused with "stable isotope lipid tracers" that allow for determination of the end fates of the fat in the meal.

The main objective is to study the efficacy of topical antibiotic therapy with Amoxicillin / Clavulanic acid in the prevention of surgical wound infection in patients undergoing to colorectal surgery

Anterior cruciate ligament injury programs are less successful in women's basketball than soccer players, yet the reason for this discrepancy is unknown. Thus, this study will recruit high school aged girl's basketball and soccer players, randomized teams into control and experimental groups, administer an ACL injury prevention program in the experimental group and compare the two groups on their lower extremity biomechanics before and after completion of the program. Biomechanical analyses will help determine the extent to which women's basketball and soccer players respond differently to a uniform injury prevention program, and whether this prevention program provides an adequate stimulus to improve lower extremity biomechanics during basketball-specific tasks.

Human Umbilical Cord-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (UC-MSC) and Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells (BMMC) from the patient injected into the spinal fluid intrathecally and injected intravenously (IV) is a safe and therapeutic procedure for spinal cord injury (SCI) patients.

The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the efficiency of hand scrubbing by Povidone-Iodine solution 10% over 7.5% concentration in decreasing post-cesarean section wound infections & compare side effects of both agents.
