Geriatric Emergency Department Fall Injury Prevention Project
FallFall Injury1 moreThis prospective randomized study will assess an emergency department (ED) based prevention strategy in geriatric patients at high risk for recurrent falls and injury. Falling is a major health hazard in older adults with a number of proposed but unproven protocols to prevent fall-related injuries. This study proposes to study one of these strategies, the CDC's Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths and Injuries program (the STEADI Program).
Stroke Rate in Patients With Blunt Cerebrovascular Injury (BCVI) Treated With Oral Acetylsalicylic...
Blunt Cerebrovascular InjuryThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare difference between Aspirin 81 mg and Aspirin 325 mg in preventing strokes in patients with head and neck vessels injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: If Aspirin 81 mg efficacy in prevention of stroke in patients with head and neck vessels injury is not lower than and Aspirin 325 mg. If rate of hemorrhagic complications in patients with head and neck vessels injury taking Aspirin 81 mg is not higher than patients that take Aspirin 325 mg.

Smoke Inhalation InjuryAcute Lung InjuryThis study aims to examine the value of nebulized heparin for prevention of acute lung injury in adult patients suffering smoke inhalation injury. Patients will be randomized to receive nebulized heparin or an equal volume of normal saline for 14 days and the incidence of acute lung injury will be compared in either group.
Elucidate the Mechanisms, Development and Effectiveness of Balance Control and Gait Strategy After...
Mild Traumatic Brain InjuryThe purpose of this study is to innovatively design and develop computerized dual-task balance training modules and home modules, and conduct proactive clinical verification to focus on the effectiveness of balance control and gait stabilization strategies. It is expected that in addition to the development of the training module, a proactive study will be conducted at the same time. During the period from the fourth quarter of the first year to the second year, there will be 25 patients in the experimental group and 25 patients in the control group. A total of 50 patients will undergo preliminary efficacy analysis.

Wound Healing Endpoint and Recurrence
Chronic WoundBurn Wound5 moreThis prospective pilot study is to enroll patients with clinically-defined infected wounds. Patients enrolled in the study will be followed for 16 weeks for wound closure (Phase A), and will then begin Phase B. 265 clinically diagnosed infected burn or chronic wound patients will be recruited for this study in Phase A. Based on the expectation that 89% of these wounds will heal within 16 weeks of enrollment, 234 of these patients will continue with the study for Phase B.
