Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

Biological samples are important human genetic resources, which can provide great value for medical research, and how to protect and rationally utilize them is of great importance.However, at present, the blood samples after laboratory examination and the damaged tissue cleaned up in the operation will be treated as medical waste and treated according to the standard of medical waste.However, if these samples can be effectively collected and reasonably used, they can provide extremely high value for the study of sports injury-related diseases.Sports injury and joint structure belongs to multiple factors cause abnormal, through the degenerative osteoarthritis, cruciate ligament injury, patellar dislocation, discoid meniscus injury related basic research project establishment and collect the founding the research institute of sports medicine treated patients with sports injury, including degenerative osteoarthritis, intraoperative tissue, blood and saliva samples,To sample from the micro level of susceptibility genes and molecular signaling pathways to anatomical morphology and histopathologic study direction, and so on, can also for multiple transverse comparison research between samples, in order to investigate sports injury, including degenerative osteoarthritis pathogenesis, for sports trauma related disease etiology, diagnosis, treatment to provide new ideas and methods,And the selection of athletes, athletes special training plans, sports mode to provide more targeted suggestions.This study strictly complied with the Regulations of the People's Republic of China on the Management of Human Genetic Resources to establish the Institute of Sports Medicine Sample Bank, which can reduce the waste of human genetic resources in China, promote the development of the discipline, and provide a higher platform for the study of sports injure-related diseases.

The study is a prospective, non-randomized feasibility study to evaluate the safety and performance of providing support with the Aortix System to patients at heightened risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) undergoing cardiovascular surgery.

Trauma is the leading cause of death and disability in children in the United States. The objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits and harms of tranexamic acid (TXA; a drug that stops bleeding) in severely injured children with hemorrhagic brain and/or torso injuries. Using thromboelastography, we will measure baseline fibrinolysis to assess for treatment effects of TXA at different levels of fibrinolysis.

Children suffer proportionally more head injuries than any other age group and children with head injuries have the highest mortality of all children admitted with traumatic injuries. The investigators aim to investigate the factors that contribute to poor outcomes after paediatric acute brain injury by collecting observational and outcome data. Much of the brain damage that results in poor outcomes actually happens in the hours and days after the injury. This is due to several factors such as brain swelling and poor oxygen delivery to the brain. Treatment is directed to try and protect the brain against these factors. Current management of the head injured child focuses on monitoring pressure within the head. However, this does not detect all the factors that cause continuing brain damage. Special monitors that follow oxygen levels and chemical changes in the brain are used safely in adult patients but have not been widely employed in children despite their potential benefit. There is therefore the opportunity to evaluate extra monitoring of the child brain, and in doing so, help refine the management of these patients.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about changes in the brain of patients over the first 3 years following a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The main question it aims to answer are: - How TBI effect the rate of brain tissue loss compare to healthy brain Participants will give blood samples, complete MRI scans, and neuropsychological assessment measures. Researchers will compare results between healthy control group and TBI group to determine changes in injured brains.

This clinical study aims to investigate the impact of a topical hyaluronic acid (HA) gel on postoperative pain and wound healing at palatal donor sites in patients undergoing mucogingival procedures involving a de-epithelialized gingival graft (DGG) from the palate. The study design is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, clinical trial, conducted in a single center, with 30 subjects aged 18-70 years.

Building on recent improvements, state-of-the-art functional MRI will be applied as an advanced diagnostic tool for the lumbosacral cord in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients to characterize the remaining neuronal activity of the motor and sensory neurons. Alterations in the activity pattern will reveal the effect upon task-related spinal cord activity of the lower motor neurons and sensory neurons undergoing trauma-induced neurodegeneration, at a spatial specificity that has not been possible so far. Results of this study will be of crucial importance because SCI patients can only profit from regeneration-inducing therapies if spinal neuronal function is preserved below the level of lesion.

This study investigates the effect of daily mobile app reminders to exercise in conjunction with standard physical therapy on adherence to exercise and recovery after whiplash injury of the neck. Participants will be divided into two groups, the experimental (Arm A) and control group (Arm B). Both groups will complete a standard physical therapy program under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Both groups will get illustrated home exercise programs and will be advised to continue exercising at home. In addition, the experimental group will receive one daily push notification via a mobile app to perform a daily exercise at home.

The goal of this prospective observational study is to estimate the prevalence of brachial plexus injury after prone positioning in patients with ARDS and to evaluate the safety of swimmer position. The main questions it aims to answer are: Could arm positioning during pronation play a role in the development of any nerve injury at the brachial plexus level? Is swimmer position safe when adopted during prone positioning? Participants will be studied at selective time points using EMG assessment.

The study is a 2-week human study where 40 patients who are scheduled to undergo reconstructive knee surgery are randomized to administration of GH or placebo following or without neuromuscular electrical stimulation of hamstring muscles.The overall aim is to determine, the role of muscle connective tissue protein synthesis in muscle injury and repair.
