Ablation-Index Guided Scar-Mediated Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Over the last decade, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an established treatment for ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Due to the challenging nature of visualizing lesion formation in real time and ensuring an effective transmural lesion, different surrogate measures of lesion quality have been used. The Ablation Index (AI) is a …
Effect of Onion Extract Nanoparticle Gel Phonophoresis on Postsurgical Scar of Cesarean Section.
Cesarean section is one of the most common abdominal operations performed on women. The cesarean section rate is rising rapidly and continuously in many parts of the world. The cesarean-section surgery leaves a scar that requires special care. A horizontal skin incision approximately 10-15 cm long is usually performed during …
Targeted Optical Biopsy for Local Rectal Scars in Rectal Cancer Patients After Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
Currently, low concordance (36%) is found between clinical complete response and pathologic complete response in patients with rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Probe-based confocal laser endoscopy (pCLE) provides a promising targeted optical biopsy to evaluate the response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The aim of this study is to investigate whether pCLE-targeted …
Comparing How Burn Wounds and Scars Heal in Children Using Chitosan and Silver Dressings
Burns are among the most common types of trauma worldwide, ranking fourth after traffic accidents, falls, and violence, and account for an estimated 265,000 deaths annually (WHO). Most burn injuries result from heat exposure, though other causes include friction, chemicals, and electricity. Effective burn treatment aims to promote wound healing …
Comparing the Effect of siSPARC Microneedle Patch Versus siSPARC+siLR4A Microneedle Patch on Post-surgical Scars
This randomized, double-blind controlled study aims to compare the effect on appearance of post- surgical scars between daily application of siSPARC microneedle patch versus siSPARC + siLR4A microneedle patches. These patches comprising short microneedles embedded with hydrolysed RNA (siRNAs) have been classified by Health Science Authority, Singapore, as cosmetic products.
Changes in Regional and Global Cardiac Contractility After Stimulation in Scar Zone With the NOGA System
Despite a decrease in voltage amplitude in post-infarction scar areas, greater voltage amplitudes are sometimes observed at the time of local extrasystoles mechanically induced by catheters. However, no study has investigated whether these electrical changes are associated with mechanical changes in local contractility. However, the voltage is closely correlated to …
Comparative Study Between Botulinum Toxin-A Injection and Shock Waves on Hypertrophic Scars in Hand-burned Children
PURPOSE: The study aims to compare study between Botulinum toxin-A injection and shock waves therapy on hypertrophic scars in hand-burned children. BACKGROUND: Burn injuries can cause significant physical and psychological distress, especially when they result in hypertrophic scarring. In children, who are particularly vulnerable to these injuries, it is important …
Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CSB-001 Ophthalmic Solution 0.1% in Subjects With Corneal Scars
This study will enroll subjects with recently formed corneal scars that resulted from a corneal insult presenting and diagnosed within the past approximately 30 days and not less than approximately 7 days. All subjects will be assigned to CSB-001 investigational treatment on Day 1. All subjects will dose with CSB-001 …
Dermal Substitution in Pediatric Burns
The standard treatment of deep dermal to full thickness burns is surgical removal of the burn followed by skin transplantation. Dermal substitutes are increasingly used in the treatment of deep burns to replace lost dermis. Preservation of the collagen and elastin in the acellular human dermal substitute Glyaderm provides a …
Efficacy of the Adipose Graft Transposition Procedure (AGTP) in Patients With a Myocardial Scar: The AGTP II Trial
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a pericardial adipose graft transposition (Adipose Graft Trasposition Procedure, AGTP) for the improvement of cardiac function in patients with a chronic myocardial infarction. Preclinical studies in the porcine model of myocardial infarction have shown that the AGTP reduces infarct …
