Dosing rTMS for Depression Post-SCI
Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide and is more commonly seen in individual's post-spinal cord injury (SCI) than in the general population. Depression post-SCI impacts an individuals' quality of life and recovery. It has been reported that among Veterans with an SCI, those without depression live longer than …
Interest of a Musical Intervention on Stress Induced During Botulinum Toxin Injections in Spasticity (MUSIBOT)
Botulinum toxin (BT) injections are a painful treatment frequently used to treat spasticity following central neurological damage (stroke, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, head trauma). Tolerance of injections varies from patient to patient. For most patients, the pain experienced during the injection is a major source of stress. Numerous clinical …
Surgical Handwashing: Drying With One or Two Surgical Towels
This study aims to determine whether the use of two sterile towels for drying after surgical handwashing results in fewer contamination events compared to the use of only one towel among healthcare personnel. This randomized, multicenter, superiority-controlled trial will enroll up to 72 healthcare workers and surgical residents from three …
Harnessing Neuroplasticity to Enhance Functional Recovery During Chronic Recovery From Upper Extremity Nerve Repair
This study adopts a strategy that has arisen from basic neuroscience research on facilitating adaptive brain plasticity and applies this to rehabilitation to improve functional recovery in peripheral nervous system injuries (including hand transplantation, hand replantation, and surgically repaired upper extremity nerve injuries). The technique involves combining behavioral training with …
Early Deresuscitation Strategy Driven by Tissue Perfusion in Renal Replacement Therapy in Patients With Acute Renal Failure
In Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT) often present a fluid overload which is associated with morbidity (mechanical ventilation duration increase, kidney recovery decrease) and mortality. Patients' prognostic could be improved by correcting the fluid overload with net ultrafiltration …
Effects of Variation of Sodium Dialysate in ICU
Intermittent hemodialysis/diafiltration is a current renal replacement therapy (RRT) institued for ICU patients with AKI. For a better clinical tolerance, iinternational guidelines advise to use cold dialysate, increase duration session, decrease blood and dialysate flows, and increase level of sodium dialysate concentration (≥ 145mmol/l). Indeed, the use of a Na …
Methylene Blue for the Prevention of Hypotension During Hemodialysis
Hypotension is a common complication of intermittent renal replacement therapy. Methylene blue, an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, has been suggested to improve hemodynamics during renal replacement therapy in ambulatory patients, but evidence is lacking for critically ill patients. This trial will assess whether methylene blue can improve hemodynamics and …
Standard Dose Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) Versus Low-Dose CRRT ( KETZEREI )
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-recognized complication in critically ill patients, which often leads to the necessity of mechanical kidney support (CRRT). In current therapeutic regimes, CRRT is used to strictly prevent azotaemia. Thus recent clinical observations, as well as data from animal testing suggest a link between controlled …
Comparison of Two Different External Clearance Markers - Mannitol and Iohexol for Measuring Glomerular Filtration Rate
GFR is the best parameter of the real kidney function. Measurements, however are time-consuming and have limited capacity. Patients treated in the intensive care units often have more than one organ-insufficiency and acute kidney injury (AKI) has an incidence of up to 70 %. GFR changes dynamically and this is …
Influence of Human Albumin Supplementation on Kidney Dysfunction After Liver Transplantation
To verify whether albumin administration to achieve serum concentration above 30g/L (treated group) and its maintenance within plasmatic physiologic range (above 30 g/L) for five days diminishes rate of AKI at Day 7 after liver transplantation as compared to restrained albumin administration (when serum concentration is at 20 g/L or …
