The clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the minimally invasive, wireless brain-machine interface system (WRS) in enabling general brain control of external devices, such as a cursor and other assistive technologies, for paralyzed and amputee patients. WRS integrates a high-throughput, ultra-flexible neural electrode with an extremely …
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 …
Individuals with spinal cord injury have heart attacks and strokes more frequently, and much earlier in life. People with spinal cord injuries develop plaque in vessels much faster, and the reasons why are unclear. Doctors generally attributed the increased risk with weight gain and developing diabetes, but many studies have …
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 …
Brief Summary This observational study will follow patients who undergo DIEP flap breast reconstruction to better understand a common surgical challenge called ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. I/R injury can happen when a flap has a period without blood flow (ischemia) and then blood flow returns (reperfusion). This process may trigger inflammation …
The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness, safety, and health-care utilization and costs of a preoperative Staphylococcus aureus (SA) screening and decolonization bundle, (5 days of nasal mupirocin ointment, chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) body wash, and CHG mouth rinse), in eradicating SA carriage compared to other SA decolonization …
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 …
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 …
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 …
To study the ability of RRI, measured by bedside Doppler ultrasound, in detecting acute kidney injury in high-risk patients admitted to surgical intensive care unit, Aswan university hospital, compared with renal biomarkers and conventional assessment using urine output and serum creatinine levels.
