Chest trauma is common in traumatology. Its management is based on ventilatory therapies, among which non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly used. Some studies have shown the benefit of this therapy in hypoxemic patients, avoiding intubation, reducing length of stay and healthcare costs, and even reducing mortality. However, these studies are …
According to the National Burn Repository 2007, the most common type of burn injury is a partial thickness burns. The current standard of care for partial thickness burns is two weeks of topical therapy and wound care. Burns that do not heal within two weeks undergo surgical excision and skin …
Muscle qualities are critical for the recovery after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Before ACL reconstruction (ALCR), resistance training aims to maintain patient strength and volume in order to optimize recovery. Unanswered questions remain on the modalities of resistance training before ACLR. This protocol details a pragmatic clinical trial …
Patients with memory and cognitive deficits following TBI that do not respond to conventional treatments experience a decrease in quality of life. Despite advances in neuroimaging, genetics, pharmacology and psychosocial interventions in the last half century, little progress has been made in altering the natural history of the condition or …
The goal of this study is to learn if Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is able to accelerate and improve muscle healing following an acute hamstring injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy accelerates the time needed to return to play/-duty following hamstring injury. Does Hyperbaric …
The purpose of this research is to determine the effects of food on brain and stomach activity in persons with and without spinal cord injury (SCI).
SpiCoH is a phase IIa, single center, open-label, clinical trial of intermittent normobaric hyperoxia in mechanically ventilated patients with traumatic cervical and/or thoracic spinal cord injury.
Pressure injuries, commonly known as pressure ulcers, affect over 2.5 million people in the United States. Pressure injuries are classified into four escalating stages, from intact skin to full thickness wounds with deep tissue loss and exposed bone. This study will compare current standard of care treatment (as recommended by …
The observational study focuses on comparing the interpretation of chest radiological examinations performed using a computer-based system with the standard interpretation conducted by a radiologist. The "LUNIT" system serves as a tool designed to assist radiologists in detecting the 10 most common abnormalities visible on chest radiographs, with proven efficacy …
The goal of this study is to determine whether a multimodal sleep pathway can enhance sleep quality in hospitalized patients with orthopedic trauma. It will also evaluate the effect of this pathway on opioid use and pain perception during recovery. The main study questions are: Does the multimodal sleep pathway …
