Delayed Cold-Stored Platelets -PLTS-1
PLTS-1 is a multicentre, randomized, controlled, pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 2 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT to determine the non-inferiority of cold-stored platelets compared to conventional platelets with respect to hemostatic …
Reducing Chronic Breathlessness in Adults by Following a Self-guided, Internet Based Supportive Intervention (SELF-BREATHE)
Background Some health conditions make breathing difficult and uncomfortable. When this happens every day, it is called chronic breathlessness. Over 3 million people living with heart and lung disease have chronic breathlessness in the UK. Breathlessness is very difficult for patients themselves and their families, resulting in disability and feelings …
The Cold Ischemia Robot-assisted Partial Nephrectomy
To establish evidence that cold ischemia, achieved through the use of ice slush, can improve the recovery from ischemia on the operated kidney in patients undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.
Community Exercise Treating Effect on Cardiopulmonary Disease Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if community-based exercise training can benefit patients aged 18 to 85 with diminished cardiovascular and pulmonary function. The main aim of this study is: • Establish a community or home-based fitness training program for patients with cardiopulmonary insufficiency to improve adherence, …
Effect of HIgh-flow Therapy in Long-term Oxygen Therapy
This is a registry-based, randomized, controlled clinical trial of the effect of added high-flow oxygen therapy (using the device Lumis HFT) during one year in people with long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD).
Cold and Compression After Rotator Cuff Repair (RCR)
The purpose of this study is to compare pain score (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System: PROMIS NRS Pain Subscale) between the control and cold/compression groups pre-surgically, daily after surgery for 14 days, then weekly after surgery for 3 months, and at 6 months post-surgery.
Cold-induced Brown Fat Activation and Hepatic Steatosis
In the recent years, research on brown adipose tissue (BAT) revealed that larger amounts as well as higher activity thereof are associated with a favourable metabolic phenotype. Longitudinal studies which applied recurrent cooling sessions demonstrated a high plasticity of BAT which significantly increased in size and activity during these studies. …
Intermittent Cold Exposure and Brown Adipose Tissue Hyperplasia
This clinical trial explores how repeated short-term cold exposure impacts the molecular and physiological function of brown adipose tissue (BAT), a thermogenic organ associated with improved cardiometabolic health. While intermittent cold exposure has been shown to increase BAT activity and mass, as measured by fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake on positron emission …
Cold Vs Warm Water Immersion for DOMS Recovery
The study investigates the effectiveness of physical strategies in addressing Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) in physically active individuals. DOMS, a common phenomenon following intense or novel physical activity, is characterized by pain, inflammation, and functional impairments such as reduced range of motion, muscle strength, and endurance. These symptoms peak …
The Effect of Cold Therapy on Peripheral Neuropathy
This study examines the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of cold therapy on vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) in pediatric patients with cancer. Vincristine (VCR) is one of the most used vinca alkaloid chemotherapy in pediatric oncology patients. It leads to symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, numbness in the hands and feet, tingling, …
