Laparotomy Versus Percutaneous Endoscopic Correction of Myelomeningocele
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a fetoscopic surgical technique for antenatal correction of fetal myelomeningocele. Two surgical approaches will be utilized. The percutaneous approach will be offered to participants with a posterior placenta. The laparotomy/uterine exteriorization approach will be offered to participants regardless of …
Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Intra-wound Vancomycin Powder in High Risk Patients
Surgical site infections (SSI) are not uncommon, especially in specific high-risk groups including spinal deformity and tumor (i.e. metastatic spine surgery) surgery. Well-recognized measures have been adopted to reduce surgical site infection, and the use of topical vancomycin powder has gained popularity in recent years. Given the lack of high-quality …
Remote Cardiovascular Monitoring in Post-TAVI Patients
The goal of this randomised clinical trial is to utilise a remote monitoring algorithm to gather essential clinical data, aiming to guide the management of post-Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) patients and reduce both postprocedural hospital length of stay and readmissions. This strategic integration of technology aims to address gaps …
Clinical Evaluation and Cost-effectiveness Analysis of 3D Digital Surgery in Traumatology
Digital surgery, in combination with patient specific instrumentation (PSI) is being used more and more in traumatology due to its proven benefits and applications. Nowadays, medical case planning and an optimal preparation before surgery are still a challenge for surgeons. This lack of preparation is translated into longer surgical procedures, …
A Treatment for a Form of Age-Related Central Auditory Processing Disorder Consisting of Clemastine Fumarate Plus Engineered Sound
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of Clemastine Fumarate in the presence of engineered sound to treat age-related central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). This disorder impacts 800M patients worldwide, including \~1/3 people over 40 years of age and \~1/2 people over 65, resulting in an …
Comparison of Imaging Quality Between Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography (SPCCT) and Dual Energy Computed Tomography (DECT)
This pilot study wants to determine to which extent SPCCT allows obtaining images with improved quality and diagnostic confidence when compared to standard Dual Energy CT (DECT), both with and without contrast agent injection. Depending on the anatomical structures/organs to be visualized during CT examinations, different scanning protocols are performed …
Post-market Surveillance Study of the BD® WavelinQ™ EndoAVF System
A prospective, single-arm, multi-center post-market surveillance study of the BD® WavelinQ™ EndoAVF System for the Creation of Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula in Patients Requiring Dialysis.
Pivotal Study of the Velocity™ pAVF System
This study will evaluate the Velocity Percutaneous Arteriovenous Fistula (pAVF) System, a new minimally invasive method for creating dialysis access. People with kidney failure often require dialysis, which depends on having a reliable arteriovenous fistula (AVF). Traditionally, AVFs are created with surgery, but surgery can involve incisions, longer recovery, and …
SAVE-FistulaS: the SelfWrap-Assisted ArterioVEnous Fistulas Study
This is a prospective, randomized, multi-center clinical trial for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of SelfWrap, a bioabsorbable perivascular wrap.
The Diagnostic Observatory: Combating Diagnostic Wandering and Impasse Within the AnDDI-Rares Network
The Direction Générale de l'Organisation des Soins (DGOS) and the Banque Nationale de Données Maladies Rares (BNDMR) have launched a call for a letter of commitment for the implementation of a diagnostic observatory in order to fight against diagnostic wandering and impasse. In this context, the AnDDI-Rares network proposes 3 …
