Partial Neuromuscular Blockade in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
PNEUMA is a preliminary safety and feasibility trial of a novel approach to the titration of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) to safe spontaneous breathing in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) supported with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).
Maitake for Integrative Cancer Care
Maitake is an edible mushroom that is used for both its nutritional and medicinal properties. Human and animal studies have shown Maitake may help improve immune function; however, its effectiveness in people with cancer is not clear. The investigators aim to measure if Maitake has any immunomodulatory effects when given …
Accelerated Bilateral Sequential Theta Burst Stimulation in Older Adults With Treatment-resistant Depression
The CogniTReaD study is a pilot clinical trial that will compare the effects of active accelerated bilateral sequential theta burst stimulation (absTBS) and sham or inactive treatment. The goal is to see if absTBS can help older adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) by looking at dual-task cost and mood, as …
Reducing Opioid Use for Chronic Pain Patients Following Surgery
Patients with chronic pain are often prescribed long-term opioid therapy, despite the serious risks and growing concerns related to opioid use. The Toronto General Hospital has created the world's first multidisciplinary perioperative Transitional Pain Service Program (TPSP) aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of chronic post-surgical pain. The TPSP …
Femoral Bone Metastases
Bone is a common site of metastasis for a range of malignancies. Bone metastases have the potential to cause significant morbidity including pain, impairment of ambulation and reduced functional independence. Previous research has shown that pathological fractures are observed in 9 to 29 percent of patients with long bone metastases, …
SBRT vs. Conventional Fractionation With HDR Boost for Prostate Cancer
Random assignment between SBRT and conventionally fractionated boost following HDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer.
Laplace Early Feasibility Study - Canada
The objective of the study is to assess the safety and technical feasibility of the Laplace Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) System
MRI Guided Closed-loop TMS-EEG
The goal of this interventional study is to develop an individualized approach using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in a high-precision manner. This approach will use TMS to modulate brain activity at multiple locations simultaneously. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalograph (EEG) will record the responses and guide the stimulation. …
Effect of Extracellular Calcium on Carbetocin Mediated Contractility in Human Myometrium
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) continues to be an increasing problem globally. Uterotonics play an essential role in the pharmacological management of uterine atony. Carbetocin, a long acting analog of oxytocin has been recommended as a first line uterotonic for PPH prophylaxis at cesarean delivery. Considering many woman have associated comorbidities and …
MRI-Guided Ultrasound Stimulated Microbubbles Radiation Treatment for Patients with Chest-Wall and Locally Advanced Breast Cancer
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided ultrasound stimulated microbubble treatment to enhance radiation effects in humans receiving external beam radiotherapy delivered using a LINAC (linear accelerator) radiation therapy device.
