Examining the Effects of Nasal High Flow Oxygen Therapy Compared to Non-invasive Ventilation in Health Volunteers
Respiratory failure is characterized by low levels of oxygen and high levels of carbon dioxide in the blood which causes difficulty breathing. The management of patients with respiratory failure aims at improving oxygenation, and decreasing the effort required to breathe. Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving treatment, but may be associated …
Molecular Characteristics of Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma (MOCHA): A Prospective Feasibility Study
Researchers are looking to further our knowledge on disease biology and treatment selection for gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. The purpose of this study is to see how useful it is to look for changes and characteristics in your genes (molecules that contain instructions for the development and functioning of the cells) and …
Intra-operative Evaluation of the External Ventricular Drain Catheter Position With Structured Light for Patients (Bullseye EVD)
The placement of external ventricular drainage (EVD) is a life-saving procedure used to relieve high pressures in the brain. Often performed at the bedside, a small tube (catheter) is inserted into one ventricle of the brain to drain cerebrospinal fluid and release the pressure build up. In standard practice, EVDs …
Database for Stroke in Infants and Children: the International Pediatric Stroke Study
The International Pediatric Stroke Study (IPSS) was established in 2003 as a multi-center, multi-national clinical research registry. Over the years, it has grown to become a highly successful study vehicle for pediatric stroke research across over 100 institutions worldwide. Today, The IPSS continues to serve as the global clinical data …
One-Time DNA Study for Vasculitis
The purpose of this study is to identify genes that increase the risk of developing vasculitis, a group of severe diseases that feature inflammation of blood vessels. Results of these studies will provide vasculitis researchers with insight into the causes of these diseases and generate new ideas for diagnostic tests …
Ontario-wide Cancer TArgeted Nucleic Acid Evaluation
Substantial progress has been made in the treatment of cancer through the use of targeted therapies, but what works for one patient might not work for another patient. Certain drugs are now being developed that target specific molecules in the body that are believed to be part of the disease. …
Product Surveillance Registry
The purpose of the Registry is to provide continuing evaluation and periodic reporting of safety and effectiveness of Medtronic market-released products. The Registry data is intended to benefit and support interests of patients, hospitals, clinicians, regulatory bodies, payers, and industry by streamlining the clinical surveillance process and facilitating leading edge …
Liver Transplantation in Patients With CirrHosis and Severe Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure: iNdications and outComEs
Management of ACLF is mainly supportive. The poor outcomes lead physicians to consider liver transplantation as an option, even if controversial. In sicker recipients, LT results in immediate survival, but poor medium-term survival rates in some studies. The scarcity of deceased donors obliges to maximize LT success. Alternative strategies, as …
Enroll -HD: A Prospective Registry Study in a Global Huntington's Disease Cohort
Enroll-HD is a longitudinal, observational, multinational study that integrates two former Huntington's disease (HD) registries-REGISTRY in Europe, and COHORT in North America and Australasia-while also expanding to include sites in Latin America. More than 30,000 participants have now enrolled into the study. With annual assessments and no end date, Enroll-HD …
Canadian Network for Autoimmune Liver Disease
CaNAL is a longitudinal observational cohort study of patients diagnosed with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC), Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH), or overlap syndrome. This study creates a nationwide registry and network focusing on high quality long-term follow-up of individual patient data from major Canadian centers. Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and Autoimmune Hepatitis …
