Comparison of Speech Understanding Between Tonotopy-based Fitting and Setting Based on Evolutionary Algorithms
Main objective: Compare speech recognition in noise with tonotopic setting (FS4T) and with tonotopic fitting modified by evolutionary algorithm (EAFS4T) in adult patients implanted for 6 months or more with a MED-EL cochlear implant with FS4T. Secondary objectives: Comparison of FS4T and EAFS4T settings for speech recognition in quiet for …
LoW Dose-Intensity vs. Standard Dose-Intensity COntinuous Renal ReplaceMent Therapy in Critically Ill Patients (WISDOM)
An estimated 10-15% of critically ill patients with acute kidney failure in the intensive care unit receive acute dialysis therapy. The majority of these patients initially receive a continuous form of dialysis therapy call continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Prior studies have suggested that higher CRRT dose-intensity improved health outcomes …
Non-pharmacologial, Non-invassive Intervention Before Cardiac Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Perioperative neurological complications in cardiovascular surgical procedures are associated with a significant risk of mortality and disability. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ischemic preconditioning and transcranial electrical stimulation to reduce perioperative neurological complications. It will also learn about the safety of remote ischemic preconditioning and …
Effects of High Intensity Interval Training in Down Syndrome
Down Syndrome (DS), a genetic condition marked by the presence of an extra chromosome 21, is associated with various cognitive and physical challenges. Children with DS often experience motor development issues, including reduced endurance and decreased trunk stability, which underscores the need for targeted interventions. Common impairments in individuals with …
Effect of Remote Local Peripheral Nerve Cooling on Pain of Arterial Puncture
In this project, volunteers will be recruited to cool the superficial skin of the axillary brachial plexus away from the puncture point, resulting in local peripheral nerve cooling, and observe its impact on the pain of arterial puncture.To explore the local peripheral nerve cooling treatment can produce controllable and reversible …
The Modified "Pills-in-the-Pocket" Strategy
This is a multicentre, prospective, randomised controlled study of 328 patients with non-paroxysmal AF (within 5 years of first diagnosis of AF) with recurrent atrial arrhythmias after first catheter ablation, randomly divided in a 1:1 ratio into a study group treated with triple AADs (amiodarone + bisoprolol + digoxin) and …
Application of Al18F-NOTA-Pentixafor PET/CT for Primary Aldosteronism
This prospective, single-center study investigates the biodistribution, dosimetry, safety, diagnostic performance of Al18F-NOTA-Pentixafor PET imaging in patients with primary aldosteronism. And evaluates the potential of Al18F-NOTA-Pentixafor PET imaging in surgical strategy guidance.
Speech Understanding and Listening Effort Benefits of Hearing Instruments
The goal of this clinical study is to investigate the benefits of hearing instrument use in adults with hearing loss. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does hearing instrument use improve speech understanding and listening effort amount people with hearing loss? Researchers will compare varying models of hearing …
New Strategies to Enhance Smoking Cessation
The study goal is to get feedback on ways researchers can communicate complex research findings on smoking cessation to better inform patients' decisions to use medication and/or quit smoking. This will help researchers and clinicians to provide effective, easy-to-implement treatments designed to address tobacco-related health disparities in Black and other …
Cemiplimab and Fianlimab Before Surgery for the Treatment of Stage IB-IIIB Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This phase II trial tests how well a fixed dose combination (FDC) of cemiplimab and fianlimab before surgery (neoadjuvant) works in treating patients with stage IB-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The current standard of care (SOC) for NSCLC is to give chemotherapy and immunotherapy before going to surgery to …
