The HIV epidemic represents one of the greatest health challenges worldwide, with important social and economic implications for public health. Although combination antiretroviral therapy (TAR) is effective in controlling infection and delaying disease onset, as well as improving the quality of life of infected persons, the relevant medical needs caused …
Novel Medical Device for Pharmacological Therapy
Background: Different co-creation methods were used to design and prototype a new fixative device for multiple intravenous therapies with the ability to control and identify the pharmacological therapy administered to a patient. Objectives: To validate a newly created device for the reduction of complications related to the use of intravenous …
Optimised Decrement Evoked Potential (DeEP) Mapping to Guide Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) Ablation in Patients With Structural Heart Disease VT
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a life-threatening heart rhythm disorder. Special pacemakers called implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) help treat VT episodes, however they do not prevent the VT episodes from occurring. Catheter ablation for VT is a minimally-invasive and established procedure for preventing VT recurrence. This involves placing wires in the …
Comparison of Core Stabilization and Neuromuscular Facilitation Exercises for Lowback Pain Prevention
Low back pain (LBP) is a leading cause of disability worldwide, particularly affecting individuals in occupations that demand prolonged sitting or standing, such as healthcare professionals. The nature of their work often involves sustained postures, physical exertion, and repetitive movements, which compromise core muscle function and neuromuscular control, increasing the …
Evaluating the Efficacy of Topical Insulin for the Restoration of Ocular Surface Interface in Dry Eye Disease.
This is a parallel randomized controlled trial for the treatment of dry eye disease. The main objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the use of insulin eye drops in the control of moderate-severe dry eye disease. Topical insulin drops will be compared to artificial tears in improving …
Telemedicine Follow-Up for Early Laryngeal Cancer: a Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Care Close to Home Versus Standard of Care
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Telemedicine follow-up is a satisfactory and safe alternative to traditional follow-up care for patients treated for early glottic (vocal cord) cancer, particularly those who live far from a specialized head and neck oncology centre (HNOC). The main questions it aims …
Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
A double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial to further investigate glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB), a direct acting antiviral (DAA) that has been associated with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom improvement when prescribed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C viral infection (HCV).
COmparison of Clarus and Optos Ultrawide Field Imaging Systems for Inherited Retinal Disease
The goal of this research study is to compare two ultrawide field cameras to the gold standard imaging system to evaluate the back of the eye. The main question it aims to answer is the same results and information can be acquired from all of the cameras for evaluating and …
Building Evidence for Ablative Internal Radiation Therapy in Localized HCC Beyond the Up-To-7 Criteria
At four major centers in Korea, patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that exceed the up-to-7 criteria yet remain locally confined will undergo ablative radioembolization using Yttrium-90 glass microspheres, guided by a standardized dosimetry method. Their treatment response, survival outcomes, and adverse events will be monitored for two years following the …
Topical Treatment for Atopic Dermatitis
Medication adherence is a poorly studied phenomenon that challenges both patients and physicians. 50% of individuals with chronic disease are not adherent to their medication regimen. Within the United States, non-adherence to medical treatment leads to approximately $100 billion in hospital admission costs. While the issue of adherence is not …
