Predictive Value of Carotid Ultrasonography for Intradialytic Hypotension
This multicenter, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the predictive value of carotid corrected flow time (FTc) and peak flow velocity variability (PFVV) for hypotension during maintenance hemodialysis. Conducted at The First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College, Wuhu City Second People's Hospital, Wuhu Hospital of Chinese Traditional Medicine, Wuhu …
Performance of a Fast-track Pathway for Giant Cell Arteritis Diagnosis
Giant cell arteritis is a vasculitis, i.e. inflammation of the artery walls, which generally affects people over the age of 50. Diagnosis can be long and difficult, as the clinical signs are not specific (headache, pain in the jaw, scalp, shoulders and/or pelvis, abdominal pain, weight loss, etc.), but it …
Tapping Test and the Archimedean Spiral for the Differential Diagnosis of Tremor. Machine Learning Approach
In clinical practice, it is sometimes difficult to establish whether a patient's tremor is due to Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. The distinction is crucial as the health implications differ significantly between the two conditions. Therefore, the present study aims to develop a diagnostic method based on machine learning techniques …
Psychiatric Disorders in Addiction - Interest of Screening and Influence on Relapse
In complex detoxification hospital units, patients receive a common care system (interviews, therapeutic workshops, support for discharges, etc.). In the event of a relapse during hospitalization, i.e., a relapse into addiction, hospital care is called into question, and discharge is generally considered. A key care issue is therefore to prevent …
Early Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer Duodenal Fluid-Based Biomarker Exploratory Study
Purpose Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cancer-related mortality disease in the United States, with a five-year survival rate of 11%, and only 10 15% of all pancreatic cancer patients are operable or borderline operable. Therefore, there is an unmet need for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer; however, biomarkers related …
Echocardiography Guided TAVR (Echo TAVR)
Conventional transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) relies on fluoroscopic and contrast agents. However, in high-risk patients, exposure to ionizing radiation and contrast agents is contraindicated and undesirable. Echocardiography guidance TAVR can offer a feasible and safer strategy for TAVR.
Study of ICG Fluorescence Imaging in Open Fracture and Infection Patients
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging system (cBPI) can be used to provide surgeons with information about bone health or bone blood flow. This will help surgeons better understand the healing potential of bone and relative risk of complication. This is …
Aut-CARE Intervention to Improve Cognitive and Emotional Functioning in Young Adults on the Autism Spectrum
Currently, many autistic youths struggle to adapt to academic programs or the workforce, often turning to third-sector organizations such as specialized associations and foundations. This may be due to factors such as emotional dysregulation and executive dysfunction, which interfere with their psychosocial adaptation abilities, leading to anxiety and depression. These …
Real-world Study on the Effectiveness and Safety of Control-IQ Technology in Teenagers With Type 1 Diabetes Engaging in Regular Physical Activity
We hypothesize that the use of the Control-IQ system positively influences glycemic control in teenagers with type 1 diabetes during physical activity. To test this hypothesis, we will evaluate the glucose profiles (based on CGM metrics) of adolescents engaging in different types, intensities, and durations of physical activity over a …
Physical Therapist Inter-Rater Reliability in Neuro-Muscle Ultrasound in Critically Ill Patients
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the feasibility and inter-rater reliability of muscle and peripheral nerve ultrasound for the early detection of ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) in critically ill patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can ICU physical therapists consistently measure muscle and nerve ultrasound …
