NCT00583648
The implementation of nursing urinanlysis protocols based off of symptoms of urinary infections will significantly decrease the length of a patient's stay in the Emergency Department.
NCT01202110
The primary objective of this study is to determine in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) the safe dosing of propranolol. Safety will be measured by episodes of bradycardia (heart rate \< 60 beats per minute), hypotension (defined as systolic blood pressure \< 90) or decreased cerebral perfusion pressure (defined as CPP less than 60mmHg) that are refractive to Brain Trauma Foundation guidelines for treatment. A no-treatment arm will establish the number of episodes of bradycardia, hypotension and reduced cerebral pressure refractory to treatment that occur without propranolol.
NCT01521728
The first questions asked by patients with a new diagnosis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) often include: "Does exercise help slow the progression of the disease?", "Is there any harm in exercising?", or "What type of exercise (endurance or resistance) is most appropriate?" At this time, however, there is a lack of answers for people who suffer from an illness that affects their strength above all else. Yet the beneficial effects of exercise in both healthy people as well as people with other diseases have been extensively studied and resulted in recommendations about the types of exercise that are beneficial. In this study the investigators will ask participants with ALS to exercise in one of three ways: weightlifting (resistance exercise), stationary bicycling (endurance exercise), and range of motion exercise (the current "standard of care" for ALS patients). The investigators will use several different types of tests to determine whether one type of exercise is tolerated better and is safer than another. The investigators will also collect information about how the body responds to exercise in ALS. This study will help in the development of a larger national study to understand how exercise can be combined with other treatments to potentially improve strength and alter the course of the disease.
