NCT01206621
For the patient with acute dyspnea in the ED, early differentiation between CHF and non-CHF causes is essential for proper management. The capacity to triage patients quickly and accurately has a beneficial impact upon outcome, disposition, stratification and length of stay in the ED and required length of hospital admission. The ability to assess pulmonary status rapidly by quantitative regional vibration technology offers significant potential advantage for earlier diagnosis. The VRI technique may provide a quick and accurate method of differentiating between dyspnea due to HF and dyspnea due to pulmonary causes; thereby improving management and outcomes.

The use of ACZONE™ for the treatment of rosacea is investigational. An investigational use is one that is not approved by the FDA. Subjects will apply the study treatment for 12 weeks. Efficacy assessments will be performed at baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12. Laboratory assessments will be conducted at baseline and Week, 2, 4 and 12.
NCT01309568
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the clinical performance of the Quidel Reader Influenza A+B test and Quidel Reader with the following sample types: nasal swab, nasopharyngeal swab, and nasopharyngeal aspirate/wash. Clinical performance will be based on comparison of Quidel Reader Influenza A+B results to cell culture at a Central Reference or Alternative Laboratory.
NCT00492284
The objective of this study is to determine if combination therapy (reduced-fluence Visudyne followed by Lucentis \[within 2 hours\] or either of two regimens of reduced-fluence Visudyne followed by Lucentis-Dexamethasone triple therapy \[within 2 hours\]) reduces retreatment rates compared with Lucentis monotherapy while maintaining similar vision outcomes and an acceptable safety profile.
NCT00171210
A 1-year randomized Phase III core trial (NCT00061750) using deferoxamine as the comparator was conducted to investigate the efficacy of deferasirox in regularly transfused patients with β-thalassemia 2 years of age and older. Patients who successfully completed this main trial may continue in this extension trial to receive chelation therapy with deferasirox for an additional 4 years. The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and long-term safety of deferasirox in regularly transfused patients with β-thalassemia 2 years of age and older.
NCT00311701
This retrospective study conducted in Canada and the US involves a chart review to assess the safety of oseltamivir (Tamiflu®) compared to alternate antiviral therapy, amantidine or rimantidine, administered to children less than 12 months of age with diagnosed or suspected influenza. The objectives are to describe the frequency of neurological and all other adverse events possibly related to administration of these antivirals in these infants. Investigators will also compare frequency of adverse events at various doses of oseltamivir in these children. Critical endpoints to be collected include frequency and severity of adverse events, particularly those relating to central nervous system complications. A sub-investigator will travel to each of the participating sites to collect data related to each infant's health prior to becoming ill, health status at time of influenza diagnosis, dosing regimen, reported neurological events post-dosing, and all reported adverse events post-dosing.
NCT00332059
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Bimatoprost/Timolol Fixed Combination in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension
NCT00614939
Saxagliptin is a new investigational medication being developed for treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study is designed to test the efficacy of once daily saxagliptin in renally impaired patients.
NCT00316004
The purpose of this study is to determine if hypertonic saline with and without dextran can improve neurologic outcomes in victims of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Injury and lost blood from trauma can cause your body to go into shock (low blood pressure related to blood loss). This decreased blood flow can lead to organ damage. In order to restore the blood pressure and blood flow, the medics give fluids into the patients' veins as soon as possible. This is called "resuscitation". The fluid most commonly used is "isotonic" or one that is the same salt concentration as the blood. The investigators are trying to determine if infusing a "hypertonic" fluid or one more concentrated than the blood can increase the blood pressure and restore blood flow more efficiently. The hypertonic fluids they are using are called hypertonic saline with dextran (HSD) and hypertonic saline (no dextran). Hypertonic saline is a salt solution that is slightly more concentrated than blood. Dextran is a sugar solution.
NCT01134159
Multicenter, retrospective registry to collect 9-12 month follow-up data to evaluate major adverse cardiac events in patients whom have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention and received either Taxus Liberte or Xience V.
NCT00281073
This is a sequential phase 1 and phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy of intracardiac echocardiography to detect septal and left atrial pathology as compared to transesophageal echocardiography (Phase 1) and its value in a management strategy for immediate cardioversion during cardiac catheterization procedures in patients with atrial fibrillation as compared to a conventional strategy delaying cardioversion till full anticoagulation is established for a three weeks (Phase 2). Phase 1 will enroll 100 patients at 12 centers; these patients will be undergoing clinically indicated TEE \& cardiac catheterization procedures. After review of Phase 1 results by an independent DSMB \& the investigators that establish efficacy of ICE, Phase 2 will be initiated. Phase 2 will enroll 300 patients in 15 centers; these patients with atrial fibrillation will be undergoing clinically indicated cardiac catheterization procedures and have a clinical indication for cardioversion. Patients will be randomized to ICE guided cardioversion strategy or a conventional strategy employing three weeks of full anticoagulation before cardioversion. ICE imaging will be used to identify a low risk group for immediate cardioversion. A composite primary study endpoint that will include mortality and major morbidity including stroke and bleeding complications will be used. This study will examines two hypotheses in AF patients undergoing invasive cardiac procedures: Hypothesis 1: That ICE has comparable efficacy to TEE in visualization of left atrial pathology or septal defects that can predispose patients to stroke. This will be evaluated during the Phase I component of the study. Hypothesis 2: That ICE can identify low risk patients in whom immediate cardioversion during the procedure is safe and comparably effective to electrical cardioversion performed based on a conventional strategy of a minimum of 3 weeks of preceding anticoagulation therapy. Low risk patients are expected to have an acceptably low incidence rate of stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), peripheral embolism, and major hemorrhagic events following electrical cardioversion. This will be evaluated during the Phase II component of the study, after the Phase I objective is achieved.
NCT01354054
TENS is a non pharmacological intervention to control pain. Both high (\>50 Hz) and low (\<10 Hz) frequency TENS are used in the clinic and it is thought that each type works through different mechanisms (see for review Sluka and Walsh, 2003). Hyperalgesia, an increased response to a noxious stimuli, is one component of pain and occurs both at the site of injury, primary hyperalgesia, and outside the site of injury, secondary hyperalgesia. Recent studies in animals with arthritis of the knee show that low and high frequency TENS differentially modulate primary and secondary hyperalgesia. Therefore the investigators hypothesize that TENS will reduce hyperalgesia and pain with movement resulting in increased function.
