NCT00558012
This trial will examine the safety, efficacy and feasibility of a single dose of intravenous zoledronic acid in the maintenance of skeletal integrity for frail, institutionalized women, who are most at risk for the deleterious outcomes of osteoporosis. The investigators will test the hypothesis that in institutionalized elderly women a single dose of intravenous zoledronic acid therapy will: (1) be efficacious as demonstrated by stability or improvement in bone mass measurements and reductions in bone turnover; (2) be safe and feasible; and (3) provide estimates for vertebral and nonvertebral fracture reduction in this cohort for use in planning a future study.
NCT01378988
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and safety of dexmedetomidine at 2 different dose levels in pediatric subjects, aged 12 months through \<24 months, administered as an intravenous loading dose followed by continuous infusion for a minimum of 6 hours and up to 24 hours in an intensive care setting.
NCT00206908
This project is designed to evaluate the clinical utility of a novel blood test, the Triage Stroke Panel, as an aid in the diagnosis and assessment of stroke. The Triage Stroke Panel test device, used with the Triage MeterPlus, is a rapid, point-of-care immunoassay. The test measures the concentration of various analytes present in EDTA-anticoagulated whole blood or plasma, specifically B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), fibrin degradation products containing D-Dimer, matrix metalloproteiase-9 (MMP-9), and S-100B. The test utilizes a proprietary algorithm for the automatic calculation of a single Multimarker Index (MMX) result from the individual biomarker values. The MMX result is being evaluated for use as an aid in the assessment and diagnosis of stroke.
