NCT02240420
The purpose of the STAR-MAMA intervention is to develop a patient-tailored telephone-base counseling intervention for young Latino women who are at high risk of diabetes. The intervention will focus at the end of pregnancy and the 9 months post-partum period to improve education and behavioral counseling on nutrition and other related health topics . The following hypotheses will be formally tested: Compared with controls at 9 months post-partum: 1. Women in the STAR-Moms program will have improved self-reported behavioral outcomes for minutes of physical activity, lower fat diet, and breast-feeding duration (in weeks); 2. Women in the STAR-Moms program will have improved diabetes prevention knowledge; 3. Women in the STAR-Moms program will have increased diabetes-relevant screening rates. Women in the STAR-MAMA will have lost more weight than women in the control group.
NCT02661386
1. An intact pharyngoesophageal reflex is essential to protect the upper airway from aspiration of either mouth contents or regurgitated gastric refluxate. This reflex is essential at protecting the airway in all patients. 2. In patients, while under general anesthesia, it is postulated that an identifiable upper esophageal sphincter and esophageal peristalsis are not present. 3. With the cessation of general anesthetics, accompanied by the reversal of nerve block, normal pharyngoesophageal peristaltic activity correlates with awakening the patient from anesthesia. This would be identified by the performance of esophageal manometry. 4. A return of normal verbally stimulated pharyngoesophageal swallowing sequence accurately identifies a safe time to remove endotracheal tubes and/or reverse anesthesia. This verbally stimulated swallowing sequence correlated precisely with the return of objective pharyngoesophageal function.
NCT00437281
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of pregabalin in pediatric patients with partial onset seizures that are incompletely controlled on their current medications.
NCT03972787
This project will to evaluate whether a proactive social robot (ElliQ) has an impact on reducing social isolation and loneliness in older adults who are living alone, while also promoting independence and aging in place. To achieve this, the following research questions will be investigated: 1. How does the use of ElliQ impact the following outcomes in older adults: * Loneliness and social isolation; * Accessibility to and use of technology; * Quality of life, mood, and overall well-being; and * Caregiver experience? 2. Do particular characteristics of the older adult population influence these impacts?
NCT02550938
To demonstrate that a primer aligner product can achieve similar results to the currently marketed product.
NCT01554371
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of eribulin (Halaven™) and cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan®) given together at different doses. This study will look at what effects, good and/or bad, that these drugs have on solid tumors. Eribulin is a drug that has been approved by the FDA for breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Cyclophosphamide has been approved for different types of cancers (including breast cancer). However, the combination of eribulin and cyclophosphamide is considered experimental; that means this combination has not been approved by the FDA. The funding for this study is provided by Eisai Inc., the maker of eribulin.
NCT01790113
A Prospective, Randomized, Multicenter Study comparing the Safety and Effectiveness of Arthrex's Eclipse™ Shoulder to the Univers™ II Shoulder Prosthesis in patients with a degenerative joint disease.
NCT02292537
The primary objective of this study is to examine the clinical efficacy of nusinersen (ISIS 396443) administered intrathecally to participants with later-onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). The secondary objective is to examine the safety and tolerability of nusinersen administered intrathecally to participants with later-onset SMA.
NCT02929979
The project will examine whether a computerized neuroscience-based cognitive training program can improve cognitive functioning and recovery outcomes among Veterans with Alcohol Use Disorder and co-occurring PTSD. Information from this study will help determine the malleability of cognitive dysfunction, an established risk factor for poor recovery outcomes in this population. Improved functional outcomes can decrease risk of chronic impairment and ultimately help affected individuals live richer, more productive lives. Web-based treatment technologies may increase the reach and impact of treatment, and foster patient recovery in cases where staffing, space, acceptability of counseling, and transportation are barriers. Findings may also support expanding use of existing, highly-accessible cognitive remediation technologies to other vulnerable clinical populations.
NCT01297959
This study is intended to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of topical application of E-101 Solution directly into the surgical incisional wound in the prevention of infection of superficial and deep surgical incisional wounds. E-101 Solution is an enzyme-based antiseptic that is being developed for direct application to a surgical incision.
NCT03269331
The Institute of Medicine's (IOM) ambitious goal for at least 90% of clinical decisions to be evidence-based includes nursing interventions and practice. Models and frameworks have been developed to meet the demand for practice transformation. While magnet facilities require a commitment to evidence-based nursing practice, military facilities currently lack such a requirement but are instituting evidence-based practice (EBP) initiatives in a purposeful path toward developing high-reliability organizations. Currently, little is known regarding the effectiveness of specific EBP models and frameworks within the military culture. The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effectiveness of the Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through Close Collaboration (ARCC) model in an Air Force Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) beginning with nursing services. Research questions: 1. What is the current state of organizational culture and readiness for EBP within the MTF's nursing services? 2. Will utilization of the ARCC model significantly improve EBP beliefs, knowledge, and practice in MTF nurses over a two-year period? 3. Is the ARCC model feasible for implementation in Air Force MTF's? This study includes an intervention group (n=70) of active duty nurses and technicians who attend an intensive 5-day EBP Immersion Workshop and a control group (n=70) who do not. The intervention group will have access to specialized resources such as: a) Center for Transdisciplinary Evidence-Based Practice (CTEP) expert EBP mentors, b) EBP toolkit and resources, c) one year of free access to the Ohio State University (OSU) virtual library. Control group participants will have standard MTF education opportunities. Established valid and reliable survey measures (EBP attitudes, knowledge, beliefs) will be hosted electronically by CTEP at baseline, three, and twelve months. Online measures include institutional and nursing process measures (EBP implementation, policy changes, and publications) over the two-year study period. De-identified data from the anonymous survey measures will be shared by CTEP with this study team. Data analysis will include Student's t-tests to explore differences between groups. Repeated measures ANOVA or the nonparametric equivalent (Friedman's test or Skillings-Mack test) will be used to compare three time points within groups. Feasibility metrics and demographics will be reported with descriptive statistics.
NCT03407313
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of rotational fractional resection (RFR) to improve neck contouring. RFR is used to remove loose skin and fat.
NCT00159653
NCT02460991
This is a prospective, multicenter study that will be conducted at up to 40 centers in the United States and Outside United States (OUS). Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either ONCO-DOX or sorafenib treatment. This study will evaluate the study participants' outcomes (medical condition) after being treated with ONCO-DOX and compare it to those treated with sorafenib alone.
NCT00863772
Tanezumab reduces pain of osteoarthritis without affecting how nerve impulses are transmitted in sensory nerves.
NCT00442845
Physicians tend to always use the lowest dose of statins to initiate therapy even in subjects who require large reductions in cholesterol. The study evaluates if selecting the starting dose based on baseline and target LDL-C cholesterol would provide better results (ie proportion of subjects resching target)
