NCT06325982
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug retention enema for the prevention of acute radiation rectal injury in the real world.
NCT03660618
The purpose of this project is to quantify normal and abnormal skin blood flow regionally in different areas of the body(face, extremities, over burns and wounds) at baseline and over time in response to treatment or environmental changes, such as temperature, light and pressure.
NCT04059809
A prospective single blind controlled randomized trial to evaluate the superiority of photobiomodulation (PBM) using LED-therapy in reducing the prevalence of radiodermatitis in breast cancer compared to usual local care.
NCT04818099
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of vortioxetine, once daily (QD), on mood disorders and cognitive dysfunction in patients with head and neck cancers undergoing radiotherapy.
NCT03667859
Female patients with either uterine/cervical malignancies will be evaluated for vaginal elasticity using vaginal tactile imaging both before and after radiation treatment.
NCT03961217
The investigators plan to investigate the consequences of late effects (radiation-induced survivorship syndromes) after radiotherapy in Gynecological and Prostate cancer survivors on return to work (Yes/No) and if RTW happened then time to RTW. In addition, whether general health, type of work (occupation), work environment factors, individual factors (lifestyle, socioeconomic status etc.), contribute to the adverse late effects of radiotherapy and these Gynecological cancer survivors have a higher risk for disability pension/long term sickness absence (NOT Return to work).
NCT02985164
Radiation now becomes a dreadful effect as its outcomes are tremendous to be expected. As a result, anesthetists become an inevitable target to the radiation exposure since they have to monitor patients closely during the operation. Unfortunately, radiation may not have an immediate sequelae, but an accumulation of adverse effects. These sequelae happen by means of direct exposure and reflection. The reflected rays is inversely proportional to the distance between the origin and the target. Practically, the radiation source can be protected by individual cover and glass shield. Siriraj hospital is a tertiary, general university hospital with 2,200 beds. Annually, an Endoscopy centre has over 700 patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangio pancreaticography (ERCP). Normally, fluoroscopy for pancreatic and biliary ducts visualisation is needed under anesthesia. Though the procedure is operated in a well-equipped, radiating-protection room; many medical personnel including 1-2 endoscopists, 2 scrub nurses, 1-2 anesthetists and 1 x-ray man, still have a chance of irradiation. During ERCP, all medical personnel particularly anesthetists are rinsed by radiation from here and there. Though they always wear lead aprons and collar shields to protect themselves from the rays, they are normally in the position - less than 1 meter - close to the fluoroscopy. Due to the advancement in technology, anesthetists can remotely monitor patients during the surgical procedure. This might cause a lesser effect of ray upon them. As a result, whether or not the positioning of anesthesia personnel relating to the distance of x-ray source would help to alleviate the effect of radiation exposure.
NCT00725244
Aim: To compare the efficacy, safety and number of sessions of bipolar eletrocoagulation (BEC) and argon plasma coagulation (APC) in the management of the bleeding telangiectasias from chronic radiation coloproctopathy (CRCP). Methods: Thirty patients with active bleeding from telangiectasias were enrolled in two groups (15 BEC and 15 APC) and classified according of Saunders score. BEC settings were 50 W and APC settings were 40 W and 1.0 l/min. Colonoscopy was the first exam to rule out synchronous lesions and follow-up was performed with sigmoidoscopies. Clinical cure was defined as cessation of bleeding and endoscopic cure was determined by absence of telangiectasias. Failure was defined whenever more than 7 sessions or other therapy was necessary.
