The purpose of the proposed study is to test these hypotheses through the following aims: 1. To determine if early plasmin activation following severe injury correlates with SIRS, TIC and complications throughout convalescence in both trauma and surgical patients. 2. To determin…

This single-arm, prospective, observational multicenter study will collect clinical data in a post-market setting across two different specialties in Robotic surgical procedures: Bariatric Sleeve gastrectomy (Staple line reinforcement) and Hysterectomy (Vaginal cuff closure). Inv…

Randomized clinical trial with individuals being allocated to experimental (Cogito Companion) or Active Control arms. Those in the latter will receive information regarding widely available mobile self-help apps via a custom mobile app built in MyCAP. This same platform will be u…

This study evaluates the effect of an oral typhoid vaccine on disruption of the intestinal barrier and response of the immune system. Intestinal and whole-body responses will be measured in all participants before and after the vaccine.

This study compares a volume targeted pressure support non-invasive ventilation with an automatic PEP regulation (AVAPS-AE mode) to a pressure support non-invasive ventilation (S/T mode) in patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure with acidosis. This study focuses on p…

The primary objective is to establish the mean superior cup migration of the Pinnacle Acetabular Shell using model-based RSA over the first two years post-implantation. The primary endpoint is the mean vertical subsidence (Y translation, also known as superior cup migration) at 2…

This registry is being conducted to support ongoing post-market surveillance activities.

To achieve global goals for the treatment of HIV, most high-prevalence countries are experimenting with and scaling up differentiated service delivery models (DSD). A handful of efforts have been formally described and evaluated in the literature; many others are being implemente…

Design: U.S.-based, single-center, proof-of-concept study Brief Description: A standard clinical contrast-enhanced chest CT scan performed 48 hours after clinically-indicated standard anticoagulation will be compared with a standard clinically-indicated baseline contrast-enhance…

Size is a key data used daily by dietary teams; the paramedical team, nurse and diet are in charge of its measures. In pediatric intensive care unit, a reliable size of the child must be obtained. It allows to realize: * a nutritional assessment based on the World Health Organi…

The main objective of this project is to assess the occupational insertion of these adult patients with pediatric-onset IBD and to compare it with the general population. The secondary objectives are: 1. to assess the level of education and compare it to that of the general pop…

Publicly available outcome assessments for transplant programs do not make salient that some programs tend to reject many of the hearts they are offered, whereas other programs accept a broader range of donor offers. The investigators use empirical studies to test whether transpl…

Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents is a complication causing significant morbidity and mortality related to anesthesia. Ultrasound examination of the gastric antrum allows the detection of preoperative gastric contents contributing to the preoperative assessment of pulmonar…

The brain is composed of a set of areas specialized in specific computations whose outputs need to be transferred to other specialized areas for cognition to emerge. To account for context-dependent behaviors, the information must be flexibly routed through the fixed anatomy of t…

An optimal nutritional supply is associated with better outcome and recovery. For investigating the influence of the nutritional status and body composition on the course of rehabilitation, bioelectrical impedance analyzes (BIA) should be carried out on neurological (early) rehab…

A total of 200 participants are predicted to be enrolled for completing questionnaires in relation of pain assessment tools, back pain disability and autonomy in Albania. A feasibility, validate and test-retest reliability design is estimated.

The aim of this study is to determined the smallest significant value in osteodensitometry in obese population. The study population will be divided in 3 groups according to their BMI. Bone mineral density will be measured twice in osteodensitometry, then the smallest significan…
