Preterm Lung Patient Registry
NCT00951366
Recruiting
The goal of the Preterm Lung Patient Registry is to collect data on individuals with neonatal lung disease to better understand the illness and ultimately improve their care and survival. The Patient Registry was established in 2008 as a means to monitor important trends in the BPD population and to improve understanding, treatment, and survival.

Genetic Study of Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS)
NCT00499317
Recruiting
Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a condition with several causes of which some remain unknown. It is believed that some types of CP may be genetic or passed down (inherited) from one generation to the next. In this study, we are collecting genetic material and medical information to try to determine if genetic factors play a role in CP/CPPS. We will be collecting DNA (from Blood/Saliva sample) and urine from each participant. Bladder tissue from affected individuals... Read More

Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide Monitoring in Neonates Receiving Therapeutic Hypothermia for Neonatal Encephalopathy
NCT04603547
Recruiting
The aim of our study is to evaluate the feasibility of applying transcutaneous CO2 monitoring (tcPCO2) in neonates receiving therapeutic hypothermia and to quantify the agreement between tcPCO2 and PCO2 in this population with or without respiratory support. Although, transcutaneous measurement of CO2 tension is the most commonly used non-invasive CO2 monitoring system in neonatal intensive care, to date tcPCO2 technique has not been evaluated systematically or used routinely in the intensive ca...

Just in Time Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation Trial
NCT05983640
Recruiting
The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Just in Time (JiT) video as compared to the AHA Heartsaver® Course and no training (control) in ability to correctly perform CPR. The secondary objective is to assess skill retention 3-9 months after the AHA Heartsaver course with and without JiT Video use. The goal of this work is to study the effectiveness of this new JiT video to improve objective knowledge- and performance-based measures of effective OHCA response, as well as subjective rat...

Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Pulsation (LIFUP) for the Treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
NCT04557891
Recruiting
There are few treatment options available for patients once they have failed standard psychopharmacological therapy for generalized anxiety disorder. Existing brain stimulation methods such as rTMS fail to target deep brain structures associated with anxiety disorders; structures such as the amygdala. In this double-blind sham-controlled clinical trial, the investigators propose to establish baseline severity of anxiety in 48 patients, then deliver eight treatments over four sessions of focused...

Feasibility of [11C]Acetate-PET in LAM and TSC
NCT05467397
Recruiting
This study aims to assess \[11C\]acetate positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) as a biomarker for renal angiomyolipomas and pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and an early biomarker of response to rapamycin in LAM patients. \[11C\]Acetate is a radioactive form of acetate, a nutrient commonly processed in our body's cells to generate fat and energy. Preclinical studies support the hypothesis that TSC tumors enhance lipid synthesis compared to normal tissues, suggestin... Read More

COVID-19-Related Opioid Treatment Policy Evaluation
NCT05028998
Recruiting
Our nation is facing the COVID-19 pandemic during an ongoing opioid epidemic. Effective treatment for patients with opioid use problems involves a treatment method called Medication-Assisted Treatment, or MAT. In MAT, patients receive a medication that reduces cravings and withdrawal symptoms and can prevent overdose. Patients also receive counseling. Because the medications that are used in MAT are controlled substances, this treatment is subject to a number of federal regulations. The need for... Read More
