Antibiotic Cement Bead Pouch Versus Negative Pressure Wound Therapy
NCT05615844
Recruiting
The Beads vs Vac trial is a multi-centre randomized controlled trial of 312 participants with a severe open tibia fracture requiring multiple irrigation and debridement surgeries. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive either an antibiotic bead pouch or negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) for their temporary open fracture wound management. Outcomes will be assessed at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months post-surgery. The primary outcome will be a composite outcome to evaluate clinica... Read More

At-Home taVNS - Stroke Rehab
NCT06616831
Recruiting
Early evidence suggests the benefits of post-stroke motor rehabilitation may be enhanced by applying electrical stimulation to the ear. This study aims to test the new approach of pairing ear stimulation with motor rehabilitation in the home setting in stroke survivors with upper limb motor function deficits.

Out of State - tAN hEDS
NCT06548594
Recruiting
Hypermobile EDS and hypermobile spectrum disorder (collectively referred to as hEDS) are estimated to affect 1 in 500 individuals worldwide. hEDS patients have limited treatment options for their numerous symptoms that impact the quality of life. This clinical trial tests a new ear stimulation method in hEDS patients to determine if it may improve quality of life.

Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome - Transcutaneous Auricular Neuromodulation
NCT06105541
Recruiting
Investigate whether at-home transcutaneous auricular VNS (tAN: transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation) improves a battery of nine key physical and psychological symptoms of a group of hEDS (Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome \& Hypermobile Spectrum Disorder) patients (n=30) using a randomized, double blind, sham controlled design. The study team will collect clinical measures at baseline, after a two-week double-blind intervention phase, after a following two-week open-label phase and finally... Read More

RM1 Project 1 - tAN Naloxone
NCT05490134
Recruiting
This two-visit, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial, uses a novel naloxone blockade model in 136 individuals to determine whether the analgesic effects of a 30-minute transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) intervention are mediated through a release of endogenous opioids. Analgesic effects of four various stimulation interventions will be measured (auricular vagus, auricular trigeminal, combination, or sham) while varying the type of intravenous (IV) infusion (either naloxon...

RM1 Project 2 - tAN fMRI
NCT05487664
Recruiting
In this one-visit, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial, we plan to use a novel concurrent transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) paradigm during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) paradigm in 96 individuals to determine whether tAN administered to two cranial nerves simultaneously produces greater neurophysiologic effects than stimulating solely to the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN) or the auriculotemporal nerve (ATN; branch of trigeminal nerve) alone....

Gravity Versus Vacuum Based Indwelling Tunneled Pleural Drainage System
NCT03831386
Recruiting
Malignant pleural effusion remains a debilitating complication of end stage cancer, which can be greatly improved by the introduction of the indwelling tunneled pleural catheter (IPC). However, there is no standard of care regarding drainage and limited data on the utility of different drainage techniques. In addition, many patients develop discomfort and chest pain during drainage. The investigators propose to evaluate gravity drainage and suction drainage on quality of life measures and outcom...

Efficacy of Intramuscular Steroid Injection for Chronic Cough.
NCT06634823
Recruiting
The primary goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that injecting steroid intramuscularly is an effective treatment for unexplained chronic cough. This will be achieved through the design of a prospective, placebo-controlled, single-blind, randomized clinical trial in which one group of patients will undergo a steroid injection into the deltoid muscle and the second group will undergo a placebo injection into the deltoid muscle. Data to determine if a clinically significant difference exis... Read More
