This is a feasibility study for a new application for capturing fetal cardiac activity. The objective of this study is to determine if it is feasible to capture a fetal ECG signal using a Holter ECG device. As comparison we will use a standard Doppler Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) device. Read Less

To demonstrate that microwave ablation (MWA) of up to 3 hepatic metastases, each with a maximum diameter of ≤ 2.5 cm will result in a 2-year local progression free survival of at least 90%. This is a standard of care (SOC) study. Read Less

A novel bioactive sleeve will be compared to a placebo sleeve with a similar look and feel to assess pain outcomes, patient reported outcome measures, and effectiveness of healing based on range of motion. Read Less

From the research and current studies, post-operative nausea and vomiting is a common complaint after bariatric surgery. Nausea relief inhalers could improve post-operative nausea and vomiting without the need for further medications, subsequently reducing the chance of side effects. This study could help improve patient satisfaction and increase the ability of the patient to ambulate after surgery with the use of a nausea relief inhaler. Read Less

The early use of blood products as a part of Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) during trauma resuscitation has been increasingly supported by providers and backed by the literature. However, the incidence of hypocalcemia during MTP has also been recorded and continues to be studied as an exacerbating factor in coagulopathy during trauma. Read Less

A Phase 3 Multi-Center, Randomized, Double Masked, Vehicle Controlled Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of ST-100 (vezocolmitide) Ophthalmic Solution 60 μg/ml Ophthalmic Solution in Subjects Diagnosed with Dry Eye Disease (DED) Read Less

Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) is a rare cannabinoid and is a homologue of THC that differs only in the length of the alkyl side chain (3C vs 5C, respectively). Pre-clinical and clinical trials have shown that THCV has medical potential as a neuroprotectant, anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, and most notably as a therapeutic to improve glycemic control in type 2 diabetic patients. Several THCV products are available in states with recreational cannabis. Anecdotal reports from adult cannabis users indicate that THCV provides an energizing, focusing and euphoric high-while still creating a lucid, uplifting experience. Additionally, unlike THC-dominant products, THCV was not reported to increase appetite. Other anecdotal comments referring to increased ability to focus for long periods of time and being more active were common. Given anecdotal evidence, which shows that THCV is activating and improving focus, this provides rationale and justification to conduct a clinical research study to further test and understand whether THCV improves motivation, focus, level of energy, and does not stimulate appetite in healthy adults.

Twenty (20) individuals to be recruited from Ballantyne Medical Associates in Charlotte, NC, without any significant chronic medical history. These patients are general patients for primary care that meet inclusion criteria. Patients will be screened and enrolled by Dr. Bauer and his delegated research staff upon patient consult. Patients will be informed of the purpose of the study including risks, benefits, and alternative treatments to the study. After the potential participants have been given the opportunity to ask questions and have their questions answered, they will be asked to sign an informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures being performed. Blinded test product will be randomly assigned to study subjects. Test group 1 will be dosed with a placebo capsule taken two capsules once daily Test group 2 will be dosed with Berkeley Life capsules taken two capsules once daily. At baseline, prior to crossover to the other treatment, and at the study's conclusion, NO levels will be monitored using salivary nitric oxide test strips. Both test groups will remain on their existing treatment protocol throughout the study. Read Less

The use of clopidogrel as part of DAPT will be associated with lower bleeding rates compared to ticagrelor in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia requiring Percutaneous intervention (PCI )with Drug Eluting Stent (DES) or Bare Metal Stint(BMS). Read Less

Breast abscesses are an unfortunate pathology that develop in patients, and treatment is often painful and unpleasant. The goal of this study is to identify risk factors associated with failure of aspiration as a primary intervention as opposed to incision and drainage in the hopes of adequately treating patients at initial presentation.

In 2019, a full-time chaplain was placed in the Golden Cross Academic Clinic (GCAC), with the chaplain's focus being in the primary care internal medicine department. While research exists regarding chaplains in the inpatient setting, research regarding the presence of a full-time chaplain in a primary care setting as well as the topics patients discuss with that chaplain are limited.

This phase 2 study is to assess the safety and efficacy of APX-115 active doses in Contrast Induced Acute Kidney Disease compared to placebo following multiple oral dosing in patients with undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. It is anticipated that approximately 280 patients will be randomized into the study in a 1:1 ratio to 400 mg APX-115 (Isuzinaxib hydrochloride) or placebo arm. Read Less
