LUNGevity Foundation, a non-profit lung cancer organization, wants to learn about living with lung cancer from the point of view of people with lung cancer and their family and friends who provide care. To do this, we have an online study designed to better understand how treatments people living with lung cancer receive impact their quality of life. Participants will complete surveys once a month for 12 months. What does participation involve? 1. Emailing the study team to learn more and get access to the study website. 2. Once a month for 12 months you will receive a survey by email. 3. Complete these surveys on a smartphone, tablet, or computer at your convenience and receive an e-gift card for your time.
This trial studies the attitudes and beliefs of high risk patients and caregivers regarding the prescription of intranasal naloxone spray for opioid overdose. Knowledge regarding high risk patients' and caregivers' beliefs and attitudes regarding co-prescription of naloxone spray with opioids may help to identify barriers to prescribing and helping tailor the education to better meet the needs of patients and caregivers.
The study is an interventional, non-randomized assessment of safety and efficacy of live Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine in subjects aged 12-months to 17 years who have undergone heart transplantation. Subjects who provide permission/assent will receive the commercial MMR vaccine according to product indication and labeling.
This is a prospective, non-interventional, single arm, international multicenter study in which up to 120 adult participants with kidney failure requiring regular hemodialysis through arteriovenous (AV) access (AV fistula or graft) will be recruited and evaluated using the PatenSee system. Data captured on the PatenSee system will be analyzed and evaluated against standard of care clinical monitoring of AV accesses.
This prospective study aims to assess health-related social needs (HRSNs) among patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) receiving outpatient care at Indiana University Health. Patients with CLD often face socioeconomic challenges that adversely affect health outcomes, but no validated screening tool exists for this population. The primary objective is to measure the prevalence and types of HRSNs in CLD patients. Secondary objectives are to evaluate patient preferences regarding provider involvement in addressing social needs, explore reasons for declining assistance, and assess provider perspectives on incorporating HRSN data into clinical care. A total of 200 adult patients with CLD and their visit providers will be enrolled. Participants will complete surveys on demographics, HRSNs, health literacy, quality of life, social support, and patient activation, with medical data supplemented from chart review. Providers will complete surveys about their experiences using HRSN data in routine practice. Results will describe unmet social needs in this population, patient and provider attitudes toward screening, and inform strategies for integrating HRSN assessments into liver disease management and routine healthcare delivery.
Gene therapy is a new possible treatment for the anemia of DBAS. Gene therapy will soon be available for patients with RPS19-mutated DBAS. This involves inserting the corrected RPS19 gene into the cells, leading to correction of the anemia. The application of gene therapy requires sufficient numbers of stem cells on which the correction can be performed. Stem cells must be mobilized (stimulated to move) from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood and then collected (also called 'harvested'). It is not known if patients with DBAS can mobilize enough stem cells into the peripheral blood to allow for the harvesting of sufficient numbers to permit genetic manipulation. It is important to demonstrate the ability to harvest an adequate number of stem cells before gene therapy can be tried in patients with DBAS. The purpose of this study is to determine if mobilization of stem cells from the bone marrow in patients with DBAS is enough to obtain the numbers of peripheral blood stem cells necessary for effective gene therapy. An actual harvest will not be done.
The goal of this campaign is to reduce unnecessary visits to a Geisinger emergency department (ED). In this campaign, patients will be assigned to receive or not receive outreach following ED discharge with a low-acuity visit designation. Outreach will occur via a text message the day after discharge from the ED as well as information added to the patient's after visit summary (AVS). Depending on the assigned condition, it will include calls to see their primary care provider (PCP) or use an Intelligent Triage tool. The study will assess whether ED use within the following 120 days differs across patients in different outreach conditions (current standard practice vs contact your PCP vs use Intelligent Triage). It will also examine whether patients follow through on the message-specific calls to action differently across conditions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug OPGx-BEST1 works to treat BVMD and ARB Bestrophinopathy. It will also learn about the safety of drug OPGx-BEST1. The main questions it aims to answer are: Evaluate the safety and tolerability of drug OPGx-BEST1 in one eye (the treatment eye), for 5 years post-injection, in participants with BVMD or ARB. A second question it aims to answer is identification of the most appropriate dose strength of OPGx-BEST1 for clinical development. Evaluate the efficacy of single injection of OPGx-BEST1 in one eye for 5 years post-injection. What medical problems do participants have when taking drug OPGx-BEST1?
This clinical trial tests how well different types of massage therapy works to reduce anxiety during chemotherapy infusions in patients with cancer. Many cancer patients experience moderate to severe anxiety and anxiety can worsen by the anticipation of medical procedures that patients have to receive, particularly chemotherapy. Massage therapy, as a complementary treatment, has shown promise in lessening both physical and psychological symptoms associated with cancer and its treatments. Research has also shown the benefits of massage therapy in reducing pain, stress, anxiety, nausea (upset stomach), fatigue (tiredness), and depression in cancer patients. Different types of massage therapy may potentially reduce some cancer patients' symptoms, enhance their treatment, and reduce treatment related side effects.
The main goal is to understand what causes reduced fitness in ANOCA and whether targeted exercise can help improve it. This study aims to better understand why patients with Angina and No Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (ANOCA) have poor cardiorespiratory fitness and its effect on quality of life. Investigators also want to see if a structured high-intensity exercise program (HIIT), done with remote monitoring, can safely improve heart function, fitness, and quality of life in these patients. The Investigators will use a special exercise test called cardiopulmonary exercise testing to look for patterns that can help explain exercise limitations and quality of life in ANOCA before and after a remote high-intensity exercise program.
