3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Our institution implemented a protocol to administer an emergent IV dye preparation for stroke alert patients requiring advanced neuroimaging. The emergent IV dye preparation consists of diphenhydramine 50 mg IV once, famotidine 20 mg IV once, and dexamethasone 10 mg IV once, followed immediately by Computed Tomography (CT) Angiography and/or CT Perfusion.
Permanent hair dyes are commonly used in over the counter direct to consumer products and within hair salons. Allergy, also known as contact dermatitis, to hair dye is a well known phenomenon. Herein, we seek to decrease the risks of allergy to hair dyes by testing a novel version of p-phenylenediamine (PPD) with less allergy potential.
The purpose of this study is to determine if adding blue dye improves the saline load test, which is a way to detect a traumatic intraarticular knee injury by injecting normal saline into the knee and looking for outflow through the wound.
