Evaluating Efficacy of Smart Device in Assisting With Inhaler Technique and Adherence
Asthma affects over 10 million children in the U.S., and poses a significant health and cost burden. Metered dose inhaler (MDI) is the most common method of treatment. Studies show that up to 80% of patients demonstrate incorrect use of MDIs, which results in suboptimal medication delivery to the lungs. …
Internet-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (ICBT) for Post-secondary Students
Post-secondary students are at an elevated risk for anxiety and depression, with approximately one in three students experiencing clinical levels of symptoms at some point during their academic career. Despite the high prevalence of these mental health concerns, many students do not receive adequate treatment. Internet-delivered cognitive behaviour therapy (ICBT) …
Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Combination Therapy for the Treatment of Acne Vulgaris
Acne vulgaris is a multifactorial, highly prevalent dermatologic condition that results in visible lesions that can be quite disfiguring. Consequently, individuals with acne often suffer from a wide range of psychological manifestations. Although there is consensus that combination therapy is most effective in treating acne, researchers are constantly striving to …
Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) in ALS
Twelve adults with ALS will participate in a study involving four 3-week cycles of progressive respiratory muscle training (RMT). The investigators will measure maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) weekly. The investigators will obtain the majority of measurements of MIP and MEP during web-based telehealth visits. Participants …
Wearable Monitoring Systems for Swallowing Function and Disorders
Wearable tele-rehabilitation technology allows for the efficient provision of rehabilitation services from a distance, facilitating tele-management of many disorders. The proposed research will develop and validate a set of mechanically compliant, easy-to-use, and inexpensive wearable tele-monitoring systems, for future use in the rehabilitation of swallowing disorders (dysphagia). The hypothesis is …
A Randomized Trial Examining Plasma Exchange Using the Becton Dickinson (BD) Catheter In an Outpatient Apheresis Unit
This is a randomized pilot study of therapeutic apheresis procedures (TAP) using the current standard of care catheter (SOC) vs the BD Nexiva Diffusics Catheter. It is a single blinded, randomized study. Data will be used to refine and power a full randomized control trial. For this study, a sample …
Codman Catheter/Synchromed Pump Hepatic Artery Chemotherapy for Unresectable Colorectal Metastases/Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
Due to discontinuation of the Codman C3000 pump, an alternate device is necessary to continue serving patients in need of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy. This study aims to test the safety of hepatic artery infusion pump placement, a standard surgical procedure, and intraarterial chemotherapy initiation with the standard medication floxuridine …
A Study of Local Administration of Autologous Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Dysphonic Patients With Vocal Fold Scarring
The overall aim of the project is to develop a new method for treatment of untreatable severe hoarseness due to vocal fold scarring by local injection of autologous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC). At present there is no lasting effective treatment for this condition which results in personal suffering, and often …
Suicide Prevention for Patients With Chronic Pain
Patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=60) will be randomized to receive remote-PST or remote-supportive psychotherapy. We will assess problem-solving deficits through self-report, objective neuropsychological assessment and caregiver report. We have used an adaptive design so that if there is strong evidence for target engagement, we will continue …
Ruxolitinib for Acute Respiratory Disorder Syndrome Due to COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a dramatic effect in public health worldwide. In Brazil, there have been more than 2 million confirmed cases and over 75,000 deaths since February 26, 2020. Based on reports of a hyperinflammatory state associated with COVID-19, the use of immunosuppressive drugs may be efficacious in …
