To assess indacaterol (300 and 600 ug once daily via SDDPI) superiority in patients with COPD as compared to placebo with respect to 24 h post dose (through) FEV1 after 12 weeks of treatment.
Primary objective:* Evaluate long-term effect of tolvaptan in ADPKD through rate of renal volume change(%) for tolvaptan-treated compared to placebo-treated subjects.Secondary objectives:* Evaluate long-term efficacy of tolvaptan in ADPKD through a…
to compare the analgesic efficacy of levobupivacaine and ropivacaine in patient-controlled epidural analgesia, as assessed by the number of requests for epidural bolus injectionsto compare visual analogue scale (VAS) scores and neural block…

The goal is to find answer to the question: do epidural injections with corticosteroids in patients with sciatica have a positive effect on pain, absenteeism from work and number of operations compared to standard care (pain medication only).
We propose to investigate the effect of administering a broad-acting, potent immune suppressive agent early in the course of the disease as this may prevent neuronal damage caused by low-grade inflammatory processes in the brain. It is expected that…
The general aim of this present study is to investigate whether blockade of the saphenous nerve can provide the same degree of analgesia postoperatively for ACLS as a femoral nerve block without resulting motor blockade enhancing shortening of…
