We hypothesize that, with increased arm abduction moment loading with a constant exerted abduction force, primary arm moment generators (deltoid muscle) will have a greater increase in activation (EMG) as compared to primary arm/glenohumeral…
The percentage of curatively treatable metastatic disease after surgery for primary colorectal cancer can be increased by means of optimizing follow-up of colorectal carcinoma. Intensifying the follow-up by increasing frequency of CEA measurements…
1. Has tailored information on hepatitis B prevention more effect on test behaviour than generic information? 2. Does 'cultural tailored' information on hepatitis B prevention have more effect on test behaviour than tailored information?
The multidisciplinary integrated care programme is effective in improving self-help, social participation and experienced quality of life of elderly stroke patients. And is effective on the reduction of burden of care of carers.
Modern dressings containing silver are more effective than topical antibiotic treatment for healing of PEG-site infections.
Overweight and obesity are already prevalent in 4- till 8-year-old children. Obesity-inducing behaviours in young children have been found to track throughout the life span. Acknowledging the lack of effective interventions aimed at preschool…
The hypothesis to be tested is that arm B is tolerable and that the outcome in arm B is better than in arm A.
Evidence based medicine is the standard for current clinical practice. Guidelines and decision rules are developed to support medical decision making. Application of decision rules are supposed to improve efficiency and quality of care by early…
1. Cancer survivors who received the high-intensity exercise program will have significantly higher muscle strength, cardiopulmonary function, and health-related quality of life after 12 weeks intervention compared to cancer survivors who received…
Parens with psychiatric problems often have parenting problems, in particular when they have to deal with other risk factors for poor parenting like for instance isolation and poverty. This means an enhanced risk for their children on developing…
ARA290 will reduce disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis.
Compared to standard judicial supervision, judicial supervision augmented with a short motivation enhancing intervention will lead to: 1. An increased motivation for change and motivation for treatment; 2. An increased probability to enter…
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus radiological drainage of the gallbladder in acute cholecystitis.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the preferred therapy for all patients eligible for surgery with acute calculous cholecystitis.
A combination of sciatic nerve blockade (single shot or continuous blockade) with continuous regional blockade of the femoral nerve will improve short and long term functional outcome as well as patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty.
It is hypothesised that energy related behaviours and work engagement will improve as a result of the intervention. Overweight will be prevented as a result of the improvement in energy balance related behaviours. In addition, work related measures…
Chronic stroke subjects who will be trained in a stimulus rich context, specifically developed for rehabilitation (rehab game) will show similar or improved restoration of their arm function in comparison with chronic stroke subjects who will be…
A randomized controlled trial to compare the following strategies: two IVM-ICSI cycles or one COH-IVF/ICSI cycle. These strategies are expected to have comparable outcomes for ongoing pregnancy rates and direct costs (treatment costs). IVM is…
When insufficient amounts of analgesics have been infused during anestesia, the BIS response a surgical stimulus will be larger and the BIS and EMG display increased variability (CVI).
We hypothesize that this simplified HALO90 ablation procedure results in an easier and faster ablation procedure, while maintaining efficacy and safety.
Intraoperative cholangiography with the Kumar clamp is faster and easier than with the Olsen clamp.
