Observational Group for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome
Recruiting1 award4 criteria
Baltimore, Maryland
Substance abuse during pregnancy is on the rise through both prescribed and illicit use of controlled substances, which has increased neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). The prevalence of opioid use during pregnancy has increased by 333% from 2013 to 2014 and continues to rise. Approximately 1 in 3 women were prescribed opioids during pregnancy from 2008 to 2012. In the US, NAS was diagnosed every 25 minutes in 2014. By 2019, it became every 15 minutes. Although there are medication-based interventions for the treatment of NAS, used in up to 80% of opioid-exposed infants, these treatments carry risks of toxicity and drug interactions. Despite the steep medical costs and the risks of treatment, current tools to assess the severity of NAS are subjective and suffer from examiner bias, resulting in poorer clinical outcomes, such as longer lengths of stay in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), for these babies. Studies have shown that continuous vital sign monitoring improves outcomes and decreases the length of stay in general practice. Preliminary machine learning models have been able to predict pharmacological treatment for Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome (NOWS). This project will collect physiological and behavioral data of NAS patients to develop an AI algorithm and establish the advantages of continuous monitoring in NAS. The AI algorithm, processed by machine learning, will help predict NAS symptoms, automate scoring, and provide healthcare personnel with predictive analytics to guide suggested treatments.

Study subjects for Prosthetic limb
Recruiting1 award2 criteria
Bethesda, Maryland
The investigators will accomplish our research aims by collecting cutaneous microbiome samples from 50 persons that have undergone the Osseointegration (OI) surgery at eight timepoints, prospectively. The investigators will also collect control samples to correct for turnovers in species compositions that may naturally occur and to compare the residual limb microbiome to the sound contralateral limb. The investigators will sequence the bacterial community using universal bacterial primers. Using these sequences, The investigators will borrow from ecological theory and calculate the alpha and beta diversity. The alpha diversity will determine the species and abundance of each species that are present, while the beata diversity will allow us to compare how species assemblages and frequencies change between time points. Then, the investigators will take a phylogenetic modeling approach to determine if particular species assemblages correlate with rates of wound healing. The investigators will construct phylogenies from the sequences at the different time points and "paint" the rate of wound healing along the phylogeny (e.g., improved, stagnated, worsened). Using Akaike and Bayesian information criterion, the investigators can determine which phylogenetic model best explains the patterns the investigators see across patients. Lastly, the investigators will quantify soft tissue stability and health and correlate this with the homeostasis of the microbial community. Specifically, the investigators will determine if redundant soft tissue leads to altered microbial communities that can impact the rate of wound healing. Finally, the investigators will further stratify these data to compare microbial communities between the sexes, upper versus lower limbs, and proximal versus distal amputations. This work will allow us to better treat infections after OI surgery and can shed light on wound healing process so that the investigators can better treat limb loss patients and the military community as a whole.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
