MilanAges 22 years+ - NCT07311395Recruiting
Gentamicin injection to prevent infection after planned C-section
This study tests whether a local injection of gentamicin, an antibiotic, into the incision area can help prevent infections after a planned C-section. It may offer extra protection beyond standard antibiotics.
NahariyaAges 18 years+ - NCT07312045Recruiting
Gum health and healing after non-surgical treatment
This study looks at how certain blood and saliva measurements relate to gum disease and healing after a deep cleaning. It may help find better ways to track gum health.
Merkez, ErzincanAges 18–65 - NCT06832553Recruiting
Safer breathing tube taping for premature babies
