Cerebral Palsy

Study designed to test the safety and efficacy of the Medigus SRS endoscopic stapling system for the treatment of GERD. The system allows the operator to staple the stomach to the esophagus,in order to restore the gastroesophageal flap valve. The effect of the stapling is similar to a common operation for GERD (partial fundoplication) but is done through the mouth, and incision into the abdomen is not needed.

Study conducted and completed to evaluate the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of Axid Oral Solution versus placebo in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in infants age 30 days up to 1 year.

Objective of study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) among a broad range of GERD patients treated in routine clinical practice"

Objective of the study is to describe the change in GerdQ sum scores, after a 4-week period of systematic treatment with PPIs(using GerdQ questionnaire). The secondary objectives are: to measure the response at the current treatment after a 4-week period of systematic treatment and to identify the percentage of patients which require alterations of their treatment (GerdQ questionnaire)"

Goal of this study is to determine the long-term health outcome of children diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux (GER).

Purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of rabeprazole sodium, an inhibitor of gastric acid secretion of the protein pump inhibitor (PPI) class, compared with placebo in the treatment of gastrointestinal esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in infants 1 to 11 months of age.

Objective is to determine if a connection exists between proton pump inhibitor antacids and decreased rate of bone mineralization in neonates

Purpose of this completed study is to provide additional information on safety and tolerability after multiple doses of pantoprazole in infants

Study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (blood levels), pharmacodynamics (how the drug acts on the body), and the safety of rabeprazole sodium for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in new borns and pre-term infants (less than 44 weeks of age).

Study to assess the efficacy of pantoprazole for the treatment of infants with symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

Goal of this study is to determine the long-term health outcome of children diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux (GER).

Duke University Clinical trial and study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of the study drug Pregabalin in pediatric patients with partial onset seizures in addition to measuring how much pregabalin is in your child's blood and urine after he/she takes the study drug

Duke University and Multicenter, Open-label Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Lacosamine (LCM) Oral Solution (syrup) as Adjunctive Therapy in Children with Partial Onset Seizures. This study is being done to test the safety of the study drug Lacosamide (LCM) syrup and how the body processes it.

Mayo research study to determine if there are enough patients with hard to treat epilepsy that might qualify for a future study of a medical device that is being developed to treat epilepsy. Participants will not be testing the device during this study. The study doctor will be assessing seizure type(s) and determine how frequently they occur, and to verify if antiseizure medications can be held constant for a period of 12 weeks.
