Ophthalmology and Glaucoma
Hospital Del Mar conducts clinical research in ophthalmic care with a focus on procedural comfort and local anaesthesia for office-based eye interventions. Its work includes comparisons of topical anaesthetic approaches used in needling procedures within glaucoma management.
- Topical anaesthesia
- Ophthalmic procedures
- Glaucoma care
The sponsor’s activity in this area is centred on improving anaesthetic selection in routine ophthalmology consultations.
Orthopaedic Surgery and Total Hip Arthroplasty
Clinical research at Hospital Del Mar also covers perioperative care in total hip arthroplasty, with attention to regional anaesthesia strategies that support postoperative recovery, pain control, and early mobilisation.
- Regional anaesthesia
- Postoperative analgesia
- Quadriceps strength
This area reflects an interest in anaesthetic approaches relevant to fast-track hip replacement pathways.
Healthy Volunteers and Exposure Assessment
The sponsor supports research involving healthy volunteers in studies examining exposure to substances prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency, with a focus on identifying and characterising unintended exposure in controlled clinical settings.
- Healthy volunteer studies
- Anti-doping substances
- Exposure evaluation
This research domain is linked to analytical and clinical questions relevant to sports medicine and substance monitoring.
