Nervous System Diseases and Traumatic Brain Injury Research
At Azienda Socio Sanitaria Territoriale Della Valle Olona in Saronno, the Neuroscience department is involved in clinical research focused on nervous system diseases, with a strong emphasis on subacute moderate to severe traumatic brain injury. These studies are designed to assess the safety and tolerability of a new treatment approach and to explore its potential to support recovery in adults with brain injury.
- Study of traumatic brain injury care in adults with moderate to severe injury
- Evaluation of a new intranasal therapy for safety, tolerability, and possible clinical benefit
- Research aimed at improving treatment options in neurorehabilitation
This work reflects a small but focused effort to advance neurologic care through early clinical testing and better understanding of treatment effects.
Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases in Chronic Dialysis Care
The site is also conducting research in nutritional and metabolic diseases, centered on end stage kidney disease in people receiving chronic dialysis therapy. The trial is examining whether a potassium-binding treatment can help patients reduce strict dietary potassium limits without increasing the risk of hyperkalemia, while also looking at quality of life and nutrition.
- End stage kidney disease in patients on chronic dialysis
- Assessment of a treatment intended to support safer potassium control
- Interest in improving dietary flexibility, nutrition, and patient well-being
At this hospital/clinic, the research combines kidney care and nutrition-focused outcomes to better understand how treatment may improve everyday management for dialysis patients.
