Parc Sanitari Sant Joan De Deu

At Parc Sanitari Sant Joan De Deu, the psychiatry service is running studies focused on mental disorders, especially treatment-resistant depression. These trials are designed to explore new options for people whose symptoms have not improved with standard care and to better understand how to relieve depressive symptoms.

• Testing new therapeutic approaches for treatment-resistant depression
• Evaluating whether novel interventions can improve mood symptoms
• Supporting research into more effective care for difficult-to-treat depression

The site is contributing to research that may expand treatment choices in psychiatric care and improve outcomes for patients with persistent depression.

Clinical research in cardiovascular disease includes studies on acute pulmonary embolism, with a focus on improving patient recovery and reducing complications after diagnosis. These trials aim to assess whether supportive treatment strategies can make a meaningful difference in short-term outcomes.

• Studying acute pulmonary embolism management
• Assessing ways to improve recovery and reduce risk
• Evaluating treatment effectiveness in urgent cardiovascular care

This work helps clarify the best supportive approaches for patients facing serious blood-clot-related conditions.

Research in respiratory diseases at this site covers chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. The studies are aimed at understanding long-term safety, symptom control, and the reduction of flare-ups in people living with chronic lung conditions.

• Evaluating new approaches for COPD
• Studying ways to reduce respiratory exacerbations
• Improving care for bronchiectasis and chronic breathing problems

These trials support better management of ongoing lung disease and may help identify treatments that improve daily breathing and overall stability.

The site is also active in virus disease research, with studies in HIV and HIV infections. These trials focus on maintaining viral suppression in people already receiving treatment and on testing new antiviral options for those starting therapy.

• Evaluating treatment strategies for HIV
• Assessing whether viral control can be maintained with different regimens
• Exploring new antiviral therapies for people living with HIV-1

This area of research aims to improve long-term infection control and expand options for people affected by HIV.

In immune system disease research, the site is studying allergic rhinoconjunctivitis linked to common dust mite allergens. The trials are designed to evaluate whether targeted treatment can reduce allergy symptoms and improve comfort in people with persistent allergic disease.

• Studying allergic rhinoconjunctivitis and related symptoms
• Testing treatments for dust mite-driven allergy
• Improving symptom relief in allergic disease

These studies may help refine care for patients with ongoing allergy symptoms, including those who also have controlled asthma.

Research in bacterial infections at Parc Sanitari Sant Joan De Deu includes work aimed at preventing infection-related complications in people undergoing total joint replacement. The purpose is to evaluate strategies that may lower the chance of reoperation linked to infection.

• Studying infection prevention in joint replacement surgery
• Evaluating methods to reduce postoperative infection risk
• Improving outcomes after hip and knee surgery

This research focuses on safer surgical recovery and better protection against serious infection-related problems.

The site’s musculoskeletal disease research is centered on patients undergoing total joint replacement, including primary and revision procedures. These trials examine ways to improve surgical outcomes by reducing infection-related complications after major orthopedic surgery.

• Investigating recovery after hip and knee replacement
• Studying infection-related outcomes in orthopedic surgery
• Supporting safer care in revision joint replacement

The goal is to help patients recover more safely and with fewer complications after joint surgery.
