This study will examine the relationship of airways resistance measured by oscillometry with ventilation defects measured by Phase Resolved Functional Lung (PREFUL) MRI in healthy human subjects.
Blood group A2 to blood group O kidney and liver transplants have been shown to be safe and successful, especially in recipients with low pre-operative anti-A antibody titers and with the use of peri-operative antibody-depleting therapies. Since blood group O lung transplant candidates tend to have longer wait times and …
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the most common opportunistic infection in lung transplantation leading to direct and indirect effects that can result in life threatening complications. The risk of CMV infection is highest when the recipient of the transplant has never been in contact with CMV (negative immunity) and the donor …
The formalized expert recommendation of the French Society of Anesthesia and Intensive Care recommends guiding vascular filling by measuring the stroke volume (SV) in surgical patients considered at high risk. Vascular filling should be continued in the event of preload dependence and stopped in the event of the appearance of …
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends annual lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose CT for adults aged 50-80 with a ≥20 pack-year smoking history who currently smoke or quit within the past 15 years. Despite insurance coverage, only 17% of eligible Iowans were screened in 2024. Barriers include the …
The transition of palliative care patients from inpatient to outpatient care is aimed to be improved through structured pharmaceutical discharge management by a trained pharmacist. This data will be compared with retrospective cases.
The goal of this study is to learn how the body's immune system affects disease control in people with different airway inflammatory diseases.We want to understand: 1.Whether specific immune cell patterns in the blood are linked to how severe the disease is or how well it is controlled. Participants will: …
This clinical trial evaluates the acceptability and effectiveness of an educational intervention (Lung Toolkit) for improving knowledge about lung cancer and lung cancer screening among American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) cigarette smokers. The Lung Toolkit is an educational intervention, including a website and a physical artifact pouch, specifically tailored to the …
Lung cancer screening trials using low-dose chest CT scans have shown a significant reduction of cancer related mortality in subjects at high risk of lung cancer. However, high rate of false positives and overdiagnosis have led to invasive methods, which are not without risks. Evaluation of lung nodules using lung …
The goal of this randomized interventional clinical trial is to learn if a standardized lung volume optimization maneuver (LVOM) is beneficial in study) children undergoing biventricular repair of their congenital heart disease (CHD) with cardiopulmonary bypass and study) in children with severe respiratory failure at risk for or need for …
