High Resolution Micro OCT Imaging
The purpose of this study is to learn about using the imaging to make images of the lungs and nose with the long-term goal of the research leading to potential treatments and new therapies for patients with cystic fibrosis.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation for COPD Patients: Can Performance Predict Exacerbation?
The aim of pulmonary rehabilitation is to improve exercise capacity and reduce dyspnoea. As well as improving the patient's overall condition, pulmonary rehabilitation provides a means to monitor the patient regularly. During physical exercise, the increased activity of the muscle system increases cardiac and respiratory output. If the patient's respiratory …
Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Emergency Department Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in …
Ultrasound-assisted, Catheter-directed Thrombolysis for Acute Intermediate-high-risk Pulmonary Embolism
The purpose of this retrospective and prospective multicenter study is to evaluate the incidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) within 6 months from ultrasound-assisted, Catheter-directed Thrombolysis for acute intermediate- high-risk Pulmonary Embolism
ALN OATF Vena Cava Filter
Migration of a thrombus in the pulmonary circulation is the leading cause of pulmonary embolism (PE). It can be prevented mechanically by implanting a vena cava filter (VCF) in the inferior vena cava. The implation of a VCF is indicated for patients with acute PE and a contraindication to anticoagulation, …
Explanted Lung Tissues With Pulmonary Fibrosis
The goal of this study is to use the tissues from the explanted lungs in order to better study the cause of pulmonary fibrosis at a cellular level.
Dyspnea and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Longitudinal prospective exploratory study on the evolution of dyspnea, in its sensory and affective dimensions, in patients followed for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), between inclusion and a 6-month evaluation
Quantitative 3-Dimensional Chest CT Vascular Reconstruction Before and After Anticoagulation for Pulmonary Embolism
Design: U.S.-based, single-center, proof-of-concept study Brief Description: A standard clinical contrast-enhanced chest CT scan performed 48 hours after clinically-indicated standard anticoagulation will be compared with a standard clinically-indicated baseline contrast-enhanced chest CT scan using a previously-studied and previously-validated 3-dimensional reconstruction technique to assess changes in the pulmonary vasculature in patients …
Reperfusion Treatment in Acute Pulmonary Embolism
International guidelines recommend immediate reperfusion with systemic thrombolysis (ST) as first-line treatment in high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE). The therapy improves hemodynamics and overall survival but is also associated with a significant risk of severe bleeding. Catheter-directed intervention (CDI) is recommended as an alternative reperfusion therapy in high-risk PE when ST …
The BALANCE Study: A Study in Spain to Find Out Whether a Patient Support Program Helps People With Pulmonary Fibrosis Who Take Nintedanib
The aim of this study is to describe patients' satisfaction with Patient Support Program (Balance Program), Quality of Life and depression symptoms, dosing pattern, disease symptoms, adverse events and nintedanib discontinuation (both permanent and non-permanent) from study inclusion to 12 months of follow-up.
