Study of Inflammatory and Physiological Profiles of Healthy and Diseased Lung
There are over 700,000 UK hospital admissions every year with lung disease symptoms. Two of the most common lung diseases contributing to these numbers are asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The immunopathology of these diseases is not fully understood. Matched samples from the respiratory tract and circulation will …
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 …
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.
Evaluation of the Duration of Obtaining Curative Anticoagulation in Patients With Clinically Significant Pulmonary Embolism in an Intensive Care Unit
Current management of intermediate- and high-risk pulmonary embolism is primarily based on curative subcutaneous or intravenous anticoagulation, with or without systemic fibrinolytic therapy or thrombectomy (8). Initial treatment with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) or fondaparinux is preferred over unfractionated heparin (UFH) due to their lower risk of serious bleeding and heparin-induced …
Single Time Point Prediction as Earlier Diagnosis of Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis
This study is a prospective observational study for subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or non-IPF interstitial lung diseases (ILD). The purpose of this study is to compare whether imaging patterns from high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) at baseline can predict worsening. Single Time point Prediction (STP) is a score derived …
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 Study of Monitoring and Dosing Guidance of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Based on Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Pharmacogenomics
Integrate pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) modeling and pharmacogenomics techniques to develop a population PK-PD model, aiming to explore monitoring and dose guidance schemes for Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs). Investigate the factors influencing PK-PD of DOACs in the pulmonary embolism population, clarifying the correlation between genotype characteristics and clinical outcomes. Explore the correlation …
Prognostic Model for Long-Term Cardiac Function After Pulmonary Embolism Based on Dynamic Electrocardial Signal and Circulating Biomarkers
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a highly morbid and fatal cardiovascular disease. Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) secondary to PE indicates a poor prognosis and serves as a critical basis for risk stratification. Recent studies have shown that over one-third of patients continue to experience RVD one year after PE, with the …
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, …
