Study of Platelet Population Changes Under Circulatory Support With ECMO
Advances in flow cytometry techniques have led to a better understanding of platelet phenotypes and have revealed the existence of four major platelet populations with distinct functional properties (native, proaggregating, procoagulating, or apoptotic). These phenotypes have a significant impact on the hemostatic capacity of blood platelets, and a proportional change …
Early Versus Later Re-valving in Tetralogy of Fallot With Free Pulmonary Regurgitation
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is a congenital heart defect with four major features including right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. About 25 children are born with this condition in Denmark every year. Corrective surgery is usually performed within the first year. In 50 % of patients, enlargement with a patch is …
COMPASSION S3 - Evaluation of the SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve in Patients With Pulmonary Valve Dysfunction
This study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Systems in subjects with a dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention.
Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors for Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot Patients for Enhancement of Cardio-Pulmonary Status Trial
Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) is the leading cause of congenital cyanotic heart disease worldwide, involving up to 7-10% of congenital heart disease. With advances in open-heart surgical repair techniques and medical therapies, there is a significant increase in patients with rTOF surviving till late adulthood. One sequalae that nearly …
The Effect of an Additional Pre-extubational Loading Dose of Caffeine-citrate
The goal of this clinical trial is to answer whether the use of a single loading dose (20 mg/kg) of caffeine citrate one hour before extubation has an impact on the success rate of extubation among preterm neonates. In addition, the investigators would like to assess the frequency of apneas …
EIT-Guided Ventilator Settings in AHRF
This exploratory study aims to investigate the effect of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT)-guided ventilator settings on mechanical power in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), including both ARDS and non-ARDS conditions. Mechanical power, a key factor associated with ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), will be measured before and after EIT-guided …
Simulation Trial of Telemedical Support for Paramedics
In the United States, the current standard of prehospital (i.e. outside of hospitals) emergency care for children with life-threatening illnesses in the community includes remote physician support for paramedics providing life-saving therapy while transporting the child to the hospital. Most prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) agencies use radio-based (audio only) …
Decremental Esophageal Catheter Filling Volume Titration For Transpulmonary Pressure Measurement
Mechanical ventilation is a critical intervention in the management of pediatric patients with respiratory distress. During this process, accurate measurement of transpulmonary pressure (PL) is essential to ensure the safety and efficacy of ventilation. PL is defined as the difference between alveolar pressure (Palv) and pleural pressure (Ppl). While the …
Physiologic Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and High Flow Nasal Oxygenation in Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) consists on a lack of breath due to fluid overload in the lungs that is not produced by a heart desease. Some people with this condition may need to be intubated and connected to invasive mechanical ventilation, but less severe cases may need supplementary …
The ROTAtional-USE of Interface STUDY
In this trial investigators will explore if a protocolized rotational use of interfaces i.e., masks, during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) compared to standard care is clinically effective and cost-effective in reducing the incidence of pressure sores in patients with hypercapnic acute respiratory failure (AHRF) treated continuously i.e., for more …
