Effects of PERMISSive Lung-protective Ventilation on Outcome in Critically Ill Invasively Ventilated Patients
RATIONALE Lung-protective ventilation using a lower respiratory rate (RR) is an appealing strategy to reduce ventilation intensity, which may require permissive hypercapnia. However, the feasibility and safety of this so-called 'permissive lung-protective ventilation' must be investigated, before conducting a large randomized clinical trial to evaluate its effectiveness on patient-centered outcomes. …
Closed-loop syncHronization vErsuS convenTional Synchronization in sPontaneously Breathing Adult Nonivasive ventilationPatients
The study is a multicentric prospective randomised cross-over study. It evaluates the compatibility of patients with the device without altering the routine treatment applied. During this evaluation, either the clinician-adjusted values on the device or the standard pre-set values are used to obtain hourly and 30-minute PVA (Patient Ventilator Asynchrony) …
Improving Chronic Nocturnal Noninvasive Ventilation: a Multimodality Approach
The aim of the data collection is to create an advanced reliable method to remotely monitor patient on chronic home non-invasive ventilation (NIV), both regarding ventilatory efficacy and patient comfort, both in the hospital and at home by assessing gas exchange, lung mechanics and the interaction between the patient and …
Impact of PEEP on Respiratory Effort During Assisted Ventilation
Assisted mechanical ventilation is widely used to preserve diaphragmatic activity and improve lung aeration in patients with acute respiratory failure. However, during assisted ventilation, excessive inspiratory effort may develop and contribute to lung injury, diaphragmatic overload, and patient self-inflicted lung injury. Optimizing ventilator settings to modulate respiratory effort therefore represents …
Providing Oxygen During Intubation in the NICU Trial
Tracheal intubation in the NICU is frequently complicated by severe oxygen desaturation. Apneic oxygenation, a method of applying free flowing oxygen via nasal cannula to apneic patients undergoing intubation, prevents or delays oxygen desaturation during intubation in adults and older children. We propose to enroll patients at two sites (Hospital …
Estimation of the Diaphragm Electrical Activity and Intercostal Thickening Fraction During Different Pattern of Mechanical Ventilation: PSV Versus NAVA
the introduction of new MV modalities has shown promising results in reducing the incidence of weaning failure, mainly due to a more physiologic approach which allows respiratory muscle preservation. Among them, the Neurally Adjust Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) seemed to be associated with lower incidence of weaning failure and subsequent duration …
Analgesia-First Sedation in Trauma Patients
The study's aim is to ascertain the best approach for providing sedation and pain management for patients who have sustained trauma and are requiring respiratory support from a mechanical ventilator. The common approach to patients who need mechanical ventilation is to provide continuous drips of sedatives and pain medicine and …
Assessment of Ventilation Parameters for Extubation Prediction in ICU
The study aims to research the values of mechanical power, driving pressure, and elastic power in predicting the duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation. This will help determine which patients may be considered for early extubation, which patients should wait for extubation, and the …
Physiological Effect High-flow Tracheal Oxygen on Viscosity of Airway Mucus and Respiratory Effort in Patients Weaning from Invasive Mechanical Ventilation
Rationale: Tracheostomized patients weaning from mechanical ventilation are at risk for dryness of airway mucosa and sputum accumulation during disconnection from mechanical ventilation. High-flow tracheal oxygen (HFTO) is being used as supportive therapy during disconnection sessions in tracheostomized patients weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) to limit dryness while maintaining …
Identifying the Best Flow Setting Strategy for High-Flow Nasal Cannula
The goal of this randomized trial is to compare four different flow-setting approaches for post-extubation use of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). Selecting the appropriate flow rate when initiating HFNC oxygen therapy is both crucial and challenging for clinicians, as the physiological benefits of HFNC depend significantly on the flow rate. …
