Personalized Ultrasound-Guided External Diaphragm Pacing to Improve Outcomes in Invasive Mechanically Ventilated Patients
This study aims to explore whether personalized external diaphragm pacing (EDP) guided by real-time diaphragm ultrasound (DU) can improve outcomes for patients on invasive mechanical ventilation. Diaphragm ultrasound will be used to assess each patient's diaphragm function and adjust the pacing intensity, creating a customized treatment plan. By using this …
The Effects of Music Therapy on Adult Patients Requiring Mechanical Ventilation in the ICU
While most studies in the medical literature that indicate "music" as an intervention may recognize its impact and capacity to decrease pain perception, anxiety, and/or its role in the regulation of cardiac and respiratory function in ICU patients, no identifiable studies have implemented entrained live music therapy protocols into clinical …
PEEP-induced Effects on Respiratory dRivE and EFfort
Rationale In patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), preserving spontaneous breathing during mechanical ventilation offers physiological benefits, but also carries risks. While spontaneous breathing improves gas exchange and limits diaphragm atrophy, strong inspiratory efforts may worsen lung and diaphragm injury. Balancing these factors requires refined and tailored strategies, such …
Diaphragm Structure and Pathobiology in Patients Being Bridged to Lung Transplant
This study is designed to characterize the changes in diaphragm structure, function and biology during bridging to lung transplant by mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal life support.
Postoperative Respiratory and Activity Monitoring
This study plans to learn more about specific breathing and activity recommendations for patients after surgery. Participants will be monitored after abdominal surgery to identify what activities help them breathe better and reduce complications after surgery.
The Efficacy of Distal Pharyngeal Airway for Oxygenation During TEE
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of using the McMurray Enhanced Airway (MEA) which is a flexible extended-length distal pharyngeal airway on improving oxygen delivery compared to standard nasal cannula.
Drainage Of Pleural Effusions in the Intensive Care Unit (DOPE-ICU) - Feasibility Trial
This trial evaluates the feasibility of ultrasound-guided pleural drainage versus no drainage in adult ICU patients with pleural effusions (fluid buildup around the lungs) and respiratory failure. Half of the patients will undergo drainage, while the other half will not unless their condition worsens to a prespecified degree. Outcomes include …
Preventing Cardiovascular Collapse With Vasopressors During Tracheal Intubation
Tracheal intubation (TI) is associated with a high risk of adverse events in critically ill patients and peri-intubation hemodynamic collapse is the most commonly observed. The primary aim of the PREVENTION trial is to compare the effect of the pre-emptive use of noradrenaline versus no peri-intubation use of noradrenaline on …
Exhaled Breath Condensate Analysis in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
Mechanically ventilated intensive care patients will be sampled for a small amount of exhaled breath condensate from the ventilator circuit and for venous blood. Proteomic analysis of the exhaled breath condensate will be performed using mass spectrometry and in the blood sample, corresponding changes in the DNA, RNA, proteins, and …
Structural Modification In Supraglottic Airway Device
The proposed A/Z modification of a supraglottic airway (SGA) incorporates an opening in the SGA body that enables access to the endotracheal tube (ETT) through the body of the SGA without the need of using an exchange catheter, thus enabling an ETT to move in the body of the SGA …
