Respiratory Functions, Thoracoabdominal Movements and Exercise Capacity in Neuromuscular Diseases
The clinical trial titled "Investigation of Respiratory Functions, Thoracoabdominal Movements, and Exercise Capacity in Neuromuscular Diseases" aims to evaluate the respiratory functions, thoracoabdominal movements, and exercise capacity in children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) compared to healthy controls. The study will use spirometry, structured light …
Inhaled Nitric Oxide for the Treatment of Neonatal Hypoxic Respiratory Failure With Pulmonary Hypertension
This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicenter Phase IV clinical study to evaluate the safety of INOmax for the treatment of hypoxic respiratory failure with pulmonary hypertension in newborns (≥ 34 weeks gestational age). To evaluate the safety of INOmax combined with ventilatory support in the treatment of neonatal (≥ …
Prospective Cohort of Patients With Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease Admitted for Acute Respiratory Failure
This prospective, multicenter study focuses on patients with fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD) admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) for acute respiratory failure (ARF). ILD encompasses a group of heterogeneous disorders characterized by progressive fibrotic and inflammatory damage to the lung interstitium, often resulting in chronic respiratory failure. Acute respiratory …
Effect of Alcohol and Drugs of Abuse on Immune Function in Critically Ill Patients With Respiratory Failure
This study plans to learn more about people who are sick in the hospital with a lung infection, or respiratory failure. Respiratory failure, or severe lung failure, is a life-threatening disease. When it happens, the lungs have trouble carrying out their normal function of getting oxygen into the blood, and …
Retrospective Cohort Study of Low-Flow Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal (ECCO2R) System: Evaluating ECCO2R's Efficacy and Safety in Participants With Respiratory Failure
This is an observational study performed by retrospective review of data routinely collected for patients receiving low-flow extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) therapy in intensive care units (ICUs). Our aim is to firstly, describe the local practice in terms of patient selection and technical details of clinical management related to …
Airway Closure During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: The AiCLOSE Study
About 65,000 Canadians develop acute respiratory failure requiring breathing machines (ventilators) to give oxygen to their lungs. Unfortunately, up to 50% of these individuals will not survive their illness. Mechanical ventilation through breathing machines, though potentially lifesaving, may further injure the lungs and the respiratory muscles. In the patients with …
Pressure Muscle Index and Threshold of Over-assistance During Pressure Support Ventilation
Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is used to assist the breathing of the intubated patient with some pressure from the ventilator. This support aims at avoiding excessive inspiratory effort, while ensuring a certain degree of training of the patient's inspiratory muscle. Avoiding both minimal and excessive assistance is thus important for …
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing and Oscillometry for the Evaluation of Dyspnea
This study will determine if airway resistance to airflow and pressure, measured by Oscillometry, is associated with abnormal findings on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in subjects who are experiencing shortness of breath.
OxyGap : Comparison Between Different Pulse Oximeter and With the Arterial Blood Gase
The oximeter is used to monitor intensive care patients undergoing oxygen therapy. It indicates pulsed oxygen saturation (SpO2), a reflection of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) which enables detection of hypoxemia and hyperoxia, both deleterious state. Current SpO2 recommendations aim to reduce both risk of hypoxemia and hyperoxia. SpO2 is considered …
Comparison of Pulse Oximetry (SpO2) With Different Oximeters and Arterial Saturation (SaO2): Oxygap2 Study
The oximeter is used to monitor intensive care patients undergoing oxygen therapy. It indicates pulsed oxygen saturation (SpO2), a reflection of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) which enables detection of hypoxemia and hyperoxia, both deleterious state. Current SpO2 recommendations aim to reduce both risk of hypoxemia and hyperoxia. SpO2 is considered …
