Low and High Flow Suctioning in Intubated Infants
Preterm and term intubuted infants in the NICU will undergo two sequential suctioning procedures: a new, FDA-approved suction device called EXSALTA (ED) and the standard conventional wall (SCW). The physiological consequences, i.e. changes in heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), cerebral oxygenation (C-rSO2), and cerebral fractional oxygen extraction (C-FOE) between …
Diaphragmatic Physiology Similarity Index May Titrate HFNC Flow Setting: A Prospective Observational Study
Study Objective This prospective observational study aims to investigate the role of the Diaphragmatic Physiology Similarity Index (DPSI) derived from speckle tracking ultrasound in titrating high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) flow settings, and to evaluate its application in patients with acute respiratory failure. Primary Research Questions To characterize the features of …
Effects of PBMT-sMF in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of photobiomodulation therapy combined with static magnetic field (PBMT-sMF) in adult patients who require mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: (i) Does PBMT-sMF lower the length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) for …
Effects of High-flow Oxygen Therapy and Non-invasive Ventilation on Lung Volumes and on Upper Airway
Respiratory failure is the most frequent organ failure and cause for admission in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) . It is a severe complication with an ICU mortality ranged from 31% to 33%. Symptomatic treatment of hypoxemic respiratory failure is a controversial topic with different options: 1) standard oxygen therapy, …
Neural Pressure Support, Synchrony and Respiratory Muscle Unloading
In this study patients who are intubated and on ventilator for more than 24h will be ventilated at three different level of support in Pressure Support and Neural Pressure Support to study patient-ventilator synchrony and muscle unloading.
Closed-loop Synchronization Versus Conventional Synchronization
A prior research indicated that asynchrony between the patient and ventilator occurred in 33 percent of 19,175 breaths, and was seen in every patient. The most prevalent kind of asynchrony was ineffective triggering (68%), followed by delayed termination (19%), double triggering (4%) and premature termination (3%). Asynchrony between the patient …
Flow and Grow - The Ideal Time to Wean CPAP Off In Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants
Preterm neonates born at less than 30 weeks' gestation are commonly maintained on invasive or non-invasive respiratory support to facilitate gas exchange. While non-invasive respiratory support (NIS) can be gradually reduced over time as the infant grows, most weaning strategies often lead to weaning failure. This failure is evidenced by …
Global Physiotherapy in ICU Patients With High Risk Extubation Failure
This study aims to compare care provided by physiotherapists, combining respiratory care and early rehabilitation in intensive care unit, with standard care on the rate of acute respiratory failure within 7 days after extubation, in patients with high risk of extubation failure.
Closed Loop Oxygen Control in INtubated Critically Ill Patients
The deleterious effects of alveolar hyperoxia and (severe) hyperoxaemia are well described. Achieving safe and efficient oxygenation may be challenging. The hypothesis of the present study is that closed-loop oxygen control in intubated and mechanically ventilated critically ill patients improves oxygen administration compared with standard manual oxygen titrations. A single-blind, …
Platform of Randomized Adaptive Clinical Trials in Critical Illness
PRACTICAL PRACTICAL is a randomized multifactorial adaptive platform trial for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). This platform trial will evaluate novel interventions for patients with AHRF across a range of severity states (i.e., not intubated, intubated with lower or higher respiratory system elastance, requiring extracorporeal life support) and across a …
