Precision Ventilation vs Standard Care for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
The goal of this interventional study is to compare standard mechanical ventilation to a lung-stress oriented ventilation strategy in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Participants will be ventilated according to one of two different strategies. The main question the study hopes to answer is whether the personalized ventilation …
Respiratory Knowledge Portal Computer and Phone Application to Improve Quality of Mechanical Ventilation by Reducing the Number of Ventilator Associated Events, Injury Created by the Ventilator and Unsafe Setting of Alarms.
Ventilator associated events (VAE) is a quality metric defined by 48 hours of stability followed by 48 hours of escalation of ventilator settings within the ICU. VAE have been associated with poor outcomes and increases the cost of care, yet is not easy to avoid. Operationalizing all the standards of …
The Evaluation of the Effectiveness and Safety of Nalbuphine Hydrochloride Injection for Analgesia in ICU Patients: A Multicenter, Randomized, Single-blinded, Parallel, Two-step Trial
The analgesic effect of nalbuphine hydrochloride injection will be evaluated in a multicenter, randomized, single-blind, parallel, positive-controlled approach in two steps: step 1, to explore the optimal dosage of nalbuphine hydrochloride injection with 2 experimental arms and 1 positive control and step 2, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of …
Noninvasive Ventilation Facemasks Favoring Carbon Dioxide Washout
The objective of this randomized cross-over trial is to assess the physiological effects of three different facemasks for noninvasive ventilation (Nivairo, Visairo, Optiniv) in patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure
Doxapram Therapy in Preterm Infants (DOXA Trial)
Preterm infants often suffer from apnea of prematurity (AOP; a cessation of breathing) due to immaturity of the respiratory system. AOP can lead to oxygen shortage and a low heart rate which might harm the development of the newborn, especially the central nervous system. In order to prevent oxygen shortage, …
Home Versus Hospital Based NIV Care in MND
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly offered to people with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) who have breathing difficulties. It improves their quality of life and can prolong life by 6 months or more. It is initially used at night and typically set up during a hospital admission. By the time that …
The Effect of Hyperoxia on Ventilation During Recovery From General Anesthesia
In this randomized-controlled trial the investigators will examine the effect of oxygen supplementation on the recovery of breathing for 90 minutes in the immediate post-anesthesia period starting from extubation of the trachea.
Initiation of Noninvasive Ventilation in ALS Patients With Chronic Respiratory Insufficiency
This research will study whether noninvasive ventilation (NIV) used to treat chronic respiratory insufficiency in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) can be initiated as successfully in the outpatient setting as in the conventional inpatient setting, and what the costs of these alternative initiation methods are.
Closed-Loop O2 Use During High Flow Oxygen Treatment of Critical Care Adult Patients (CLOUDHFOT)
High flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO) is an established modality in the supportive treatment of patients suffering from acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. The high humidified gas flow supports patient's work of breathing, reduces dead space ventilation, and improves functional residual capacity while using an unobtrusive patient's face interface [Mauri et …
Dexmedetomidine vs Propofol in High-Risk ERCP Patients
ERCP requires deep sedation due to pain and discomfort, but propofol-commonly used with opioids-often causes respiratory and cardiovascular complications, especially in elderly or high-risk patients. Dexmedetomidine offers sedation without respiratory depression but may lower blood pressure and heart rate. Current monitoring often relies only on SpO₂, while capnography and the …
