Sedation is frequently required in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), including those receiving non-invasive respiratory support such as high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), non-invasive ventilation (NIV), or conventional oxygen therapy. Anxiety, agitation, dyspnea, and poor tolerance of respiratory support may compromise treatment adherence and increase the …
The Hospital Airway Resuscitation Trial (HART) is a cluster-randomized, pragmatic trial of advanced airway management with a strategy of first choice supraglottic airway vs. first choice endotracheal intubation during in-hospital cardiac arrest.
Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) is a high-risk procedure in the emergency department (ED). Patients are routinely preoxygenated (given supplemental oxygen) prior to RSI to prevent hypoxia during intubation. For many years anaesthetists have used end-tidal oxygen (ETO2) levels to guide the effectiveness of preoxygenation prior to intubation. The ETO2 gives …
De novo hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (hARF) is one of the main causes of intensive care unit (ICU) admission. In de novo hARF, intubation is associated with a dramatic increase in mortality rate. Compared to standard oxygen, the use of high-flow oxygen nasal cannula (HFNC) might be beneficial to prevent …
This prospective cross-sectional study aims to develop and validate a machine learning model that combines chest X-ray findings with arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis to assess the necessity for mechanical ventilation in critically ill adult patients. Conducted at Zagazig University Hospitals, the study seeks to improve clinical decision-making by integrating …
Liberation from mechanical ventilation involves three steps: weaning, readiness assessment, and extubation. Readiness is determined using clinical criteria such as improvement of the underlying condition, hemodynamic stability, and adequate respiratory effort. Successful extubation is defined as not requiring invasive support within 48 hours. Due to the complexity of ICU patients, …
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 …
The Taiwan Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) Multi-center Investigation and Registry aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease. This prospective observational registry will collect comprehensive clinical data from multiple centers, including epidemiological information, comorbidities, questionnaire results, routine blood tests, biochemical tests, pulmonary function tests, echocardiograms, …
ECMO is associated with significant costs, risks and requires specialist training and expertise. EXCEL is a novel, high-quality, detailed prospective registry of patients requiring ECMO in Australia and New Zealand. The registry provides information on patient selection, complications, costs and patient reported outcome measures. EXCEL uses the Theoretical Domains Framework …
Extracorporeal life support (ECLS), also known as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), is an extracorporeal technique of providing effective cardiac and respiratory support to patients with lungs and/or heart failure. There was a growth in ECLS cases, centers, and center scale in China during the past decade. This multi-center registry was …
