Nasopharyngeal Carriage of S. Pneumoniae
This nasopharyngeal (NP) carriage surveillance study was requested by the European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products as a post-licensing commitment to determine whether the use of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) including 7 then 13 valents (introduced in 2001 and 2010, respectively) caused a shift in the distribution …
Lebanese Interhospital Pneumococcal Surveillance Program
Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a bacterium that causes severe infections in children and adults such as meningitis, pneumonia, and blood stream infection. There are many types of these bacteria defined by the type of sugar coat that they have. These are classified as serotypes. There are common serotypes that cause …
The APS Phenotyping Study
The goal of the observational APS phenotyping study is to better understand risk factors, potential biomarkers, length and severity of illness, and recovery for adults with ARDS, pneumonia, and/ or sepsis. This study will also generate a biobank of specimens collected from these patients that will be available to investigators …
High PEEP in Noninvasive Ventilation Patients With Pneumonia or ARDS
Noninvasive ventilation is commonly employed in patients with pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and has been shown to reduce the need for intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation. However, the rate of noninvasive ventilation failure remains substantial, at approximately 40%. Compared with patients in whom noninvasive ventilation succeeds, those …
Evaluation of Streptococcus Pneumoniae Serotypes Prevalence Using a Urinary Kit
This is an epidemiology study for the prevalence and serotypes of pneumococcus pneumoniae in hospitalized patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP). The serotypes of the pneumococcus pneumoniae will be determined by a urinary antigen assay. This is a single center, non-interventional observatory study.
Surviving Pneumonia
The study aims to explore risk factors for poor prognosis among patients admitted with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). During a 5-year study period, all patients (aged ≥ 18 years) admitted with CAP at North Zealand Hospital will be invited for inclusion. Questionnaires, anthropometric measures, laboratory tests, and biomaterials will be collected …
Natural History, Management, and Genetics of the Hyperimmunoglobulin E Recurrent Infection Syndrome (HIES)
The Hyper IgE Syndromes (HIES) are primary immunodeficiencies resulting in eczema and recurrent skin and lung infections. Autosomal dominant Hyper IgE syndrome (AD-HIIES; Job's syndrome) is caused by STAT3 mutations, and is a multi-system disorder with skeletal, vascular, and connective tissue manifestations. Understanding how STAT3 mutations cause these diverse clinical …
Practice of Oxygenation and Respiratory Support During Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy
The current practice of oxygenation and/or ventilation supports in patients undergoing Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy is very heterogeneous among studies published in the literature; in addition, clear outcomes advantages of one strategy over another currently lack. The goal of this observational study is to describe the current practice of oxygenation and/or ventilation …
Cough Capture as a Portal Into the Lung
The lung is a privileged organ; blood does not reflect most lung processes well, if at all. Therefore, for population scale diagnostics, the investigator team is developing non-invasive portals to the lung, for eventual early detection/risk assessment and diagnostic purposes. However, large macromolecules are not likely suspended nor readily detected …
RSV Burden in Outpatient and Hospital Settings
Strengthening outpatient low respiratory tract infection surveillance to document the burden of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
