Acute hypoxemic de novo respiratory failure (AHRF) is a common cause of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Its main cause is community-acquired pneumonia. Prevention of intubation relies, among other things, on high-flow nasal canulae (HFNC). However, approximately 40% of patients are intubated despite HFNC. Our team has developed …
This is a cross sectional case controlled study to assess lung microbiome and inflammation in smokers with and without Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Investigators will look at active bacterial metabolic pathways in the lower airways using metagenomic and metabolomic approaches an assess relationships among microbiome, metagenome, metabolome and host …
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the impact of lung ultrasound morphology patterns on treatment response and weaning outcomes in high-risk mechanically ventilated patients. The study will be conducted in the intensive care unit (ICU) and will include patients who have been on mechanical ventilation for over 24 hours, …
This study evaluates how common insomnia (difficulties with sleep) is in patients with lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body.
Rationale COPD is a severe, often progressive and currently incurable lung disease which affects both the upper airways (chronic bronchitis) as well as the lower airways (emphysema). In advanced stages of the disease air-trapping severely reduces the ability to breathe and subsequently the quality of life. A highly effective treatment …
The goal of this observational study is to describe the prevalence of germ line-pathogenic variants in Mexican patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the prevalence of pathogenic variants in genes associated with lung adenocarcinoma in Mexican patients younger than fifty? Which clinical-pathological …
Central-type lung cancer refers to lung malignancies originating from the segmental bronchi and above. The most common tissue type is squamous cell carcinoma. Patients often present with cough, hemoptysis, hoarseness and also some critical conditions including superior vena caval obstruction syndrome. Therefore, effective treatment should be implemented as early as …
LTx has the shortest survival of all solid organ transplants. The complex and time-demanding diagnostics of allograft dysfunction are a significant reason for this. The current study aims overarchingly to improve survival after lung transplantation (LTx) through precise and fast diagnostics. The specific aim is to develop direct-to-clinical implementation biomarkers …
The goal of this observational study is to determine if Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) improves lung compliance in children receiving conventional invasive mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does IPV improve lung compliance 15 minutes after and 3 hours after receiving one treatment in a heterogeneous …
The objective of this study is to evaluate the role of the neonatologist-performed lung ultrasound (NPLUS) during immediate transition after birth of late preterm and full-term neonates using the lung ultrasound score to predict the need of respiratory support persisting more than 1 hour after birth.
