Interest of the Chair Lift Test in the Prognostic Evaluation of Pulmonary Embolism: a Single-center Open Prospective Study
The objective of the study is to evaluate the prognostic performance of the chair lift test in the initial assessment of the severity of non-severe pulmonary embolism in hospitalized patients, in comparison with the current pulmonary embolism risk stratification score using the sPESI score refined by the use of cardiac …
Inorganic Nitrates in Intermediate High-risk Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition caused by blood clots blocking the blood vessels in the lungs. In some patients, PE leads to increased pressure in the lung circulation and strain on the right side of the heart. Patients with intermediate high-risk PE have signs of right heart stress …
Evaluation of the PERC Score and the YEARS Algorithm in the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism in the Emergency Department
The current diagnostic strategy for pulmonary embolism relies on clinical evaluation, followed by D-dimer testing and chest CT angiography. However, this approach leads to overuse of CT angiography. Diagnosis remains complex, with nonspecific clinical signs. Recent studies have explored new algorithms, such as the YEARS algorithm and the PERC score, …
ULTRAsound-assisted Catheter-guided Thrombolysis for Intermediate-high Risk Patients With PE
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening condition and a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality. While systemic thrombolysis is the standard treatment for high-risk PE, its bleeding risk limits use in some patients, highlighting the need for alternative reperfusion strategies such as catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT). This prospective study will evaluate the …
Optimal Time for Reperfusion in Acute Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third leading cause of cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Current guidelines recommend early reperfusion for high-risk and intermediate-high-risk PE, yet systemic thrombolysis and percutaneous therapies are frequently underutilized, and no specific timing for reperfusion is defined, unlike in acute myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke. As most PE-related …
129Xe MRI Cardiopulmonary
The goal of this NIH-sponsored study is to characterize three biomarkers derived from 129Xe gas exchange MRI and to understand how they change in response to interventions.
The Reducing REVISITS Study: A Cluster RCT
This type II hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial will concurrently study the comparative effectiveness of virtual vs. in-person COPD care transition programs implemented via virtual mentored implementation approaches with and without co-design methods. The investigators will enroll up to 24 randomized sites (with a goal minimum of 16 sites) to: Deliver the …
Implementation and Effectiveness of the BJC-Pink and Pearl Project on Lung Cancer Screening
The investigators proposal is ripe for executing as the investigators seek to leverage this "natural experiment" initiated by the BJC health system to evaluate the effectiveness of the Pink \& Pearl Campaign as an implementation strategy to promote lung cancer screening (LCS) uptake among LCS-eligible women undergoing mammography at BJC …
Clinical Trial of Telenursing for Monitoring Supportive Care Needs in Patients With Lung Cancer and Melanoma Candidates for the First Prescription of Targeted Therapies
Single-center, randomized clinical trial (RCT) with low intervention level (Telenursing), for the monitoring of patients affected by lung cancer and melanoma who are candidates for first prescription with Targeted Therapies. The study population will consist of patients suffering from lung cancer and melanoma. The objective of the study will be …
The Natural History and Biological Study of Pulmonary Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (pRRP)
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is an orphan disease that affects approximately 20,000 people in the United States and is caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11. Since RRP is an orphan disease, it is an understudied disease entity with correspondingly few treatment options. The investigators hypothesize …
