Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related death in the UK, with over 35,000 deaths annually and most cases diagnosed at a late stage. Current screening programmes using low-dose CT scans target only high-risk individuals, missing around 30% of lung cancer cases, including many women and never-smokers. There is …
This study evaluates the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of using a blood-based liquid biopsy assay as a pre-screening tool before low-dose CT (LDCT) for lung cancer screening. By identifying individuals unlikely to have lung cancer, this approach aims to reduce unnecessary LDCT scans, radiation exposure, and healthcare costs, while improving early …
The aim of this study is to determine if erector spinae injections with bolus infusions with local anesthetic decrease postsurgical pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing pulmonary resection surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using an incentive spirometer can reduce lung problems in people with advanced lung cancer who are receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does using an incentive spirometer lower the chances of developing …
Objective: The aim of this study was to detect the impact of low intensity laser therapy on immune system response among DS children with pneumonia. Material and Methods: Forty DS children with bronchopneumonia, were included into ; group (A) received low intensity laser therapy, inspiratory muscle training in addition to …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding intrapulmonary percussion ventilation (IPV) to standard airway clearance treatment improves clinical outcomes in invasively mechanically ventilated patients with pulmonary infection. It will also evaluate the safety of IPV in this population and assess changes in lung ventilation using electrical …
There's no unified recommendation in clinical practice regarding adjusting dosages for different patient types, especially when adverse events occur. While rivaroxaban typically doesn't require coagulation monitoring, in elderly patients, particularly those with multiple medications, finding appropriate lab indicators becomes crucial to gauge its anticoagulant effect. This aids in evaluating precise …
Create a clinical diagnostic pathway for older ED adults with pneumonia and its subgroups (bacterial, viral, and co-infection) and determine whether novel biomarkers improve diagnostic accuracy. The investigators will conduct a prospective observational trial of 250 ED patients ≥65 years old with suspected pneumonia. The investigators will perform analyses overall …
To determine if clinicians can safely reduce antibiotic exposure in children with medical complexity (CMC) who are diagnosed with pneumonia by implementing an intervention that bases total antibiotic duration on an individual's clinical stability.
Pneumonia is the inflammation of lung parenchyma involving lungs alveoli and is a leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections and deaths around the globe and the number rises greatly after the Covid-19 pandemic. The Symptoms of Pneumonia is cough, fever, dyspnea, myalgia, altered blood gas ratio, and mental alteration. …
