Characterization of Fetal Lung With Quantitative Ultrasound
The purpose of the study is to show if it's possible to use a special kind of ultrasound called backscatter quantitative ultrasound (bQUS) to check on a baby's lungs when the mother is 36 weeks pregnant. 16 participants will be on study for a single 30 minute ultrasound between 32 …
Prehabilitation for Patients Undergoing Lung Cancer Surgery
Major surgery has been linked to running a marathon as in both represent large endeavours where the body will experience an increase in demands to supply the necessary energy. It has been alledged that, as one would train to prepare for a marathon, the same should be applied to surgery. …
Inspiratory Muscle Training in Lung Transplant Candidates
Recovery after lung transplantation (LTx) may be complicated by prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) and protracted intensive care unit (ICU) stay leading to immobilization and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In the critical care setting, diaphragm atrophy and weakness have been associated with difficulty weaning from MV, increased risk for …
CMV Immunity Monitoring in Lung Transplant Recipients
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of using a laboratory test to guide duration of antiviral prophylaxis with valganciclovir (medication used to prevent viral infections) after lung transplant. The laboratory test, inSIGHT™ CMV T Cell Immunity Panel, measures patients' immune response to a common …
CPRIT: Patient Adherence to Lung Cancer Screening
To understand participants' barriers to lung cancer screening and their experience with scheduling lung cancer screening.
Macrophage Programing in Acute Lung Injury: MiniBAL
The goal of this observational clinical trial is to learn about the role white blood cells (macrophages) play in lung inflammation in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The main questions it aims to answer are: How does the immune system respond to different kinds of lung injury and …
Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) in Lung Resections
Perioperative hypotension is a risk factor for perioperative complications. Advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have produced an algorithm that predicts the occurrence of hypotension episodes by analyzing an arterial pressure waveform. This technology has not been validated in thoracic surgical patients undergoing lung resections with the use of …
Digital Lifestyle Intervention for Lung Cancer Survivors
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of a digital lifestyle intervention in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) survivors on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over three months.
CT-guided Lung Biopsy Risk Optimization Method
The purpose of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the extent to which injection of a small amount of fluid in the pleural cavity at the biopsy site may reduce the risk of pneumothoraces, in addition to patient positioning to allow biopsy in gravity-dependent areas of the lung.
Intercostal Cryoanalgesia in Double Lung Transplant Recipients
This study is testing a new way to help manage pain after a double lung transplant. Instead of relying only on strong pain medicines like opioids, doctors will use a cold-therapy probe during surgery to help numb the nerves near the incision. Researchers want to see if this method can …
