Height Measurement Procedures Influence the Risk of Ventilator-induced Lung Injury in ARDS
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is characterized by heterogeneous lung injury, with dependent regions often collapsed and non-dependent regions relatively well-aerated, forming the so called "baby lung." Mechanical ventilation, while essential, can induce additional lung injury (VILI) via overdistension (baro/volutrauma) or repetitive alveolar collapse (atelectrauma). Protective ventilation strategies with low tidal …
Effects of Periodic Recruitment Maneuvers on Atelectasis and Respiratory Mechanics During Elective Spine Surgery Assessed by Lung Ultrasonography
During general anesthesia, particularly in patients undergoing spine surgery in the prone (face-down) position, increased intrathoracic and abdominal pressure may reduce lung compliance and promote the development of atelectasis (partial lung collapse). Atelectasis can impair intraoperative oxygenation and may increase the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARM) …
Automated Oxygen Administration in Patients With Hypoxemic Pneumonia and Pleuropneumonia
Hypoxemic pneumonia is a major cause of hospitalization in Pulmonology. The patient's dependency on oxygen prevents early discharge from the hospital. An automated oxygen therapy is a system that allows administration of oxygen with a flow that is automatically adjusted to the patient's saturation, which is continuously monitored. This system …
Physiological Effects and Safety of Continuous High-frequency Oscillatory Ventilation in Mechanical Ventilation Patients
Mechanical ventilation is an important treatment modality for intensive care unit (ICU) patients, but it also brings a series of problems such as ventilator-associated pneumonia, ventilator-induced lung injury, and atelectasis. Continuous High-Frequency Oscillation (CHFO )is often considered to have a protective effect on the lungs. CHFO provides effective gas exchange …
iNO300 Therapy in Critically Ill Patients With Pneumonia
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the formation and recovery rate of methemoglobin (MetHb) in severely sick patients with pneumonia who receive high doses of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) therapy at 250 parts per million (ppm), not exceeding 300 ppm. Meanwhile, the benefits of the therapy to …
Utility of Bronchoscopy in Patients With Haemoptysis and Negative Chest CT Scan (ULYSSES)
Conflicting evidence exist in the literature on the utility of bronchoscopy in patients with haemoptysis and negative/non-diagnostic chest CT scan. The primary aim of this prospective, observational, multicenter study is to evaluate the utility of bronchoscopy in patients with haemoptysis and negative/non-diagnostic CT scans. Secondary aims are related to the …
A National Registry For Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis
The major goal of Part A of this study is to establish a National PAP Registry to help make reliable new research tests available to doctors to improve the diagnosis of PAP, increase awareness and knowledge of PAP, and give patients a 'seat at the table' in planning and conducting …
Trunk Inclination, Positive End-expiratory Pressure, and Lung Recruitability
This multicenter, physiological, observational study hypothesizes that in moderate to severe ARDS, trunk inclination unloads the chest wall, but its impact on lung mechanics depends on PEEP levels and lung recruitability.
Cadherin 3(CDH3)-Targeted PET in Lung Malignant Tumors
Lung malignant tumors are a significant health threat with high incidence and mortality rates, and molecular imaging is crucial for early diagnosis, staging, prognosis evaluation, and therapeutic efficacy assessment. 18F-FDG PET imaging is widely used, but has limitations. CDH3 is a promising target for tumor-targeted imaging, as it is only …
Concomitant Use of Radiotherapy and Integrated Exercise - Lung Cancer
Study objective and procedures The objective of CURIE-LC is to evaluate the feasibility (i.e., whether it is possible and safe) of carrying out a comprehensive exercise program during combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with lung cancer. The study will assess whether patients can adhere to the exercise program while …
