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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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.
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 …
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 …
Babies born early (under 32 weeks) are at risk of developing lung problems after birth. A major reason for this is that the lungs are not fully developed. Lungs of preterm babies will often collapse in between breathing due to lung immaturity. Applying gentle pressure, using nasal device through their …
Sarcoma which has spread to the lungs is most often treated with surgery. Even with surgery, most patients will not be cured and will die from their disease, probably because of small cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, but cannot be seen or …
Abnormalities of the lungs are common in newborns and can include aspiration or infectious pneumonia, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), pulmonary hypertension (PH), congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), and other abnormalities of lung development. Diagnostic radiography is commonly used in this population to differentiate diagnosis and to assess changes …
