Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare disease, caused by impairment of the motile cilia. Patients present with chronic upper and lower respiratory tract infections. The therapy is mainly supportive and based on that of cystic fibrosis. Chest physiotherapy is one of the cornerstones of the therapy, however the influence …
In intensive care, respiratory physiotherapy is an integral part of the daily care of patients under invasive mechanical ventilation. Its goals are to improve the clearance of bronchial secretions to allow for the resolution of atelectasis and alveolar recruitment, thereby enhancing respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. The most widespread technique …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the optimal sequence of EGFR-inhibitors in lung cancer patients with EGFR-positive tumors not amenable for curative treatment. Life quality, adverse effects and tumor response will be evaluated and analyses of obtained blood and tumor samples will be performed to identify molecular profiles …
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term effects of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in patients with lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does pneumonectomy bring more benefits for pateints than lobectomy? Does surgery bring more benefits for patients than non-surgery modalities (such as …
The goal of this single-centre observational study conducted at the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow, Scotland, is to employ a multi-omics approach to investigate the "gut-lung axis" in health and disease. Part A is a cross-sectional study design investigating the postulated bidirectional link between the gut and lung microbiomes …
The overall purpose of this study is to characterise the clinical safety and performance of the Creo Medical MicroBlate™ Flex AB1 instrument in patients with pathologically confirmed malignancy eligible for surgical resection of their nodule, receiving bronchoscopic ablation prior to surgery.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality, posing a critical public health challenge in both Hong Kong and global populations. Patients with lung cancer frequently experience a distressing symptom cluster characterized by breathlessness-driven respiratory distress, accompanied by persistent cough and fatigue, which collectively impose a substantial disease burden. …
The goal of this clinical trial (non-pharmacologic, single-center) is to determine whether the Hering-Breuer inflation reflex is preserved-and how it is modulated by end-expiratory pressure-in adult intensive-care patients who have undergone bilateral lung transplantation. The study will enroll men and women ≥ 18 years admitted to the ICU during the …
To investigate the safety and effectiveness of preoperative aerosol inhalation ICG solution for thoracoscopic accurate resection of congenital lung malformations in children.
The main objective is to identify and assess the predictive value of ageing and senescence biomarkers (methylome, telomeres, inflammageing) and senescent cells in tissues to improve prognosis assessment older patients with locally or locally-advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
