Plasma and Radiologic Biomarkers of Response to ECP in Lung Transplant Recipients With CLAD
This study is for people who have had a lung transplant and developed a condition called chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), which is a type of chronic rejection. Doctors often treat CLAD with a procedure called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), but it can take up to six months to know if …
How Different Levels of CPAP Affect Oxygen Delivery and Lung Expansion in Preterm Infants
With this study, it is expected to learn more about preterm babies on breathing support with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP). To gain more information on how much oxygen is actually delivered to the baby from the nCPAP machine.
High Flow Nasal Cannulae vs Venturi Mask in Respiratory Failure Due to Pneumonia
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of treatment with HFNC (group A) compared to administration of oxygen therapy by Venturi mask (group B, standard therapy) in terms of reaching of endotracheal intubation criteria during acute respiratory failure due to severe pneumonia. Inclusion Criteria: Respiratory rate …
Study of Progression of Community Acquired Pneumonia in the Hospital in Patients With More Severe Preexisting Diseases and Immunosuppression
Pneumonia is a common infectious disease of the lung, often requiring treatment in the hospital. Clinical scoring systems are available, identifying patients not requiring hospitalization. However, the course of disease of patients in the hospital remains hard to predict. While most patients will recover quickly, some will, despite appropriate treatment, …
Trial of Venovenous ECMO to De-Sedate, Extubate and Mobilise in Hypoxic Respiratory Failure
To determine whether a strategy of adding venovenous ECMO to mechanical ventilation, as compared to mechanical ventilation alone, increases the number of intensive care free days at day 60, in patients with moderate to severe acute hypoxic respiratory failure.
Xanthohumol as an Adjuvant in the Treatment of Septic Shock
Septic shock (SS) is a life-threatening condition resulting from excessive inflammatory response to bacterial, viral or/and fungal infections. It is associated with dysregulation of the immune system, activation of immune cells, and massive release of cytokines, commonly known as the cytokine storm (CS). The clinical manifestations of SS depend on …
Evaluation of the Relevance of Diaphragmatic Stroke Ultrasound for the Etiological Diagnosis of Acute Respiratory Distress in an Emergency Department.
The goal of this Prospective interventional multicenter diagnostic study is to investigate the use of diaphragmatic ultrasound (DE) as a diagnostic tool in an adult emergency department for patients in acute respiratory distress. The main question it aims to answer is to evaluate the relevance of measuring the Sum of …
Validation of Hematological Indices
The hypothesis of the study is that hematological indices (neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, platelet to lymphocyte ratio and systemic index of inflammation) may be predictors of infectious complications and multiple organ dysfunction in patients after cardiac surgery.
Electrical Impedance Tomography for Assessment of Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is a serious and progressive disease that is difficult to treat and diagnose, mainly because its symptoms are nonspecific and often delay recognition. Early diagnosis is a major challenge. Although several tests may suggest the disease, the definitive diagnosis still requires right heart catheterization, an invasive procedure that …
FEED-Cystic Fibrosis (FEED-CF)
The goal of this study is to determine the extent to which excess dietary sugars serve as a precipitating factor in glucose intolerance in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), a population at especially high risk for a unique form of diabetes (CF-related diabetes, CFRD) and with standard-of-care dietary recommendations (high-calorie, …
