About 10% of patients admitted to the ICU suffer from ARDS, with a mortality rate of around 35-45%. The lack of therapeutic innovation in ARDS can be partly explained by the heterogeneity of patients included under this definition. A better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the different patient phenotypes …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and life-threatening condition in intensive care units, characterized by substantial biological and clinical heterogeneity. Differences in patients' inflammatory responses, baseline immune function, and organ failure patterns contribute to variability in ARDS severity, treatment response, and clinical outcomes. Precision classification of ARDS based …
This is a 28-week, single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial evaluating the combination of Tirzepatide and remote, supervised, tailored resistance exercise training to achieve weight loss in adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) living with obesity or overweight with comorbidity. Primary Objective(s): • To evaluate the effectiveness for …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome accounts for 23% of mechanically ventilated patients and is associated with high mortality rate. Although life-saving, mechanical ventilation may worsen lung injury through two main mechanisms: lung overdistension and atelectrauma. Indeed, the cyclic opening and closure of airways during tidal ventilation may cause lung and bronchial …
Spontaneous breathing during the transition from controlled to assisted ventilation in ARDS may be harmful, as high respiratory drive can generate large transpulmonary pressure swings and worsen lung injury. Higher PEEP may mitigate this by reducing inspiratory effort and lung stress, but patient response is variable and difficult to predict. …
This study was conducted to determine the effect of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell (UC-MSC) and Secretome in severe ARDS patients. The study is a randomized control trial - double blind, which has 3 arms intervention namely, Control treatment, UC-MSC treatment, and UC-MSC and Secretome treatment.
This is a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled aprotinin in adult patients with moderate or severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). A total of 156 critically ill patients admitted to intensive care units will be randomized to receive …
The early phase of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by intense alveolar inflammation. Corticosteroids have been used to treat ARDS for decades. Although their efficacy has been a subject of ongoing controversy, recent clinical practice guidelines for ARDS issued a weak recommendation in favor of corticosteroid use in …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of bronchial blockers and double-lumen tubes in achieving one-lung ventilation in obese patients undergoing lung resections. The primary question it aims to answer is: • Is intraoperative hypoxia significantly different depending on the device used? Researchers will compare the …
This pilot phase I/II trial studies how well a continuous positive airway pressure device or deep inspiration breath hold works in reducing tumor movement in patients undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for lung cancer. The continuous positive airway pressure device works by blowing air into the lungs while patients …
