Biomarkers of Dementia in Chronic Sleep and Breathing Disorders
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and overlap syndrome are associated with obstructions in breathing and disturbed sleep. Chronic breathing disruptions and poor sleep may lead to cognitive impairment and brain changes linked with early neurodegenerative processes. As such, identifying early markers of cognitive impairment and dementia …
ILD-SARDs Registry and Biorepository
A complex interaction between demographic, environmental and genetic mechanisms impact the onset, severity and outcome of ILD-SARDs through dysregulation of the immune system and lung pro-biotic pathways. Comorbidity and genetic risk indicate that there are overlapping pathogenic mechanisms among SARDs, some of which underlie ILD in different SARDs. The purpose …
Ultrasound for Postop Lung Issues in Low-Flow Anesthesia
Detecting possible atelectasis and other respiratory problems that may develop immediately after extubation via lung ultrasonography can reduce pulmonary complications by performing necessary interventions such as oxygen support, respiratory exercises, mobilization, and non-invasive mechanical ventilation applications at an early stage. In addition, although low-flow anesthesia is frequently used in daily …
Doxapram Administration on Diaphragmatic Excursion in Mechanically Ventilated Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Undergoing Spontaneous Breathing Trial
Researchers aim to evaluate the impact of doxapram administration on diaphragmatic excursion in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients undergoing spontaneous breathing trial
Study of Inflammatory and Physiological Profiles of Healthy and Diseased Lung
There are over 700,000 UK hospital admissions every year with lung disease symptoms. Two of the most common lung diseases contributing to these numbers are asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The immunopathology of these diseases is not fully understood. Matched samples from the respiratory tract and circulation will …
High Resolution Micro OCT Imaging
The purpose of this study is to learn about using the imaging to make images of the lungs and nose with the long-term goal of the research leading to potential treatments and new therapies for patients with cystic fibrosis.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation for COPD Patients: Can Performance Predict Exacerbation?
The aim of pulmonary rehabilitation is to improve exercise capacity and reduce dyspnoea. As well as improving the patient's overall condition, pulmonary rehabilitation provides a means to monitor the patient regularly. During physical exercise, the increased activity of the muscle system increases cardiac and respiratory output. If the patient's respiratory …
Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Emergency Department Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in …
Ultrasound-assisted, Catheter-directed Thrombolysis for Acute Intermediate-high-risk Pulmonary Embolism
The purpose of this retrospective and prospective multicenter study is to evaluate the incidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) within 6 months from ultrasound-assisted, Catheter-directed Thrombolysis for acute intermediate- high-risk Pulmonary Embolism
ALN OATF Vena Cava Filter
Migration of a thrombus in the pulmonary circulation is the leading cause of pulmonary embolism (PE). It can be prevented mechanically by implanting a vena cava filter (VCF) in the inferior vena cava. The implation of a VCF is indicated for patients with acute PE and a contraindication to anticoagulation, …
