Open Lung Protective Extubation Following General Anesthesia
Perioperative respiratory complications are a major source of morbidity and mortality. Postoperative atelectasis plays a central role in their development. Protective "open lung" mechanical ventilation aims to minimize the occurrence of atelectasis during the perioperative period. Randomized controlled studies have been performed comparing various "open lung" ventilation protocols, but these …
Macrophage Programing in Acute Lung Injury: MiniBAL
The goal of this observational clinical trial is to learn about the role white blood cells (macrophages) play in lung inflammation in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The main questions it aims to answer are: How does the immune system respond to different kinds of lung injury and …
Personalized Accelerated ChEmoRadiation (PACER) for Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to examine the use of hypofractionated accelerated radiation therapy (HART) to treat locally advanced lung cancer. Depending on the location and size of the tumor.
Macrophage Regulation of Ozone-Induced Lung Inflammation
The purpose of this research study to understand how prior respiratory infections affect the susceptibility to lung inflammation following environmental exposures.
Repositioning Immunotherapy in VetArans With Lung Cancer
This study is a multicenter Phase II single arm trial to assess the safety and efficacy of chemotherapy and immunotherapy followed by radiotherapy in patients with unresectable Stage III NSCLC.
Tribally Engaged Approaches to Lung Screening (TEALS)
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality among American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN), and AI/AN have worse lung cancer incidence rates, survival, and death compared to the general population. Because lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) has been shown to reduce lung cancer mortality …
CMV Immunity Monitoring in Lung Transplant Recipients
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of using a laboratory test to guide duration of antiviral prophylaxis with valganciclovir (medication used to prevent viral infections) after lung transplant. The laboratory test, inSIGHT™ CMV T Cell Immunity Panel, measures patients' immune response to a common …
Transthoracic vs Transbronchial Ablation for Lung Cancer
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of transthoracic versus transbronchial ablation in the treatment of early stage peripheral lung cancer.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Advanced Lung Cancer Survivors
This study is for people who have previously been diagnosed with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many people with advanced stage NSCLC have trouble breathing and feel tired. People may be eligible for this study if they have advanced stage NSCLC and feel short of breath some of …
Inspiratory Muscle Training in Lung Transplant Candidates
Recovery after lung transplantation (LTx) may be complicated by prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) and protracted intensive care unit (ICU) stay leading to immobilization and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In the critical care setting, diaphragm atrophy and weakness have been associated with difficulty weaning from MV, increased risk for …
