A Study on the Treatment of Patients With Acute Lung Injury Caused by Sepsis Through Microbiota Transplantation
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome triggered by infection, and it is a common critical illness in clinical practice, often leading to multiple organ dysfunction. Among these, acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are among the most severe complications. The mortality rate of sepsis-related lung …
Anti-CD14 Treatment With IC14 in Hospitalized ARDS Patients
Hospitalized patients with ARDS will be randomized to intravenous treatment with a monoclonal antibody against CD14, called IC14, or placebo. They will be followed for 28 days. The primary outcome is the day 4 oxygenation index assessed as a continuous measure.
Prone Positioning and Abdominal Binding on Lung and Muscle Protection in ARDS Patients During Spontaneous Breathing
Ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction and intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness are two consequences of prolonged mechanical ventilation and critical illness in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Both complicate the process of withdrawing mechanical ventilation, increase hospital mortality and cause chronic disability in survivors. During transition from controlled to spontaneous …
Ultra-protective Ventilation Monitored by Electrical Impedance Tomography in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Veno-venous ECMO
For ECMO supported patients with severe ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome), usual care include use of "ultraprotective" mechanical ventilation with tidal volume and pressure reductions that might ultimately enhance lung protection of patients with ARDS. Although very low tidal might also cause pulmonary derecruitment. The aim of this study is …
Inhaled Dornase Alpha to Reduce Respiratory Failure After Severe Trauma
Severe hypoxemia following trauma may happen in many circumstances (aspiration, ventilation-associated pneumonia, lung contusion...), most of which are not exclusively associated with a direct injury to the lungs. Severe trauma and associated musculoskeletal injuries result in the acute release of Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs) in plasma, many of which are …
Pilot Study on HA380 Column Use in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Extracorporeal Support.
Patients who are very ill either due to a severe infection, major organ injury, trauma or a major operation may require significant support with devices such as a dialysis machine for the kidneys or Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) for the heart and lungs. This is often due to a reaction …
Electroacupuncture Modulates SPMs Metabolism and Respiratory Symptoms in Patients With Sepsis Complicating ARDS
In this interventional clinical trial, researchers will administer electroacupuncture versus sham electroacupuncture to sepsis patients with ARDS and collect objective outcome measures. The study will be divided into 2 groups. The EA group will receive electroacupuncture and the SHAM-EA group will receive sham electroacupuncture. The purpose of this study is …
Contribution of Transthoracic and Transcranial Ultrasonography to the Titration of PEEP in Patients With ARDS and ABI
The present study will investigate whether the combined use of lung and brain ultrasonography is useful in selecting the optimal positive end-expiratory pressure in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute brain injury, aiming at an individualized, brain-protective ventilation strategy.
High-Frequency Oscillation Ventilation Versus Conventional Mechanical Ventilation in Very Preterm Infants With Perinatal Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Multicenters Randomized Controlled, Superiority Trial
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a complex disorder and remains the most common complication in very preterm infants. Its incidence is increased with gestational age from 95.5% among infants born at 22 weeks' gestation to 22.2% among those born at 29 weeks' gestation. BPD is associated with the increased risks of …
Comparison of Different Methods to Calculate Pendelluft by Electrical Impedance Tomography in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
The Pendelluft phenomenon is an important cause of lung damage in spontaneously breathing mechanically ventilated patients since it considerably increases the stress on the lung parenchyma in the dependent areas. It can result in a local driving pressure up to three times higher than the global driving pressure. The measurement …
