The Efficacy of P0.1-guided Sedation Protocol in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Invasive Mechanical Ventilation: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of sedation protocol targeting optimal respiratory drive using P0.1 and arousal level compared with conventional sedation strategy (targeting arousal level alone) in patients requiring mechanical ventilation in the medical intensive care unit.
A Study to Evaluate the Safety of a Delivery Device for Administering LCTOPC1 in Participants With Spinal Cord Injury
The DOSED clinical study evaluates the safety and utility of a novel delivery device to deliver LCTOPC1, a cell therapy, to the spinal cord of patients with a spinal cord injury (SCI). LCTOPC1 is designed to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to traumatic injury, with …
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 …
UltrasouNd-guided Percutaneous Intercostal Nerve Cryoneurolysis for Analgesia Following Traumatic Rib Fracture
Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality …
Clinical Utility of Portable Dynamic Chest X Ray (DDR) in the ICU
Dynamic digital radiography (DDR) is a new advanced version of chest radiography that captures dynamic images at a rate of 15 frames per second. It is coupled with an analytical software that allows it to provide more advanced measures of lung motion, ventilation, and perfusion compared to traditional chest radiography. …
ThoRAciC Trauma IntubatiON Risk Score for Blunt Trauma
The primary objective of this study is the evaluation of risk factors associated with orotracheal intubation in blunt chest trauma patients not intubated on the field and not fulfilling the criteria for intubation based on the Glasgow Coma scale score with the building of a predictive score based on those …
Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Pediatric Thoracic Trauma: A Multi-Institutional Trial
The objective of the proposed study is to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of ED POCUS in pediatric traumatic thoracic injuries including traumatic pneumothorax, hemothorax, lung contusion, rib fractures, and pulmonary edema (from submersion injury). This will be a prospective, multicenter, observational study of children 0-21 years of age presenting to …
Evaluation of the Effects of a Rehabilitation Program in Individuals With Spine Pain
SpineZone is an innovative physical therapy program with its focus on treatment of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar conditions through the use of a multi-disciplinary, technology enabled platform. Standard physical therapy modalities including psychologically informed physical therapy are employed in addition to online coaching with a fundamental tenant of core strengthening. …
Investigation of the Effect of Age and Injury Severity on Short-term Intra-hospital Outcomes After Surgical Stabilized Rib Fractures
The study aims to investigate the effect of surgical stabilisation of rib fractures (SSRF) on clinical outcomes measured during the hospital stay (mortality, days on a mechanical ventilator, intensive care unit and hospital length of stay, rate of complications). Furthermore, the effect of the patients age and overall injury severity …
Identification of Multiple Pulmonary Diseases Using Volatile Organic Compounds Biomarkers in Human Exhaled Breath
The goal of this observational study is to develop an advanced expiratory algorithm model utilizing exhaled breath volatile organic compound (VOC) marker molecules. This model aims to accurately diagnose mutiple pulmonary diseases. The primary objectives it strives to accomplish are: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of an exhaled breath VOC-assisted …
