Transesophageal Echocardiography To Diagnose Blunt Traumatic Aortic Injury Traumatic Aortic Injury
To determine test performance of transesophageal echocardiography performed by emergency physician ultrasound for the identification of blunt traumatic aortic injury in chest trauma.
Thorax vs. Trauma Injury Severity Scores as Outcome Predictors in Chest Trauma
The goal of this observational study is to compare the predictive utility of the Thorax Trauma Severity Score (TTSS) and the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) in determining outcomes among patients presenting with chest trauma to the emergency room. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the …
Senstivity and Specificity of Lung Ultrasound for Early Detection of ARDS in Patients With Chest Trauma
The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of lung ultrasound in early detection of ARDS and Pneumonia in comparison to CT chest in patients with chest trauma. Also, we aim at finding any pulmonary complications and its correlation to development of ARDS and pneumonia …
Thorax Trauma Severity Score in Chest Trauma: A Study in Iraq
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the predictive utility of the Thorax Trauma Severity Score (TTSS) in determining morbidity and mortality in patients presenting with chest trauma at a tertiary hospital in Iraq. The primary objectives of the study are: To assess the accuracy of TTSS in predicting mortality …
Cardiac Injury Due to Anthracycline in Paediatric Oncological Patients
The study investigates the role of echocardiography and of serum biomarkers (NT-proBNP, cardiac Troponin-I) in predicting cardiac injury in a cohort of paediatric oncological patients treated with Anthracycline chemotherapy.
RibFix Blu Thoracic Fixation System Versus Non-surgical Treatment in Non-flail Chest Rib Fractures
This is a prospective, multi-center, observational, cohort study involving skilled cardiothoracic surgeons who are experienced in implanting the treatment of non-flail chest rib fractures and the use of RibFix Blu Thoracic Fixation System.
Neutrophil Phenotypic Profiling and Acute Lung Injury in Patients After Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)
Acute lung injury (ALI) following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a serious complication, often prolonging the length of stay in ICU and potentially dealing to mortality. The objective of this study is to assess the mechanism of CPB-mediated acute lung injury in pediatric patients.
Comparison of Computertomography Scan, Electrical Impedance Tomography, and Ultrasound of the Lung in Infants
The study focuses on regional lung examination, in particular on the differentiation between collapsed and hyperinflated lung areas. The purpose of the study is to elaborate common and discriminative elements between different lung imaging modalities in infants and to generate hypotheses for the bedside use of EIT and LUS in …
Respiratory Muscle Structure and Function in Mechanically Ventilated Patients and Long-term Outcomes
Air is normally pumped in and out of the lungs by the muscles that contribute to inhalation and exhalation, called the respiratory muscles. The abdominal muscles help by forcing air out of your lungs during exhalation; whereas the diaphragm, the main muscle used for breathing, contracts to get air into …
Effect of Alcohol and Drugs of Abuse on Immune Function in Critically Ill Patients With Respiratory Failure
This study plans to learn more about people who are sick in the hospital with a lung infection, or respiratory failure. Respiratory failure, or severe lung failure, is a life-threatening disease. When it happens, the lungs have trouble carrying out their normal function of getting oxygen into the blood, and …
