Safety and Effectiveness of Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) Systems in Physically Active Adults With Type 1 Diabetes
Despite recent medical and technological advances, optimal glycemic control (time in range; TIR) and prevention of hypoglycemia remain significant challenges for people living with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Automated insulin delivery systems (AIDs) combine an insulin pump coupled via an algorithm with a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), allowing constant adjustment …
EPI-STORM: Cytokine Storm in Organ Donors
Kidney and liver transplantation are the treatment of choice and are often the last therapeutic option offered to patients with chronic renal and liver failure. More than 70% of kidneys and liver available for transplantation are obtained from donors following neurological death. Unfortunately, compared to living donation, transplant function, graft …
A New Ultrasonographic Tool to Assess Pulmonary Strain in the ICU
The primary objective of the study is to create a small dataset of regional pulmonary strain values in patients suffering from pulmonary diseases under mechanical ventilation in an intensive care setting. Hypothesis: The analysis of lung ultrasonographic sequences using speckle-tracking allows the determination of local pleural strain in 4 predetermined …
Right Ventricular Pressure Waveform Monitoring in Cardiac Surgery
RV dysfunction has been associated with increased mortality in the ICU and cardiac surgical patients. Thus, early identification of RV dysfunction at less severe stages will allow for earlier intervention and potentially better patient outcomes. However, so far, no studies have reported prospectively the prevalence of abnormal RV pressure waveform …
Radiation OmisSion in PAtients With CLinically Node Negative Breast Cancer Undergoing Lumpectomy
To de-escalate radiation therapy in women with breast cancer.
Comparison of Neuromuscular Recovery at the Hand and Foot
Gold standard for neuromuscular blockade evaluation is accelerometry in three dimensions at the thumb. There are many times that measurement at the hand can be falsely under-estimated intraoperatively secondary to constriction of the upper extremities. We believe that installing the same accelerometer at the first toe will give us similar …
Prognosis and Diagnosis of Spasticity in Acute-post Stroke Patients
Spasticity, or greater muscle resistance, is a major disabling condition following stroke. Recovery of lost motor function in patients with stroke may be affected by spasticity, which most commonly develops in elbow and ankle muscles. However, despite its clinical relevance, the natural development of spasticity over the first 3 months …
Sperm Oxidative Stress and Pregnancy Success During IUI and IVF
Oxidative stress (OS) is characterized by an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the ability of the body to eliminate them. Such an imbalance can lead to lipid peroxidation, DNA damage and cell apoptosis. Studies have suggested that infertile men are more likely to have high …
A Study to Evaluate Microneedle-based Collection of Dermal Interstitial Skin Fluid in Healthy Participants and Atopic Dermatitis Participants
The purpose of this study is to evaluate microneedle-based collection of dermal interstitial skin fluid (dISF) in healthy participants and atopic dermatitis (AD) participants
Antiretroviral Speed Access Program
Migrant populations represent an increasing proportion of newly referred people living with HIV in Canada, particularly in Quebec. Timely HIV care of newly referred patients has important individual-level health benefits that can result in decreased transmission and benefit the society as a whole. Yet, the timing of events in the …
