Optimizing Pain Treatment in Children On Mechanical Ventilation
In this clinical trial, investigators want to learn more about using non-opioid pain medications for children with acute respiratory failure. Right now, doctors give these children opioids to help with pain while they are on the ventilator, but investigators don't know if this is the best way to manage their …
Personalized Mechanical Ventilation Guided by UltraSound in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Rationale Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a frequent cause of hypoxemic respiratory failure with a mortality rate of approximately 30%. The identification of ARDS phenotypes, based on focal or non-focal lung morphology, can be helpful to better target mechanical ventilation strategies of individual patients. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a …
Impact of an Early and Extended Rehabilitation Program Combining Individually Tailored Nutrition and Physical Activities on Patient Outcomes After Invasive Mechanical Ventilation and Vasopressor Therapy in the ICU
The NUTRIREA-4 trial will test the hypothesis that an individually tailored rehabilitation program combining nutritional therapy, physiotherapy, and physical activity and started early in the ICU then continued uninterruptedly throughout the post-ICU stay and at home after hospital discharge improves the long-term outcomes of critical-illness survivors, compared to usual care. …
Lung Ultrasound-Guided Fluid Deresuscitation in ICU Patients
Timely recognition and treatment of fluid overload can expedite liberation from invasive mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is an easy to learn, safe, cheap and noninvasive bedside imaging tool with high accuracy for pulmonary edema and pleural effusions in ICU patients. The aim of …
Respiratory Knowledge Portal Computer and Phone Application to Improve Quality of Mechanical Ventilation by Reducing the Number of Ventilator Associated Events, Injury Created by the Ventilator and Unsafe Setting of Alarms.
Ventilator associated events (VAE) is a quality metric defined by 48 hours of stability followed by 48 hours of escalation of ventilator settings within the ICU. VAE have been associated with poor outcomes and increases the cost of care, yet is not easy to avoid. Operationalizing all the standards of …
The ED-AWARENESS-2 Trial
The investigators will screen all mechanically ventilated ED patients for study eligibility and will enroll all consecutive patients satisfying inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study design is a pragmatic, multicenter, stepped wedge cluster randomized trial, enrolling at five sites over a 3-year period, divided into six time periods of six …
Behavioral Economic & Staffing Strategies in the ICU
The overarching goal of this study is to support the "real world" assessment of strategies used to foster adoption of several highly efficacious evidence-based practices in healthcare systems that provide care to critically ill adults with known health disparities. Investigators will specifically evaluate two discrete strategies grounded in behavioral economic …
Brain-injured Patients Extubation Readiness Study
The BIPER study is a stepped wedge cluster randomised clinical trial aiming to decrease extubation failure in critically-ill brain-injured patients with residual impaired consciousness using a simple clinical score.
RCT: Early Feeding After PEG Placement
Randomized controlled trial to establish evidence on which to base timing of enteral feeding after bedside PEG placement in ventilated Trauma and Surgical ICU patients.
PRophylaxis Against Early VENTilator-associated Infections in Acute Brain Injury
This research is about whether treatment with a commonly used antibiotic can prevent infections in airway and lungs and improves the chance of surviving, if it is given soon after patients commence mechanical ventilation when they have been admitted to hospital with an acute severe brain injury. An acute severe …
