Optimising Ventilation in Preterms With Closed-loop Oxygen Control
Many premature infants require respiratory support in the newborn period. Mechanical ventilation although life-saving is linked to complications for the lungs and other organs and its duration should be kept to a minimum. The use of supplemental oxygen may also increase the risk of comorbidities such as retinopathy of prematurity. …
Shorter Weaning From Invasive Ventilation With Levosimendan
Prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation is a common and serious challenge in the ICU, associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and length of stay. Diaphragm dysfunction plays a key role in weaning failure, and current strategies to support respiratory muscle function are limited. Levosimendan is a calcium sensitizer that enhances cardiac …
Regional Distribution of Ventilation at Different Respiratory Rates
This study will investigate the distribution of gas during mechanical ventilation in patients undergoing robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. The gas distribution of ventilation are monitored and data extracted using electric impedance tomography in different respiratory rates.
Effect of Implementing Evidence Based Practices on Prevention of Associated Nasal Pressure Injuries Among Preterm Neonates With Non-Invasive Respiratory Support
This study aims to evaluate the effect of implementing evidence based practices on prevention of associated nasal pressure injuries among preterm neonates with non invasive respiratory support
Randomized Clinical Trial for Predictors of Successful Extubation of Pediatric Patients From Mechanical Ventilation Either on High Velocity Nasal Insufflation or Simple Nasal Oxygen and Comparing the Outcome
A randomized clinical trial about predictors of successful extubation of pediatric patients from mechanical ventilation either on High Velocity Nasal Insufflation or simple nasal oxygen and comparing the outcome
Comparison of Physiological Effects of Two High-Flow Tracheal Oxygen Versus T-Piece During Spontaneous Breathing Trials
Spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) are essential for assessing extubation tolerance, yet optimal approaches are debated. High-flow nasal oxygen offers benefits like precise oxygen delivery, flow-related positive end-expiratory pressure generation and improved lung function. While high-flow tracheal oxygen can also be used as an SBT method, it has reduced physiological effects …
Incidence and Determinants of Joint Contractures in Mechanically Ventilated ICU Patients
This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate the incidence and determinants of joint contracture development in mechanically ventilated adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Prolonged immobilization, deep sedation, and neuromuscular blockade are common in critically ill patients and may contribute to musculoskeletal complications, including joint contractures, …
VentilO Prospective Study
This is a randomized, open-label study comparing intial settings made by clinicians with settings recommandation made by the VentilO application immediately after intensive care unit admission.The study will allow direct comparison of the frequency of acidosis when patients are ventilated using the parameters of the VentilO application versus parameters chosen …
EIT-guided PEEP Titration Versus Standard Ventilation in Bariatric Surgery
This study is a prospective, single-center, single-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients scheduled for laparoscopic bariatric surgery will be selected and randomly assigned to either the EIT-guided individualized PEEP group (Group P-eit) or the control group (Group P-8). Group P will be ventilated using the PEEP value determined by EIT, …
Early Switch from Controlled to Assisted Ventilation
The goal of this physiological intervention study is to unravel the (patho)physiological mechanisms and potential clinical benefits of a pre-specified early switch from controlled to assisted ventilation in mechanically ventilated adult patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 200 mmHg). The intervention is that participants will be switched …
