Filter by:The investigators evaluate the effects of High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in association with prone in patients with Covid-19 severe ARF.
In this study, patients who are ready for extubation and indicated for high-flow nasal cannula therapy after extubation will be enrolled, the investigators would measure the patient peak tidal inspiratory flow (PTIF) pre and post extubation to explore the correlation between the two PTIFs. Moreover, different HFNC flows would be applied, to explore the patient response in terms of oxygenation and lung aeration to different flow ratios that matched and are above post-extubation PTIF.
The purpose of this research is to evaluate two oxygen saturation goals for newborns with pulmonary hypertension. Participation in this research will involve random assignment to one of two oxygen saturation goals, review of the medical record and targeted echocardiograms.
This is a single-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of high-flow nasal cannula with a flow rate of 60 L/min versus 40 L/min after planned extubationon on a composite outcome of reintubation and use of NIV.
The investigator hypothesis is that early implementation of early, awake prone position for patients with COVID-19 pneumonia requiring oxygen therapy will reduce the need for escalation of respiratory support. Escalation of respiratory support is defined as the need for respiratory support with HFNO, NIV or IV.
SARS-CoV-2 targets endothelial cells via the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor. The specific impact of the resulting endothelial injury is currently unknown but may contribute to the pro-coagulant state classically described during Covid-19 disease and commonly associated with an exacerbated activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
The aim of this study is to determine whether the use of steroids versus watchful waiting improves pulmonary function tests in patients with history of COVID 19 infection who have residual hypoxemia and lung infiltrates. This is a non-inferiority trial which tests whether the outcomes after watchful waiting are not worst than after the use of steroids, with a margin of acceptable inferiority. The study team will limit inclusion to patients who have PCR- confirmed COVID19 at least in 10-weeks prior to enrollment, persistent opacities on chest imaging, and hypoxemia either at rest or during ambulation.
The study compares oxygen and NHF in patients with acute viral illness. The duration will be 72h. After them physiological parameters and the outcome will be evaluated.
Treatment of patients with Hypoxemic respiratory failure (HRF) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is complex. Therapies that have been shown to save the lives of patients with HRF and ARDS are available but they are not always provided. To reduce practice variation and improve adherence to evidence-informed therapies, the investigators developed the Treatment of Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure and ARDS with Protection, Paralysis, and Proning (TheraPPP) Pathway. The overall objective of TheraPPP Pathway is to improve the quality of care for patients with HRF. Implementation of the pathway across Alberta will test the effectiveness and implementation of the TheraPPP Pathway.
This study will compare the impact of a classical aerosol mask above low-flow nasal cannula on the arterial oxygen tension in patients with COVID-19.
