Filter by:Aim is to to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a clinical adjudication committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects will be consented/enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF). The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a clinical adjudication committee (CAC) will determine the final clinical diagnosis using the disease case definitions, eCRF data and the subject's medical record. Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed. The blinded ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses.
Aim of study is to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of paediatric respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a Clinical Adjudication Committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for paediatric respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects/parents will be assented/consented, enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF).The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject/parent and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a CAC will determine the final clinical diagnosis for each enrolled subject using the disease case definitions, eCRF data, the subject's medical record and cough sound recordings.Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost and time of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed.The blinded ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses for this cohort.
Statement of the problem: •Is there an effect of the cough assist device on Hemodynamic status and oxygen saturation for ventilated children? Null hypothesis There will be no effect of cough assist device on hemodynamic status and oxygen saturation for ventilated children.
Rapid detection of microorganisms is a promising approach towards early administration of appropriate antibiotics for sepsis. This study aims to investigate the potential of a new NGS platform for the rapid diagnosis of circulating bacteria in blood.
This si a single-center, non-randomized, open, parallel, single-dose trial was designed to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic characteristics of GST-HG171 tablets in subjects with impaired liver function.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of a self-instructional module regarding ventilator-associated pneumonia care bundle prevention on internship students' knowledge and clinical performance in pediatric intensive care unit.The hypotheses of this study were as follows: 1. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in knowledge test about VAP care bundle prevention than those who are not. 2. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit higher scores in performing the VAP care bundle prevention procedure than those who are not. 3. Internship students who are taught by VAP care bundle prevention self-instructional module exhibit more positive feedback about it than those who are not.
Acquired pneumonia is a sever medical condition that addressed as life-threatening issue require intensive care. Medical Breather device permits activating and strengthening of both inspiratory and expiratory musculatures; thus, it could be useful for pneumatic patients. The aim of the study is to investigate breather effect on hospital stay in pneumatic patients.
Children with pneumonia presenting to the emergency department at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt or Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh will be potentially eligible for study. During intervention periods, providers caring for enrolled children will be presented with a detailed decision support strategy that emphasizes management in accordance with national guideline recommendations. The anticipated study duration is 24 months and, as this study does not include direct contact with enrolled subjects, there is no anticipated follow up.
Coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV2, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV can cause significant morbidity and mortality in infected persons. Lung is the most common site of infection for these viruses, which may manifest as acute respiratory distress syndrome and mortality. Pulmonary involvement is also responsible for the high viral transmission The aim of this study is to evaluate BAL in post-acute COVID-19 patients for:Cytological and cellular patterns. Microbial analysis for possibility of presence of bacterial, mycobacerial or fungal co-infection.PCR for corona virus
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increased incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) among critically ill patients. However, in a context of high prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) there is a lack of direct comparison between the incidence of VAP in COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 cohorts. The investigators conducted a prospective, single-center cohort study comparing COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Città della Salute e della Scienza University Hospital in Turin, Italy, between March 2020 and December 2021 (COVID-19 group), with a historical cohort of ICU-mixed patients admitted between June 2016 and March 2018 (NON-COVID-19 group).
