Filter by:Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a form of respiratory support that has been shown to prevent invasive mechanical ventilation and reduce mortality. This study will investigate the feasibility of performing a larger study examining whether a new modality of NIV, the helmet, is superior to the current face mask in reducing mortality in patients with sudden respiratory failure.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of repurposing tazemetostat for the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) or Systemic Cytokine Release Syndrome (SCRS) in COVID-19 patients.
The main objective is to determine the short-term effect of prone positioning in infants with infection-associated severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The investigators compare oxygenation parameters and measurements from electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and lung ultrasonography (LUS) in mechanically ventilated infants in prone position versus supine position after surfactant administration.
This study is a Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled Phase Ib Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of STC314 Injection Administered as Continuous Intravenous Infusion in Chinese Patients with ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome).
Evidence suggests coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with an increased incidence of thromboembolic manifestations. Various guidelines on managing antithrombotics in COVID-19 either provided conflicting guidance or unclear recommendations for post-discharge thromboprophylaxis. The investigators aim to collect the current practices in India among physicians on antithrombotic therapy for hospitalised patients with COVID-19 and after discharge from the hospital.
This study will be carried out by more than 30 liberal Tunisian doctors, who will submit according to the inclusion / exclusion criteria of people who will receive (free of charge) a capsule of the Nig5 product sublingually, each day. Against a control group which will be followed with the same protocol as the first but which will not receive the product. Randomization (even days: nigella group, odd days: control group)
The COVID-19 pandemic is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2), an emerging coronavirus, which has already infected 192 million people with a case fatality rate close to 2%. About 5% of patients infected with SARS CoV-2 have a critical form with organ failure. Among critical patients admitted to intensive care, about 70% of them will require ventilatory assistance by invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) with a mortality rate of 35% and a median MV duration of 12 days. The most severe lung damage resulting from SARS CoV-2 infection is the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The virus infects alveolar epithelial cells and capillary endothelial cells leading to an activation of endothelium, hypercoagulability and thrombosis of pulmonary capillaries. This results in abnormal ventilation / perfusion ratios and profound hypoxemia. To date, the therapeutic management of severe SARS CoV-2 pneumonia lay on the early use of corticosteroids and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor antagonist, which both reduce the need of MV and mortality. The risk factors of death in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) are: advanced age, severe obesity, coronary heart disease, active cancer, severe hypoxemia, and hepatic and renal failure on admission. Among MV patients, the death rate is doubled in those with both reduced thoracopulmonary compliance and elevated D-dimer levels. Patients with severe alveolar damage are at risk of progressing towards irreversible pulmonary fibrosis, the incidence of which still remain unknown. The diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis is based on histology but there are some non-invasive alternative methods (serum or bronchoalveolar biomarkers, chest CT scan). We aim to assess the incidence of pulmonary fibrosis in patients with severe SARS CoV-2 related pneumonia. We will investigate the prognostic impact of fibrosis on mortality and the number of days alive free from MV at Day 90. Finally, we aim to identify risk factors of fibrosis.
In preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), exogenous pulmonary surfactant(PS) replacement therapy is one of the most important therapeutic breakthrough to reduce neonatal incidences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) and/or death. But not all preterm infants with RDS can be beneficial. Otherwise, the international neonatal acute RDS (NARDS) collaborative group provides the first consensus definition for NARDS in 2017. And whether or not PS being beneficial in preterm infants with NARDS remains unknown.
The study to evaluate the effect of cyclosporine ( IL2 inhibitor and antiviral) verse standard care treatment on decrease ADRS, hyper inflammation, hypercytokinemia, and the mortality rate
This study was aimed to evaluate the post-infection cognitive functions of adult individuals with COVID-19. 50 individuals with COVID-19 and 50 healthy control groups were included in the study. Cognitive functions of individuals with COVID19 compared with healthy individuals.
