Filter by:This proposed study suggests that peripheral tissue acidosis sensed by the somatosensory system (sngceptin) would evoke the sng perception in the brain. This hypothesis is based on investigators preliminary data that the peripheral muscle acidosis will evoked the central sng perception. This proposed study also identify the detection of brain activation areas related to the peripheral muscle acidosis. Investigators will know specific brain areas related to sng perception evoked by the peripheral muscle acidosis and, accordingly, a novel mechanism and potential treatment for sng would be developed in this proposed study.
Severe metabolic acidemia in the critically ill (pH equal or less than 7.20; PaCO2 equal or less than 45mmHg and bicarbonate concentration equal or less than of 20 mmol/l) is associated with a 50% rate of day 28 mortality. Moderate to severe acute kidney injury is a frequent cause of metabolic acidemia in the critically ill. When both severe metabolic acidemia and moderate to severe acute kidney injury are observed, day 28 mortality is approximatively 55-60%. Severe acidemia has been shown to be a biomarker of severity but may also contribute by itself to outcome. Investigators recently performed a multiple center randomised clinical trial (BICARICU-1) that suggests that sodium bicarbonate infusion titrated to maintain the pH equal or more than 7.30 is associated with a higher survival rate (secondary endpoint) in patients presenting both severe metabolic acidemia and moderate to severe acute kidney injury patients. Whether sodium bicarbonate infusion may improve long term survival (Day 90, primary outcome) in these severe acute kidney injury patients is currently unknown.
Alterations of acid-base equilibrium are very common in critically ill patients and understanding their pathophysiology can be important to improve clinical treatment.
Protection of brain development is a major aim in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Neonatal encephalopathy (NE) occurs in 1.8 to 7.7 infants per 1000 births. Over the last six years, several randomized control trials have demonstrated that therapeutic hypothermia reduces the rate of death or disability at 18 months of age among infants who survived. However, the neurodevelopmental outcome in milder NE not treated with hypothermia remains unclear. A multicenter prospective observational study will be conducted to determine biological changes of mild neonatal encephalopathy who are not recruited for therapeutic hypothermia .
Researchers are trying to determine which dialysis solution, low bicarbonate fluid (22 mmol/L) or high bicarbonate fluid (32 mmol/L), is better in subjects with acute kidney injury (acute kidney failure) and metabolic acidosis that are admitted to the intensive care unit and require continuous renal replacement therapy (also known as continuous dialysis).
Open-label study involving longitudinal assessment of the continued safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ADV7103 in maintaining targeted serum bicarbonate levels, preventing metabolic acidosis, and preventing hypokalemia in the following groups of subjects with primary dRTA: 1. subjects who participated in Study B23CS and were adherent to the protocol; 2. subjects ≥ 6 months of age who are living in Europe and did not participate in Study B23CS; and 3. infants younger than 6 months of age
Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) denotes the use of high-flow humidified nasal oxygen system (for example Optiflow®) as an alternative ventilation modality for an anesthetized patient without spontaneous respiration. This method requires only basic airway management manoeuvres to keep the airway open and provides both stable longterm oxygenation as well as apneic ventialtion. We plan to evaluate this methods physiological performance under standardized conditions of airway management by frequent, repeated arterial blood gas analyses.
The objective of study is to detect effect of remote ischemic preconditioning on serum lactate levels during and after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in addition to its effect on cardiac and renal clinical outcomes.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine if administration of intravenous thiamine will lead to quicker resolution of acidosis in patients admitted to the hospital with diabetic ketoacidosis. The investigators will secondarily investigate whether thiamine improves cellular oxygen consumption, shortens intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay or decreases hospital resource utilization.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of TRC101 on the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to evaluate the safety profile of TRC101 in CKD patients with metabolic acidosis.
