Acute Distress Respiratory clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT03964155 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Acute Distress Respiratory

Sampling in ARDS Patients Under Inhaled Sedation

ANAISS

Start date: July 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of this study is to compare the protein composition of simultaneously collected undiluted pulmonary edema fluid and AnaConDa-S ® fluid from patients with ARDS. In a previous pilot randomized controlled trial, in patients with moderate-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the use of inhaled sevoflurane improved oxygenation and decreased levels of a marker of lung epithelial injury (soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products, sRAGE) and of some inflammatory markers (interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α), compared to intravenous midazolam. These results reinforce those from previously published preclinical studies as they suggest a protective effect of sevoflurane from alveolar/systemic inflammation and from reduced epithelial injury and/or improved alveolar fluid clearance, as assessed by plasma soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE). The results from available studies support the safe use of sevoflurane inhalation through dedicated device is well tolerated, with no major adverse effect, e.g. on renal function or respiratory mechanics, in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), including those with ARDS. Because the investigators group frequently uses sevoflurane in patients with ARDS and are interested in developing further research on the effects of inhaled sedation in ARDS, the current study has been designed to verify whether the same concept could be applied to the filter the investigators use to vaporize sevoflurane in their ICUs.
