NCT ID: NCT06322719 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Failure

Hyperangulated vs Macintosh Blades for Intubation With Videolaryngoscopy in ICU

INVIBLADE
Start date: May 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Tracheal intubation in the intensive care unit (ICU) is associated with high incidence of difficult intubation and complications. Videolaryngoscopes (VLs) devices have been proposed to improve airway management, and the use of VLs are recommended as first-line or after a first-attempt failure using direct laryngoscopy in ICU airway management algorithms. Although until relatively few years ago there were doubts about whether videolaryngoscopes had advantages over direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal intubation (ETI) in critically ill patients, two recent studies (DEVICE (1), INTUBATE (2)), and a Cochrane review (3) have confirmed that videolaryn should be used?, and what is the best blade? . There are two types of blades commonly used with videolaryngoscopes: the "Macintosh" blade with a slight curvature, and hyperangulated blades. The "Macintosh" blades have a lower angle of vision, but they have the advantage of being similar to the blades commonly used in direct laryngoscopy, making them easy to use for the person performing the ETI. Hyperangulated blades have a greater angle of vision, improving glottic visualization, especially in patients with an anterior glottis. However, the need to overcome this angulation could potentially hinder the passage of the endotracheal tube to the vocal cords. It is unknown if either blade has any advantage for intubating critically ill patients.

NCT ID: NCT06319274 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Endothelial Dysfunction

Infusion of Prostacyclin vs Placebo for 72-hours in Mechanically Ventilated Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure

COMBAT-ARF
Start date: April 15, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of continuous intravenous administration of low dose iloprost versus placebo for 72-hours, in 450 mechanically ventilated patients with infectious respiratory failure. The study hypothesis is that iloprost may be beneficial as an endothelial rescue treatment as it is anticipated to deactivate the endothelium and restore vascular integrity in patients suffering from respiratory failure caused by endothelial breakdown, ultimately improving survival.

It will answer the following questions: - The frequency and disease burden of acute respiratory failure in China; - The incidence of ARDS based on the new global definition within this patient cohort. - The mortality of ARDS within this cohort, and how does this vary based on ARDS categories and severity. - The long-term outcomes (1-year mortality and survivor quality of life) of ARDS within this cohort. - The nature course of ARDS (different stages and severity of ARDS). - The respiratory support management strategies, such as recruitment maneuvers, prone positioning, ECCO2R, and ECMO. - The use of drugs during ICU stays, including glucocorticoid, anticoagulant, nitric oxide, sivelestat, Xuebijing, and ulinastatin. - The economical burden of acute respiratory failure within this patient cohort. - The impact of occupation, incomes and education levels on the incidence and mortality of ARDS.

NCT ID: NCT06179485 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Effect of Ketamine and Etomidate During RSI on Long Term Outcomes

RSI-LTO
Start date: April 6, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The RSI-LTO study collects long-term outcomes from the RSI trial (NCT05277896). One-third of adults who are intubated in the ED or ICU experience symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is a psychiatric disorder triggered by a "shocking, scary, or dangerous event." Critical illness, tracheal intubation, and mechanical ventilation can be traumatic and distressing events. Patients may recall the intubation procedure, the feeling of the breathing tube in their throat, or being unable to move ("paralyzed"). While on the breathing machine, patients may experience delirium, frightening hallucinations, and delusions. Patients with PTSD after critical illness can be hypervigilant, anxious, and troubled by intrusive thoughts, nightmares, and flashbacks that last months to years after critical illness and that PTSD negatively impacts patients' marriages, work, and quality of life and increases patients' risk of depression, anxiety, substance use disorder, and suicide. Ketamine may prevent PTSD symptoms by blocking the pathways in the brain's glutaminergic system that are responsible for the formation of traumatic memories In outpatients with chronic PTSD, a single dose of ketamine has been shown to reduce PTSD symptoms for up to 2 weeks. Even a modest reduction in PTSD would translate into tens of thousands of fewer cases of PTSD each year, more cases of PTSD each year than any other medical intervention evaluated to date.

NCT ID: NCT06051292 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Decremental Esophageal Catheter Filling Volume Titration For Transpulmonary Pressure Measurement

DECFVTTPM
Start date: September 18, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Mechanical ventilation is a critical intervention in the management of pediatric patients with respiratory distress. During this process, accurate measurement of transpulmonary pressure (PL) is essential to ensure the safety and efficacy of ventilation. PL is defined as the difference between alveolar pressure (Palv) and pleural pressure (Ppl). While the direct measurement of Ppl is possible, it poses a risk to tissue integrity. Thus, the primary surrogate for Ppl measurement today is esophageal pressure (Pes). However, the measurement of Pes is not without challenges. This abstract outlines the pitfalls associated with Pes measurement, emphasizing the importance of employing well-defined procedures to mitigate potential errors. These errors can range from underestimation of Pes due to underfilled catheters to overestimation resulting from overfilled catheters. To address these challenges and optimize Pes measurement, various methods have been proposed for titrating the filling volume of the esophageal catheter. In this study, investigators aim to assess a faster decremental filling method and compare it to the traditionally accepted Mojoli method in the context of pediatric patients. This research seeks to enhance the intensivists' understanding of the most efficient and accurate approach to Pes measurement during mechanical ventilation in the pediatric population, ultimately contributing to improved patient care and outcomes

NCT ID: NCT06046898 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Failure

Surface Mechanomyography Using a Parasternal Patch to Measure and Detect Respiratory Drive and Effort

PATCH-MMG
Start date: November 6, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Surface mechanomyography (sMMG) has been proposed as a tool to study muscle mechanical activity. sMMG is a noninvasive technique using specific transducers to record muscle surface oscillations due to mechanical activity of the motor units . It could be of major interest for the detection of respiratory efforts in patients with respiratory failure. This study aims at assessing the performances of sMMG to measure and detect respiratory drive and effort in healthy volunteers.

NCT ID: NCT05991258 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Failure

Effect of End-inspiratory Airway Pressure Measurements on the Risk of VILI in Ventilated Patients

P1P2Decay
Start date: March 9, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Mechanical ventilation may be associated with ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Several respiratory variables have been employed to estimate the risk of VILI, such as tidal volumes, plateau pressure, driving pressure, and mechanical power. This dissipation of energy during ventilation can contribute to VILI through two mechanisms, stress relaxation and pendelluft, which can be estimated at the bedside by applying an end-inspiratory pause and evaluating the slow decrease in airway pressure going from the pressure corresponding to zero flow (called pressure P1) and the final pressure at the end of the pause (called plateau pressure P2). The choice of measuring the end-inspiratory airway pressure (PawEND-INSP) at a fixed, although relatively early, timepoint, i.e., after 0.5 second from the beginning of the pause, as prescribed by the indications of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Network, while assessing the risk of VILI associated with the elastic pressure of the respiratory system, may not reflect the harmful potential associated with the viscoelastic properties of the respiratory system. It is still unclear whether an PawEND-INSP measured at the exact moment of zero flow (P1) is more reliable in the calculation of those variables, such as ΔP and MP, associated with the outcomes of patients with and without ARDS, as compared to the pressure measured at the end of the end-inspiratory pause (plateau pressure P2). This multicenter prospective observational study aims to evaluate whether the use of P1, as compared to P2, affects the calculation of ΔP and MP. The secondary objectives are: 1) verify whether in patients with a lung parenchyma characterized by greater parenchymal heterogeneity, as assessed by EIT, P1-P2 decay is greater than in patients with greater parenchymal homogeneity; 2) evaluate whether patients with both ΔP values calculated using P1 and P2 <15 cmH2O (or both MP values calculated using P1 and P2 <17 J/min) develop shorter duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, shorter ICU and hospital length of stay and lower ICU and hospital mortality, as compared to patients with only ΔP calculated with P1 ≥ 15 cmH2O (or only MP calculated with P1 ≥ 17 J/min) and patients with both ΔP values calculated using P1 and P2 ≥ 15 cmH2O (or both MP values calculated using P1 and P2 ≥ 17 J/min).
