Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of three doses of orvepitant, taken once a day, in the treatment of chronic refractory cough.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Phytus in Acute Cough
Emergence of general anesthesia is a critical period, in the same way as the induction of anesthesia, during which several adverse events may occur. Extubation may even be more difficult than the intubation, with a higher respiratory complications rate. Among these, cough is common and expected. It can be associated with significant complications including hypertension, tachycardia, increased intracranial pressure, bleeding at the surgical site or even wound dehiscence. The incidence of coughing during emergence of general anesthesia varies depending on the type of airway instrumentation, the population under study, agents used for the maintenance of the anesthesia and techniques used to prevent coughing. In the literature, the incidence of coughing during emergence of general anesthesia under endotracheal intubation varies from 38 to 96%. In our center, the incidence of coughing during emergence of general anesthesia under desflurane and endotracheal intubation is 30 % according to a local preliminary study. Propofol is well-known to inhibit airway reflexes. Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is associated with a lower incidence of coughing compared to inhalated anesthesia. The efficacy of propofol at a subhypnotic dose to reduce coughing during emergence has recently been demonstrated in patients undergoing nasal surgery under sevoflurane. However, the most effective antitussive dose remains unknown and its efficacy during anesthesia under desflurane has not yet been demonstrated. Propofol is rapidly available, simple to administer and has an interesting pharmacological profile, among others due to its short half-life. The aim of this study is to evaluate if an intravenous bolus of 0.5 mg/kg of propofol is more effective than placebo administration to decrease the incidence of coughing during emergence of general anesthesia under desflurane (PROPOREV). Propofol could also reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
The hypothesis is that the cough reflex induced by capsaicin is inhibited during exercise. The purpose of this study is to determine if a short muscular exercise inhibits the cough reflex induced by capsaicin inhalation.
Using an active cohort of children in whom Airway and gastrointestinal endoscopy will be performed, investigators will conduct a chart review to obtain relevant clinical data and the investigators will use an aliquot of airway sample obtained during the clinically indicated bronchoscopy for microbiome analysis. A case-control study design will be used to study whether subjects with CC with GER have a distinct lung microbiome and increased inflammation as compared with subjects with CC without GER and to determine whether the microbiome and degree of inflammation is related to the type of GER (acidic versus nonacidic).
Condition of the State: (terminated, recruiting, etc.) Terminated Study Design: Main Objective: Compare the frequency and intensity of coughing at the time of extubation with two infusions of remifentanil that predict a plasma concentration (PC) of 3 - 4 and 2 - 3 ng/ml, through the technique of target controlled anesthesia
This observational, non-interventional multicentric study compares the inhalation therapy on patients suffering on respiratory tract infections and/or acute bronchitis between Ectoin inhalation solution and Pari NaCl (0.9%) inhalation solution
This was an 8-week randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of gefapixant (AF-219) in participants with refractory chronic cough.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of three dose regimens of gefapixant ([MK-7264] 7.5 mg, 20 mg, and 50 mg) relative to placebo in reducing awake objective cough frequency. The primary hypothesis for this trial is that at least one dose regimen of gefapixant is superior to placebo with respect to the mean change from baseline in awake cough frequency (on the log scale).
The objectives of this pivotal study are: 1. to evaluate bioavailability of an extended-release and immediate release Codeine Phosphate/Guaifenesin tablet at steady state following multiple oral administration 2. to assess the safety and tolerability of this Codeine Phosphate/Guaifenesin extended release formulation.
