Filter by:In this study the investigator will randomize 273 subjects to deep (<20°C), low (20.1°C-24°C), or moderate (24.1°C-28°C) hypothermia during aortic arch surgery with circulatory arrest. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the effect of deep vs low vs moderate hypothermia on neurocognitive function, brain functional connectivity, and leukocyte SUMOylation patterns after surgical circulatory arrest in participants.
This study was a multicenter, randomized, controlled pilot trial of moderate systemic hypothermia (33°C) vs normothermia (37°C) for 48 hours in infants with neonatal encephalopathy instituted within 6 hours of birth or hypoxic-ischemic event.
We will conduct an individually randomised, controlled, superiority trial with two parallel groups; an intervention arm allocated to receive KMC and a control arm receiving 'standard' care. The primary aim is to examine the impact of KMC initiated before stabilisation on mortality within 7 days relative to standard care amongst neonates ≤2000g at four hospitals in Uganda. We hypothesise that neonates in the arm allocated to receive KMC before stabilisation will have a 25% overall reduction in mortality within 7 days compared to neonates allocated to receive standard care.
Preterm neonates less than 32 weeks of gestational age admitted at birth to the Neonatal Medicine unit will be included after informing the parents. Abdominal skin and peripheral (arm or leg) and incubator air temperatures and relative humidity will be obtained from data recorded by the incubator without using any additional transducer compared to standard care. Pulse and respiratory rate, blood pressure, the incidence of apnoeas and sleep organization will also be recorded from routine monitoring. A case report form and a wide-angle video recording of the infant's room will allow description of the type of care, determine the duration of care and the impact on incubator function. Data will be recorded for the first 7 days of life of the preterm neonate.
A multicenter, prospective, controlled, randomized (moderate hypothermia 33°C≤ T°C ≤34°C) during 24 hours ± 1h versus normothermia (36°C≤ T°C ≤37°C), comparative open trial will be conducted on two parallel groups of patients with cardiogenic shock treated with VA-ECMO. The HYPO-ECMO trial will test the hypothesis that moderate hypothermia (temperature between 33°C≤ T°C ≤34°C) associated with VA-ECMO support results in a reduction in 30-day mortality in comparison with the normothermia group (36°C≤ T°C ≤37°C).
Hypothermia may reduce infarct size in patients with acute myocardial infarction if provided before reperfusion. Human studies using systemic cooling methods failed to show a reduction in infarction size. The use of selective intracoronary hypothermia may overcome the problems of systemic cooling. The hypothesis of this study is that in patients with acute myocardial infarction, the induction of intracoronary hypothermia is safe and feasible.
Prospective randomized trial comparing effectiveness of two different forced-air warming blankets in patients undergoing lower extremity angioplasty (LEA) and endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR).
To evaluate the significance of free-plasma deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and plasma histones in cardiac arrest patients.
Cardiac arrest is at present a major cause of mortality as well as a cause of disability for the surviving victims.In Europe, every year counts as 300,000 cardiac arrests responsible for 250,000 deaths. Thus, less than 20 % of patients discharged home with impaired quality of life associated with symptoms of tiredness, stress, anxiety. The prognosis is related to the initial cardiac rhythm present during the initiation of resuscitation. Recent progress in the improvement of mortality and neurological outcome has been achieved over the last decade thanks to the systematic implementation of a period of targeted temperature control between 32 and 34 ° C in patients who benefited from the realization of at least one electrical external shock. There are theoretical and clinical arguments to think that achieving the same way a period of targeted temperature control between 32 and 34 ° C in patients treated for cardiac arrest with a non- shockable rhythm on arrival can also benefit from this procedure. However other arguments are against this hypothesis including an increase in the risk of infection , worsening of the patient's hemodynamic status with no benefit to him. To answer this question, we conduce a randomized multicenter study testing the potential improvement of neurological outcome through this procedure targeted temperature control between 32.5 and 33.5 ° C in these patients. NSE-Ancillary Study of HYPERION Trial will determine impact on neurospecific enolase (brain biomarker) of two temperature target for targeted temperature management (33°C or 37°C) after cardiac arrest in non-shockable rhythm.
