Filter by:Severe H1N1 pneumonia with acute respiratory failure shows hyperactive immune cells infiltration of lung. Rapamune, a mTOR inhibitor, modulates the immune response by blocking activation of T- and B-cells. To investigate the clinical efficiency of rapamune in severe H1N1 pneumonia with respiratory failure, this study was conducted.
The purpose of this study is to compare heart rate in infants who receive atropine as a part of their medication before intubation to those who do not. To be able to find out , we need to divided babies into 2 groups; group 1 : receives atropine + sedation + muscle relaxant group 2 : receives water or saline ( placebo group) + sedation + muscle relaxant Then we need to compare heart rate during intubation and duration of intubation between the 2 groups.
Capnography provides noninvasive monitoring of ventilation and can allow early recognition of altered respiration patterns and apnea. The aim of this prospective study was to compare the detection of apnea and the prediction of oxygen desaturation and hypoxemia by capnography versus clinical surveillance during procedural sedation for percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD).
This study will compare the ability of pulsed-dose oxygen from a concentrator to reverse altitude-induced hypoxemia compared to compressed gas from a standard oxygen cylinder.
Alfentanil (Alf) is used in combination with Propofol (Pro) in fiber-bronchoscopy and in many other conscious sedation procedures. Alf and Pro have the characteristic of rapid anesthetic onset and quick recovery, synergic sedative effect and unwanted side effects too. However, the amount of Alf needed in combination with Pro for induction and the timing of administration was no standardized. The investigators designed this study to evaluate the optimal regimen, dose and timing of Alf in Target-Controlled infusion (TCI) of Pro for flexible bronchoscopy sedation, and also to evaluate the influence of variable regimen of Alf and Pro on hypoxemia, hypotension, cough severity, and Pro injection related pain.
The risk of respiratory failure after cardiac surgery is high, and it may result in many complications. The maneuver of alveolar recruitment may improve the oxygen transport in the human organism. The investigators compare three different types of alveolar recruitment in patient after cardiac surgery, to reveal which one is better.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether indacaterol maleate 300 micrograms (mcg) is effective in the acute treatment of COPD and in particular on reducing lung hyperinflation and dynamic volumes.
The purpose of this study is to develop the hypoxemia prediction model during fiberoptic bronchoscopy under MAC(monitored anesthesia care) anesthesia.
Infants will be observed in the neonatal intensive care unit for 4 hours. The observer will note the timing of oxygen saturation alarms, staff response, and interrupted staff activities.
In the study the value of capnography for avoiding complications during sedation for colonoscopy is evaluated.
