Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare thermographic estimates of respiratory rate to manual counting (visual inspection) and thoracic impedance-based methods. Thermographic methods rely on detection of temperature changes in the nose and mouth that occur as room temperature air passes through the nose and mouth during ventilation, and may offer a non-invasive means of measuring respiratory rate without requiring any patient contact.
The goal of this non-randomized prospective study is to use 18F-EF5-PET/CT imaging to identify and locate intraabdominal hypoxic ovarian cancer lesions. With targeted surgical sampling, precisely obtain hypoxic and potentially chemoresistant cancer tissue for our analyses and identify key molecular differences between hypoxic and non-hypoxic tumors within the same patient. A portion of advanced stage EOC are inoperable at diagnosis and can be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) before surgery. This approach offers a unique opportunity to study how hypoxic tumor areas respond to treatment.
The purpose of the study is to randomly and prospectively evaluate the differences in outcomes between the control group (closed full facemask immediate post-extubation with standard oxygenating device used post-operatively in PACU) and the SuperNO2VA™ group (SuperNO2VA™ immediate post-extubation and post-operatively in PACU)
Citicoline as neuroprotector in neonates exposed to hypoxia: A randomized controlled trial
This is a single blind, sham controlled crossover trial that will evaluate the effectiveness of acute intermittent hypoxia therapy (AIH) combined with transcutaneous (non-invasive) spinal cord stimulation on gait and balance function for individuals after spinal cord injury.
This study uses a CPOM Optical neuromonitor to assess the relationship between brain cytochrome C oxidase, cerebral oxygen saturation and blood pressure during surgery performed under general anesthesia.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if automated adjustment of oxygen (with FreeO2 device) can reduce the hospital length of stay for acute exacerbation of COPD with comparison of manual oxygen titration.
Protection of brain development is a major aim in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) occurs in 3-5 per 1000 births. Only 47% of neonates have normal outcomes. The neurodevelopmental consequences of brain injury for asphyxiated term infants include cerebral palsy, severe intellectual disabilities and also a number of minor behavioural and cognitive deficits. However, there are very few therapeutic strategies for the prevention or treatment of brain damage. The gold standard is hypothermic treatment but, according to the literature, melatonin potentially acts in synergy with hypothermia for neuroprotection and to improve neurologic outcomes. Melatonin appears to be a good candidate because of its different protective effects including reactive oxygen species scavenging, excitotoxic cascade blockade, modulation of neuroinflammatory pathways. The research study will evaluate the neuroprotective properties and the effects of Melatonin in association with therapeutic hypothermia for hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.
Postoperative hypoxemia was persistent and common after surgery.Rapid diagnosis and subsequent therapeutic measures must be adopted by anesthesiologists.Lung ultrasound has been confirmed to be more sensitive and accurate for diagnosis of pulmonary ailment than chest radiography.The primary objective of the present study was to evaluate lung complications by bedside lung ultrasonography on patients suffered from hypoxemia after general anesthesia in the postoperative period.
To understand the effects induced by acute hypoxia that sets in during surgery in breast cancer. To study this, clinical samples (Tumor biopsies) will be obtained during the surgery after partial devascularisation (sample B) and stored for future genomic and proteonomic evaluations.
