A Study of the Clinical Benefit of Tobramycin Inhalation Solution

Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This project will use literature analysis, expert research, real-world data mining and other methods to investigate the current status of the application of antimicrobial aerosolized inhalation in healthcare institutions, combine expert recommendations and real-world data analysis results to explore potential risk points in the process of antimicrobial aerosolized drug delivery, and sort out the key points of drug use management in healthcare institutions and the key points of regulatory recommendations for healthcare institutions.

NCT ID: NCT05973201 Recruiting - Lung Infection Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Virtual Reality to Reduce Anxiety, Pain and Duration of Non-emergency Vigile Bronchial Fibroscopy

AVATAR
Start date: October 19, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Bronchial fibroscopy (BF) is a routine practice examination in critical care areas. It can be useful either for the diagnosis of the causal pathology of respiratory distress or for the diagnosis of lung infection, sometimes nosocomial. In patients in spontaneous and conscious ventilation, BF are performed vigil after local anesthesia according to the recommendations of the Société de Pneumologie de langue Française. The good tolerance of the examination and its good conduct may require the use of anxiolytics, sedatives or analgesics to limit the traumatic experience of a highly anxiety-provoking examination. Virtual reality (VR) combines a set of paramedical techniques (hypnosis, music therapy, sophrology) and is now a non-drug alternative to improve the tolerance of certain invasive gestures.VR has been shown to reduce pain and anxiety during first pathways placement or digestive endoscopies. To date, there is no evidence of the benefit of VR when performing semi-urgent BF in critical care areas.

NCT ID: NCT05752019 Active, not recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

TAAI Erasmus Research Initiative to Fight CF: Monitoring Inflammation in CF Lung Disease Into a New Era

TERRIFIC-MILE
Start date: March 21, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Progressive destruction of the lungs is the main cause of shortened life expectancy in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Inflammation and respiratory infections play a key role in CF lung disease. Previous studies have shown that an increase in inflammatory markers predicts structural lung damage. Close monitoring of pwCF is crucial to adequately provide optimal care. Pulmonary management for pwCF involves treating infections and exacerbations and promoting exercise and mucociliary clearance to slow or prevent structural lung damage. To evaluate the treatment and incite timely interventions it is important for the pulmonary physician to be well-informed about the condition of the lungs. The main monitoring tools in regular CF care are lung function, sputum cultures, symptom reporting and more recently imaging by chest computed tomography (CT-scan) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Strangely enough, there are currently no monitoring tools used in clinics to measure inflammation in the lung, although this is a main factor for progressive lung disease. New highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) such as elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor [ETI, Kaftrio®] is transforming CF treatment, vastly improving lung function and reducing exacerbations. Initial CFTR modulators like ivacaftor and lumacaftor/ivacaftor also improved lung function and reduced exacerbations, but studies showed that lung inflammation was still present. The long-term impact of ETI and its effect on inflammation is not yet known. Thus, monitoring pwCF on HEMT may be different from before, as lung damage seen on chest CT will be less apparent and lung function will improve considerably, therefore not being adequate markers for subtle changes in the lungs. Thus, the focus of monitoring in the era of highly effective CFTR modulators needs to change preferably focusing on measuring lung inflammation. An ideal monitoring tool for lung inflammation in pwCF should be non-invasive, efficient, and provide accurate and sensitive results. Currently, sputum and BAL are the most common methods for assessing inflammation, but BAL is invasive and sputum may not always be available. Exhaled breath analysis by the electronic nose (eNose) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) shows promise as a non-invasive monitoring tool. Other promising markers and techniques are inflammatory markers in the blood (cytokines and micro-RNA (miRNA)) and urine. Thus, the objective of this project is to design novel, minimally invasive monitoring techniques capable of identifying lung inflammation in pwCF undergoing highly effective CFTR modulator therapy (ETI) compared to those not using CFTR modulators. The efficacy of these innovative techniques will be evaluated and verified against inflammatory markers in sputum, spirometry, and validated symptom and quality of life scores.

NCT ID: NCT05630443 Recruiting - Surgery Clinical Trials

Effects of Prone Position After Major Abdominal Surgery

EPOS
Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Evaluation of postoperative prone position after major abdominal surgery. A randomized clinical trial of 100+100 patients and further add a voice/speech/singing protocol.

NCT ID: NCT05620329 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

UNC Pleural Fluid Registry

Start date: January 24, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Research with biospecimens such as blood, tissue, or body fluids can help researchers understand how the human body works. Researchers can make new tests to find diseases, understand how treatments work, or find new ways to treat a disease. The purpose of this study is to collect biospecimens for research from patients with known or suspected lung cancer. The information learned from the biospecimens may be used in future treatments. The purpose of this protocol is to create a pleural fluid registry for use in future studies.

NCT ID: NCT05616221 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Pseudomonas Aeruginosa

Study to Evaluate the Safety, Phage Kinetics, and Efficacy of Inhaled AP-PA02 in Subjects With Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis and Chronic Pulmonary Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infection

Tailwind
Start date: January 10, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

A phase 2, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, phage kinetics, and efficacy of inhaled AP-PA02 administered in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and chronic pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.

NCT ID: NCT05349305 Not yet recruiting - Aortic Dissection Clinical Trials

Population Pharmacokinetics of Lassila Tazobactam in Patients After Aortic Dissection

Start date: April 30, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The individualized drug use research on optimizing piperacillin tazobactam for CRRT of hospital-acquired pulmonary infection after cardiopulmonary bypass is still in the initial stage at home and abroad, lacking systematic research data. With the help of the population pharmacokinetic model, it can help clinicians to formulate individualized drug administration plans for such patients and provide methodological and data support for precise treatment. The rational use of piperacillin tazobactam will play an important role in reducing the use of carbapenems and curbing the occurrence of drug resistance.

NCT ID: NCT04741217 Not yet recruiting - Healthy Clinical Trials

Aerosolisation During Respiratory Procedures

Start date: March 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Currently, a major issue within respiratory medicine is undertaking procedures that generate aerosolisation with the concern of spreading infection, such as the SARS-COV-2/COVID-19 virus. It is anecdotally reported that lung function testing and positive airways pressure devices used in clinical practice are aerosol generating procedures however the data to support this is limited. With the advent of high-speed imaging systems that can capture and quantify particle size and velocity we aim to investigate the aerosol generation in routine non-invasive positive pressure respiratory procedures.
