Filter by:Rationale Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a frequent cause of hypoxemic respiratory failure with a mortality rate of approximately 30%. The identification of ARDS phenotypes, based on focal or non-focal lung morphology, can be helpful to better target mechanical ventilation strategies of individual patients. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a non-invasive tool that can accurately distinguish 'focal' from 'non-focal' lung morphology. The investigators hypothesize that LUS-guided personalized mechanical ventilation in ARDS patients will lead to a reduction in 90-day mortality compared to conventional mechanical ventilation.
To study the pharmacokinetics of continuous infusion of remazolam in ICU mechanically ventilated critically ill patients, and the characteristics of PK in patients with liver failure; to explore whether liver failure affects the metabolism of remazolam by established population pharmacokinetics.
A prospective, randomized controlled study was conducted to compare the effects of esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine in the sedation and analgesia treatment of mechanically ventilated patients in the ICU on the time to awaken, time to extubation, time to mechanical ventilation, time in the ICU, and on delirium.
The Kenyan Critical Care Registry was started in December 2020 and currently involves 10 critical care units in 6 Hospitals. As an initial registry output, we aim to describe patient epidemiological characteristics, initial management and outcomes of critically ill patients in Kenya. This project will provide a much-needed source of clinico-demographic and outcomes data for participating Kenyan critical care units. It will also help to identify processes and outcomes which can be targeted by quality improvement projects, the impact of which can then be evaluated later using the registry.
The relationship between the presence or absence of endothelial dysfunction and changes in pulmonary perfusion will be evaluated, to then determine if there is any association between changes in the V / Q ratio and tolerance to the supine position after a prone cycle in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome on mechanical ventilation.
BACKGROUND: Changes in the clinical practice of mechanical ventilation during and after the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) worldwide could influence the clinical outcomes of critically ill patients with mechanical ventilation due to a generalization of these changes. Thus, the variability of the clinical response of different strategies in critically ill patients could be related to the existence of unidentified phenotypes that would be related to an increased risk of mortality and functional deterioration at the medium term. OBJECTIVES: The main objective will be to evaluate the worldwide clinical practice of mechanical Ventilation in critically ill patients, as well as the medium-term clinical outcomes for the description of phenotypes of critically ill patients treated with mechanical ventilation. The analysis of phenotypes and unsupervised pattern recognition over time could help to predict relevant clinical outcomes. This approach could improve personalized and precision medicine applicable to the ventilated patient. METHODOLOGY: An observational, prospective, non-interventional, international, and multicenter study will be carried out that will include adult critically ill patients requiring invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation for more than 12 hours. Analyzes of the variability of mortality and functional impairment at six months will be performed. Likewise, artificial intelligence analyzes ("machine learning" and "neural networks") will be carried out.
In mechanically ventilated patients in intensive care unit, anemia is commonly seen and it is probably associated with adverse outcomes including mortality. We aim to investigate the impact of duration of anemia and the duration of mechanical ventilation as well as clinical outcomes in critically ill patients in intensive care unit who required ventilatory support >96 hr.
The objective of this study was to investigate the hemodynamic effects of two alveolar recruitment maneuver strategies in critical care patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.
The objective of this study is to investigate the hemodynamic effects of two strategies of alveolar recruitment maneuver in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery in the operating room
This study is a prospective cohort study to evaluate the long-term effects of early activity and mobilisation compared to standard care on disability, function and health status for patients at 1, 2 and 5 years after recruitment of patients randomised into the TEAM Phase III RCT (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03133377). The primary outcome of the study will be the level of disability as measured by the World Health Organisation's Disability Schedule 2.0, 12 level (WHODAS) at 2 years after recruitment.
