NCT ID: NCT03899298 Not yet recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Safety and Clinical Outcomes With Amniotic and Umbilical Cord Tissue Therapy for Numerous Medical Conditions

Start date: September 1, 2019
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

To determine the safety and efficacy of Amniotic and Umbilical Cord Tissue for the treatment of the following condition categories: Orthopedic, Neurologic, Urologic, Autoimmune, Renal, Cardiac and Pulmonary Conditions. The hypotheses are that the treatments are not only extremely safe, but also statistically beneficial for all conditions. Outcomes will be determined by numerous valid outcome instruments that compile general quality of life information along with condition-specific information as well.

NCT ID: NCT03863821 Completed - COPD Clinical Trials

The Application and Analysis of HHHFNC in Walking Test of Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Start date: March 18, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to investigate the use heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC) in pulmonary rehabilitation and analysis of cardiopulmonary parameters in adult patients.

NCT ID: NCT03863509 Completed - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Diseases

E-Cigarette Effects on Markers of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Disease

Start date: March 5, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is designed to enhance the understanding of the possible health effects of e-cigarette use by relating the acute and long-term use of e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes ("products") to well-validated cardiovascular and pulmonary disease biomarkers. Participants will be enrolled in 3 groups: exclusive e-cigarette users, exclusive cigarette smokers, and a control group of never-users. Participants can expect up to 4 weeks of study participation.

NCT ID: NCT03828630 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Lung Ultrasound to Detect Pulmonary Complications in Critically Ill Parturients

LUSIP
Start date: July 8, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims at describing the frequency, timing and type of pulmonary complications detected with lung ultrasound in critically-ill parturients in admitted to a high-dependency unit in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

NCT ID: NCT03798158 Recruiting - Dyspnea Clinical Trials

Prevalence and Characterization of Persistent Dyspnea After Hospitalization

DyHP
Start date: April 11, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The investigators aim to make an overview of persistent dyspnea at the end of an hospitalization for a respiratory disease using an actual tool, the Multidisciplinary Dyspnea Profile questionnaire.

NCT ID: NCT03793504 Completed - Pulmonary Disease Clinical Trials

Cardio-Respiratory Response of a Training Session Versus an Adapted Physical Activity Session

WIIRR
Start date: January 2, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

the aim of this study is to show that training session with nintendo WII requires the same cardiorespiratory demand than training session on ergocycle or treadmill, traditionally used in pulmonary rehabilitation program.

NCT ID: NCT03767517 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

A Culturally-Based Palliative Care Tele-consult Program for Rural Southern Elders

Start date: August 24, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Rural patients with life-limiting illness are at very high risk of not receiving appropriate care due to a lack of health professionals, long distances to treatment centers, and limited palliative care (PC) clinical expertise. Secondly, although culture strongly influences people's response to diagnosis, illness and treatment preferences, culturally-based care models are not currently available for most seriously-ill rural patients and their family caregivers. Lack of sensitivity to cultural differences may compromise PC for minority patients. The purpose of this study is to compare a culturally-based Tele-consult program to usual hospital care to determine whether a culturally-based PC Tele-consult program leads to lower symptom burden in hospitalized African American and White older adults with a life-limiting illness.

NCT ID: NCT03758898 Completed - Clinical trials for Bariatric Surgery Candidate

The Effect of Chest Physiotherapy After Bariatric Surgery

Start date: May 5, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chest physiotherapy applied to patients undergoing bariatric surgery on pulmonary functions, dyspnea levels, functional capacity and quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT03658200 Terminated - Pulmonary Disease Clinical Trials

Fully Automated Scan Technique Optimisation of Scan Timing in Chest CT

[FAST-START]
Start date: April 5, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is a non-invasive imaging tool widely used for various indications. Contrast media (CM) is used to enhance the intravascular lumen and organ parenchyma, depending on the indication. Recent technical advances in CT scan techniques allow for a very fast scan acquisition with substantially increased image quality in terms of temporal and spatial resolution. However, with faster scan acquisition, challenges arise with regard to CM bolus timing. The risk of outrunning the CM bolus in these fast acquisitions is higher, resulting in a decreased intravascular attenuation and subsequent hypothetical increase in non-diagnostic image quality. Previous studies have investigated the reduction of CM volume. When reducing the CM volume, the total injection time decreases and the window of peak enhancement shortens and becomes more narrow. The latter increases when injecting small CM volumes with higher flow rates. Although the peak enhancement increases, the window of peak enhancement decreases more rapidly. Thus, when administered with the same flow rate, the peak of the enhancement curve will be lower, narrower and faster compared to larger CM volumes. This, in combination with the faster scan acquisition makes the timing of the start of the scan highly important, since scanning at the peak enhancement is necessary to achieve a diagnostic image quality. New bolus tracking auto-delay software (Fully Automated Scan Technique, FAST, Siemens Healthineers) automatically estimates the delay needed to scan at the peak of the enhancement curve. With help of this software, the optimal individual scan delay and enhancement can be achieved, and the risk of non-diagnostic scans should decrease. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the performance of the Bolus Tracking Auto-Delay (FAST) software in patients receiving a standard chest CT with regard to the number of non-diagnostic scans (< 300 HU) and compare this with standard care (manual set pre-scan delay).

NCT ID: NCT03622528 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Quantitative Lung Cancer Screening

Start date: July 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this project is to validate quantitative lung structure assessment using an automated analysis software (VIDA), for application to low dose computed tomography (LDCT) acquired for lung cancer screening. Currently the software runs on standard dose CT data. In addition, it is the plan to incorporate algorithms into the software to address assessment of any identified pulmonary lesions.
