Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses of treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder in healthy participants.
This pilot investigation will recruit people with Long COVID to participate in a 4 week individualized inspiratory muscle training intervention with pre and post spirometry testing and additional functional outcomes to assess the effectiveness of the intervention.
Inhalation anesthetics, such as desflurane, are identified as contributors to global warming, with the European Union planning to ban desflurane in 2026 due to its impact. The World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists (WFSA) has published guidelines to reduce air pollution related to inhalation anesthetics. Inhalation anesthetics account for a significant portion of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions in hospitals and surgery. Various anesthetics have different global warming potentials (GWP100), with desflurane having the highest GWP100. Nitrous oxide and isoflurane, although having lower GWP100, can also impact the environment negatively. Studies have shown that educating anesthesia staff about the environmental impact of desflurane and nitrous oxide can lead to significant reductions in their usage, resulting in lower CO2e emissions and cost savings. However, in some regions like Korea, awareness of the environmental impact of inhalation anesthetics is limited. The authors plan to analyze the impact of education on anesthesiologists regarding inhalation anesthetics and assess changes in their usage and CO2e emissions in clinical settings. The goal is to demonstrate that education can positively influence environmental outcomes and reduce economic losses.
The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients on balance and postural control. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is IMT effective in improving balance and postural control in MS patients? Participants will be randomly divided into two groups. One group will be given only balance exercises. The other group will be given IMT treatment in addition to balance exercises.
Aim of the study To evaluate the effectiveness of sweet orange oil inhalation in reducing dental anxiety and pain in children undergoing local anaesthetic administration.
Introduction Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory airways and is considered a Public Health problem, which lacks a personalized multidisciplinary intervention, to allow the user to develop mastery in the self-management of his disease. The project intends to answer the question: What methods could be used to enhance the use of asthma controller therapy? Methods Randomized and controlled clinical trial. The sample consists of users with asthma at Family Health Units in the municipality of Oliveira de Azeméis. There will be an experimental group that will undergo structured rehabilitation nursing consultations, and a control group that will receive the usual nursing care appropriate for asthma management. Both groups will be subject to two evaluation moments with the CARAT test and the AQLQ-M questionnaire. Results The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions for people with asthma implemented within the framework of a structured rehabilitation nursing consultation. The investigators expected to observe a clinically significant improvement with regard to disease control, quality of life, and user empowerment.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has three main types, pre-capillary PH, post-capillary PH, and combined pre-capillary and post-capillary PH, and it is based on mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) > 20 mmHg measured with a right heart catheterization (RHC). Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is mainly defined as a pre-capillary PH and classed as a Group IV PH. It was reported that 0.1-9.1% of individuals with pulmonary embolism develop CTEPH within two years after the initial diagnosis, and CTEPH is the only PH category that has a chance of being cured, mainly by pulmonary endarterectomy. Sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD) are defined as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) disorders, central sleep apnea (CSA) syndromes, sleep-related hypoventilation disorders, and sleep-related hypoxemia. An SRBD may also lead to an increase in PAP primarily during sleep and cause nocturnal hypoxemia. Although SRBDs were reported in patients with pre-capillary PH, most of the studies included patients with idiopathic PAH. Although the cause-and-effect relationship between pre-capillary PH and SRBDs is uncertain, it is known that mPAP may increase during sleep in patients with OSA . Less is known regarding the occurrence of SRBDs in CTEPH. Previously a few study showed relationship between SRBDs an CTEPH as the main type was OSA. Most of the studies evaluated preoperative occurance and incidance of SRBDs in CTEPH. Only one study performed post operative SRBD on a cardiorespiratory device was conducted the night before and one month after elective pulmonary endarterectomy. In our previous study we showed that severe nocturnal hypoxemia (NH) is highly prevelant in preoperative CTEPH patients and the most common two types of SRBD are OSA and isolated sleep related hypoxemia (ISRH) and age, mPAP and AHI are independent determinants of severe NH. (J. Clin. Med. 2023, 12, 4639 https://doi.org/10.3390/jcm12144639) In this present study we aimed to investigate occurrence of SRBDs and mortality 5 years after pulmonary endarterectomy operation.
The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of experience of dental sedation at assessment on children's anxiety before the actual treatment session.
The purpose of this study was to compare breathing pattern and involvement of individual breathing compartments (IBC) with and without filtering facepiece respirator (FFR) during rest and exercise.
The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the use of an essential oil inhalation patch in medical surgical nurses on perceived burn-out and stress. The main question is can essential oil inhalation patches decrease perceived burn-out and stress. Participants will - Take part in the study over 30 days, alternating weeks, resulting in each participant using six patches over six shifts. - Complete anonymous Perceived Stress Survey (PSS) before the study begins and at the conclusion of the study. - Participants will also complete a (different) survey after two weeks.
