Filter by:The goal of this is prospective cohort study is to to study the relationship between PaO2 and SpO2 in the overall population undergoing general anesthesia in the OT. Secondary aims include studying the relationship between PaO2 and SpO2 in elderly and obese patients undergoing general anesthesia in the OT, validating the derivation of PaO2 from SpO2 using formulas derived by Rice, Pandharipande, and Gadrey in patients undergoing general anesthesia in the OT, and, if the derivation formulas were not valid, to derive a formula for patients undergoing general anesthesia in the OT. The included blood samples are arterial blood sample collected for ABGs analysis through either an arterial catheter or an arterial blood puncture in adult patients (Age >18 years) undergoing general anesthesia regardless of the acuity of the surgery (elective, emergency, or lifesaving), the hemodynamic stability of the patient, or the comorbidities. Patients undergoing cardiac or thoracic surgeries will be excluded.
Before birth, the baby's lungs are filled with fluid and babies do not use the lungs to breathe, as the oxygen comes from the placenta. As delivery approaches, the lungs begin to absorb the fluid. After vaginal delivery, the umbilical cord is clamped and cut after a delay that allows some of the blood in the umbilical cord and placenta to flow back into the baby. Meanwhile, as the baby breathes for the first time, the lungs fill with air and more fluid is pushed out. However, it does not always work out that way. A baby born prematurely may have breathing problems because of extra fluid staying in the lungs related to the immaturity of the lung structure. Thus, the baby must breathe quicker and harder to get enough oxygen enter into the lungs. The newborn is separated from the mother to provide emergency respiratory support. Although the baby is usually getting better within one or two days, the treatment requires close monitoring, breathing help, and nutritional help as the baby is too tired to suck and swallow milk. Sometimes, the baby cannot recover well and show greater trouble breathing needing intensive care. This further separates the mother and her baby. A possible mean to help the baby to adapt better after a premature birth while staying close to the mother is to delay cord clamping when efficient breathing is established, either spontaneously or after receiving breathing help at birth. In this study, we intend to test this procedure in moderate or late preterm infants and see whether the technique helps the baby to better adapt after birth and to better initiate a deep bond with the mother.
In order to clarify the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture on inhibiting systemic inflammatory response, improving respiratory mechanics parameters and prognosis in patients with sepsis-related ARDS.
The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of sivelestat sodium in preventing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) following cardiac surgery, with the objective of providing evidence-based support for its clinical application.
This is an observational study in which data already collected from people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) are studied. ARDS is a life-threatening condition in which fluid builds up in the lungs making breathing difficult. In observational studies, only observations are made without participants receiving any advice or any changes to health care. People who are admitted to ICU for serious illnesses, like ARDS, often experience new health problems during and after their ICU stays. These health problems that may include physical, mental, and/or emotional disorders, are called post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). Identifying these new health problems early can help people by timely treatments and care. In this study, researchers want to identify any health problems that arise after ICU admission in people with ARDS in the United States (US). To do this, researchers will collect information on health problems, treatments, medicines, and healthcare visits in people with ARDS, 1 year before and after an ICU admission. They will then look to see whether the health problems are in areas that have been described as the post intensive care syndrome (PICS). In addition, they will measure healthcare related costs in the one year after admission and compare it to the one year prior to admission. Researchers will also compare this information with data collected for people with pneumonia who did not require ICU admission. This will help them to identify any new health problems arising due to ICU stays. The data will come from participants' medical claims information stored in the Optum Clinformatics Data Mart database from 2016 to 2022. The claims data will only be collected for people in the US. Researchers will collect data from participants admitted to ICU for ARDS for a maximum of 1 year before and after their stay.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether SBCT is a useful tool for diagnosing the main form of failure respiratory acute and to define the SBCT limit associated with insufficiency respiratory in this population, the requirement for NIV or invasive ventilation. Furthermore, the correlation with the most common scores and indices used in the emergency room will be studied, such as: HACOR, MEW, REMS SCORE, ROS, CURB-65, qSOFA, SEVERITY INDEX OF PNEUMONIA, GWTG HF, LUNG ULTRASOUND SCORE, SINGLE BREATH COUNT
Influenza is still responsible for more than 650,000 deaths per year worldwide and no major improvements in patients' care has been made despite 50 years of research. Especially, there is no therapeutic strategy targeting the dysregulated host response. CXCR4-expressing neutrophils seem to be involved in the rupture of host resistance. The aim of this study is thus to compare the percentage of blood CXCR4-expressing neutrophils between influenza survivors and non-survivors.
The aim of the study is to see if endogenous exhaled Nitric Oxyde (eNO) concentrations measured are significantly higher in ARDS patients admitted in ICU ; compared to control subjects in good health with no lung disease or global inflammation, operated under general anesthesia (i.e. intubated and ventilated) for thyroid or parathyroid.
Open-label pilot study of early inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) for patients developing de novo pulmonary hypertension during Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS.) The study aims to determine whether iNO has possible hemodynamic and clinical benefits when given early in the course of ARDS to patients with evidence of elevated pulmonary artery pressure.
