Filter by:At the beginning of 2020, a global alert emerged which saturated intensive care units due to COVID-19 worldwide. This caused a need for mechanical ventilation due to atypical pneumonias that had a rapid evolution and respiratory failure; therefore the consumption of sedative agents in the intensive care units escalated. Suboptimal sedation in the intensive care unit, increases the adverse effects, costs, and morbidity. For the time being, they focus on the use of intravenous agents such as propofol or dexmedetomidine, which are associated with tolerance, withdrawal, delirium, and hemodynamic effects. Consequently, the need arises to maximize availability and effectiveness, which is why the intervention of the ANACONDA conservation device is carried out, which works with a heat and humidity exchange filter capable of administering isoflurane or sevoflurane with an efficiency of 90%.
The goal of this randomized crossover physiological study is to evaluate the physiologic effects of asymmetrical nasal cannula and conventional nasal cannula in patients with acute respiratory failure. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the asymmetrical high-flow nasal cannula reduce the diaphragm and parasternal intercostal work activity of breathing measured by ultrasound compared to conventional high-flow nasal cannula? - What is the effect of the asymmetrical high-flow nasal cannula on breathing pattern, gas exchange, and hemodynamic variables compared to conventional high-flow nasal cannula? Participants will received asymmetrical high-flow nasal cannula or conventional high-flow nasal cannula at a flow rate of 40 and 60 L/min in a random order.
This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of sedation protocol targeting optimal respiratory drive using P0.1 and arousal level compared with conventional sedation strategy (targeting arousal level alone) in patients requiring mechanical ventilation in the medical intensive care unit.
The optimal noninvasive respiratory support for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure is debated. Recent preliminary data indicate that both pressure-support noninvasive ventilation (NIV) and continuous-positive airway pressure (CPAP) may be of benefit. While often applied interchangeably in clinical practice, NIV and CPAP have different effects on the inspiratory effort, which is the major determinant of self-inflicted lung injury. Also, inspiratory effort widely varies among individuals. The purpose of this study is to assess the physiological effects of a noninvasive respiratory support approach guided by inspiratory effort, as compared to CPAP and NIV, in patients with moderate-to-severe acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.
The main objective of this pilot study is to determine if our protocole using EtO2 monitoring during preoxygenation before intubation is feasible in a population of critically ill patients in acute hypoxemic respirator failure (AHRF) in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). We hypothesize that using EtO2 monitoring during preoxygenation before intubation is feasible and safe in a population of critically ill patients in AHRF in ICU setting.
Mechanically ventilated intensive care patients will be sampled for a small amount of exhaled breath condensate from the ventilator circuit and for venous blood. Proteomic analysis of the exhaled breath condensate will be performed using mass spectrometry and in the blood sample, corresponding changes in the DNA, RNA, proteins, and metabolites will be studied. Resulting profiles will be correlated with routinely monitored parameters in order to identify patterns corresponding to various pathologies in order to enable their early detection.
The purpose of this study is to assess the Non-Invasive Ventilation-Continuous Positive Airway Pressure efficacy (experimental group) for drowning related Acute Respiratory Failure compared to Oxygen Supply by face mask (15Liters/minutes) (control group).
The objectives of this study are to compare the physiological consequences of high-flow oxygen therapy and noninvasive mechanical ventilation on ventilation, respiratory work and hemodynamics during acute respiratory failure in diffuse interstitial pneumonia.
The importance of cardiorespiratory impact in mental diseases is generally emphasized in studies, but it is noteworthy that cardiorespiratory affects in mood disorders have not been sufficiently investigated. This study aims to compare individuals with mood disorders and healthy people in terms of exercise capacity, functionality, respiratory muscle strength, respiratory functions, dyspnea and physical activity level.
The RSI-LTO study collects long-term outcomes from the RSI trial (NCT05277896). One-third of adults who are intubated in the ED or ICU experience symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is a psychiatric disorder triggered by a "shocking, scary, or dangerous event." Critical illness, tracheal intubation, and mechanical ventilation can be traumatic and distressing events. Patients may recall the intubation procedure, the feeling of the breathing tube in their throat, or being unable to move ("paralyzed"). While on the breathing machine, patients may experience delirium, frightening hallucinations, and delusions. Patients with PTSD after critical illness can be hypervigilant, anxious, and troubled by intrusive thoughts, nightmares, and flashbacks that last months to years after critical illness and that PTSD negatively impacts patients' marriages, work, and quality of life and increases patients' risk of depression, anxiety, substance use disorder, and suicide. Ketamine may prevent PTSD symptoms by blocking the pathways in the brain's glutaminergic system that are responsible for the formation of traumatic memories In outpatients with chronic PTSD, a single dose of ketamine has been shown to reduce PTSD symptoms for up to 2 weeks. Even a modest reduction in PTSD would translate into tens of thousands of fewer cases of PTSD each year, more cases of PTSD each year than any other medical intervention evaluated to date.
