Filter by:Observational study in two medical-surgical intensive care units of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital to develop a composite score for prediction of 72h-extubation failure in patients at risk of extubation failure.
The study focuses on regional lung examination, in particular on the differentiation between collapsed and hyperinflated lung areas. The purpose of the study is to elaborate common and discriminative elements between different lung imaging modalities in infants and to generate hypotheses for the bedside use of EIT and LUS in infants.
This study aims to adopt a multi-center large sample size study to define (1) the normal range of Chinese ONSD; (2) ONSD diagnosis for patients with high intracranial pressure; (3) to analyze the correlation between ONSD and intracranial pressure.
The identification of optimal ultrasonografic tecniques for determining the location , size and the surgical methods of intestinal endometriotric nodules
The first case of COVID-19 was identified on December 19 and the world is actually experiencing a pandemic. The surgical procedure in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection involves the exposure of other patients and the group of health workers who face the care of the patient. Thus, screening with lung ultrasound is an alternative to identify patients with an established or suspected infection that requires urgent surgery. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determinate the operational characteristics of lung ultrasound during the screening process for SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with an indication for urgent surgery.
This study is a prospective observational research approved by the Ethics Committee of the Peking Union medical college Hospital. Patients scheduled for elective non-abdominal and non-thoracic surgery among age of 19-65 years and American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification(ASA) I or II were inrolled. Diaphragm ultrasonogram was measured pre and post operation. Diaphragm excursion and diaphragm thickening fraction during quiet breathing as well as deep breathing were assessed. Neuromuscular monitor was performed during operation, after proper calibration.
New type of imaging method is in demand clinically for early detection and treatment guiding of RA. Photoacoustic imaging (PAI), a hot spot in medical imaging society, which combines the merits of optical imaging and US and has a capacity in morphological, functional and molecular imaging, has shown potential in visualizing superficial organs, including small joints. The investigators developed a multi-modal photoacoustic/ultrasound (PA/US) imaging system, equipped with a handheld 3D PA/US probe, which wass able to provide 3D volume data of dual-wavelength PA imaging of small joints, in addition to real-time 2D PA/US imaging. The investigators plan to recruit RA patients in different disease conditions and healthy volunteers to receive the 2D and 3D PA/US examination on the 2nd and 3rd MCP, PIP joints and wrist joints using this imaging system, and to evaluate the potential clinical role of the imaging system in RA, and its added value to current imaging methods.
The test subjects were selected from patients with clinical manifestations in muscle tone and healthy volunteers. Elbow flexor is the main target muscle. Fifty patients and 50 healthy subjects were given three assessment methods to measure muscle tension: modified Ashworth rating scale, elastic ultrasound technology and surface electromyography, and the data obtained by these three methods will be statistically analyzed and discussed.
The purpose of the study is search the interrater and intrarater reliability of the quadriceps muscle using rehabilitative ultrasound imaging and search for an association between sarcopenia and quadriceps muscle in poststroke patients.
A randomized controlled study to search for the efficiency of tibial nerve block vs local corticosteroid injection of the plantar fascia.
