Filter by:This is a prospective observational single-center study in which the association of Protein-Energy Adequacy and 28-Days of Mortality among critically ill patients with Acute Kidney Injury, AKI will be investigated. The association of Protein-Energy adequacy with a length of ICU and hospital stay, total ventilator, and inotropic drug days among critically ill patients with AKI also will be investigated.
Comparing the efficacy of Intracthecal Baclofen dose between the Prometra II and Medtronic SynchroMed II for patients with spasticity and with current a current SyncroMed II pump needing replacement.
This is a study comparing the effects of blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy on the maturation of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) graft after reconstruction surgery compared to physical therapy without the use of BFR.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of intrathecal transplantation of autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells for the treatment of traumatic acute spinal cord injury. Spinal cord injury can be divided into three phases, which are acute (within 2 weeks), sub-acute (2 weeks to 6 months), and chronic (over 6 months). Early treatment is the key to improve the prognosis, however, the majority of clinic trails nowadays are focusing on sub-acute or chronic phase because it takes 4-6 weeks to expand the autologous stem cells. In this study, the investigators will treat patients with acute spinal cord injury with autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells and compare with the control group.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most important factors associated with increased mortality in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (AoCLF). Early identification and treatment of this subgroup of patients may improve survival and decrease ICU length of stay. As kidney ischemia is one of the main mechanisms responsible for AKI in AoCLF, an increase in urinary to arterial partial pressure of oxygen may help in the early diagnosis of renal failure. For this arterial and urinary oxygen pressure will be measured at ICU admission, on day 1 and day 3 of ICU stay. Diagnosis of AKI within the first 28 days after ICU admission will be recorded
Only limited data exist on the benefit of online hemodiafiltration in patient with Acute kidney injury. The objective of this pilot RCT is to assess the feasibility of a large multicentre RCT to determine whether, in patients with AKI requiring acute renal replacement therapy, does exposure to Online Hemodiafiltration reduce the inflammatory status and improve renal recovery compared to conventional intermittent hemodialysis at the ICU.
Hemocoagulation disorder is recognized to have crucial effects on hemorrhagic or ischemic diseases. Coagulation-related damages secondary to traumatic brain injury are common and severe secondary insults of head trauma and often leads to a poor prognosis. In this study, we sought to assess if posttraumatic hemocoagulation disorders determined using thromboelastography are associated with coagulation-related damages secondary to traumatic brain injury, and evaluate their influence on outcome among patients with head trauma. Based on above results, prediction models or risk scoring systems will be further developed and validated to predict coagulation-related damages secondary to traumatic brain injury.
Tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces head injury deaths. The CRASH-4 trial aims to assess the effects of early intramuscular TXA on intracranial haemorrhage, disability, death, and dementia in older adults with symptomatic mild head injury
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the safety and potential therapeutic effects of autologous, culture-expanded, adipose derived mesenchymal stem cell intrathecal injections in the treatment of spinal cord injury.
The investigators present a randomised open label phase Ib/IIa trial of nebulised unfractionated heparin to evaluate the effect of nebulised unfractionated heparin on the procoagulant response in ICU patients with SARS-CoV-2 requiring advanced respiratory support. As this is one of the first studies of nebulised heparin in COVID 19 lung disease the investigators will assess safety as a co-primary outcome.
