Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Tract (Lung and Bronchial) Diseases"

The Sentinel-001 study aims to identify a combination of biomarkers suitable for triage of breathlessness.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea may cause dizziness or vertigo through hypoxia of the vestibular nuclei in the brain. Treating sleep apnea may improve dizziness or vertigo.

Respiratory weaning failure worsens prognostic of patients following on-pump cardiac surgery. There are increasing evidences that pulmonary, diaphragmatic or cardiologic echographies are useful in order to improve this critical medical status. Based both on a previous study conducted in the critical care unit of Purpan and on literature we hypothesize that a combined thoracic echography score could be of interest. We make the hypothesis that the use of a score based on thoracic combined echography (ETC = cardiac, pulmonary and diaphragmatic) allows to predict the failure of respiratory weaning in cardiac surgery and allows to improve the characterization of the causes of this failure

This pilot trial studies patient function/fitness and psychosocial health in improving health-related quality of life and decreasing treatment-related toxicity in patients with stage I-IV non-small cell lung cancer. Studying function/fitness and psychosocial health may help doctors improve conventional therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

This is a prospective, longitudinal observational study to provide data regarding the natural course of hypercapnia in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia using both available blood pCO2 and measured capnography, as well as relate the degree and trend of hypercapnia to later respiratory outcomes.

The primary objective of this research is to monitor chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) symptoms in asthma patients who are undergoing treatment with reslizumab. A secondary objective is to explore whether there are sub-populations that appear to benefit or not benefit from reslizumab in terms of their CRS symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to learn about discussion between clinicians and their patients related to lung screening. Survey answers will be collected from both clinicians and their patients.

A biospecimen collection study from individuals with EGFR mutant cancers resistant to EGFR TKIs or those harboring an Exon 20 insertion mutation.

The ballistocardiography (BCG) and the seismocardiography (SCG) are old techniques recording the vibrations at the skin level generated by the acceleration and displacement of the blood and cardiac mass at each cardiac contraction. The former records the acceleration near the subject's center of mass, the latter at the local chest wall. So far, the unclear physiological origin of those acceleration signals has led to important ambiguities in their scientific and clinical interpretation. Therefore, several ongoing studies would aim to highlight the physiological genesis of those acceleration-induced signals. Indeed, the main objective of this study is to correlate the BCG and SCG signals recorded at the body surface with several haemodynamic parameters recorded invasively during a cardiac catheterisation, pulmonary pressure, wedge pressure, cardiac output to cite a few.

This study is a comparison of the ID Now COVID-19 (Abbott) assay to the Accula SARS-CoV-2 (Mesa Biotech) assay to assist in the identification of infection with COVID-19. The tests will be compared for sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.
