Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Insufficiency"

The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of point-of-care lung ultrasound (POC-LUS) in identifying the etiology of acute respiratory failure in pediatric patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit.

Peripheral oxygen saturation, non-invasive blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and respiratory rate are routinely used in our intensive care unit in the follow-up of patients. In the study, the patient papers will be followed and the respiratory support of the patients will be recorded and all follow-ups will be made from the patient follow-up chart. The aim of this study is to compare the CPAP and HFO methods.

The study is an exploratory retrospective observational study with the aim to describe outcome fo the cohort of patients that receive non-invasive ventilation at an intensive care unit. Main research questions are: Characteristics of the cohort. The course for the patients at the ICU. ICU-mortality and 30-day mortality Amount of patients with limitations of care. Factors associated with mortality.

This study is aimed to establish the epidemiological chacacteristics and clinical outcomes of mechanically ventilated patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure admitted in a network of hospitals from Wales (U.K.).

The aim of this study is to measure the actual use time in patients receiving supplemental oxygen using a new easy-to-use electronic remote monitoring device (TeleOx™)

Although recent global trends indicate reduced postoperative mortality after esophagectomy, major morbidity, in particular pulmonary, remains high, with considerable health and economic costs. In a recent modern international collaborative series of 2704 patients from high-volume centers, with an approximate equal mix of open and minimally invasive approaches, respiratory complications were evident in 28% of patients, pneumonia in 15%, and respiratory failure in 7%.1 In other series, respiratory failure is reported in up to 15% of patients and is the most common cause of mortality. Prediction of risk and prevention of respiratory morbidity is therefore of considerable importance, and in this context baseline assessment of respiratory physiology compliments clinical assessment, history and enhanced recovery pathways representing key elements of current patient management. In this study, which will include all prospective patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer treated at a National Center, pulmonary function will be systematically measured before and after neoadjuvant therapy. The investigators seek to evaluate the incidence of radiation induced lung injury (RILI), as well as subclinical changes in pulmonary physiology that may be linked to postoperative complications, and quality-of-life in survivorship, and to compare cohorts who received radiation therapy or chemotherapy alone, preoperatively.

The investigators aim to achieve experts consensus on respiratory interventions in management of COVID-19 related acute respiratory failure (C-ARF).

The main objective of this study is to develop a machine learning model that predicts postoperative respiratory failure within 7 postoperative day using a real-world, local preoperative and intraoperative electronic health records, not administrative codes.

Investigation of the association between PaCO2 change after extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and neurological outcome and mortality in neonates treated by ECMO for respiratory failure.

Esophageal atresia is a rare but severe malformation, and it requires early surgery. Coloesophagoplasty is surgical repair of the esophageal with an isoperistaltic transverse colon graft. In the postoperative period after coloesophagoplasty children require careful monitoring of fluid balance, because clinically significant fluid overload can lead to dysfunction of various organs and systems.
