Multiple Dosing of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Patients With ARDS (COVID-19)
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeARDS (Moderate or Severe)1 moreThis is a multi-center, randomized, placebo controlled, interventional phase 2A trial to evaluate the safety profile and potential efficacy of multi-dosing of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) for patients with SARS-CoV-2 associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). After informed consent, treatment assignment will be made by computer-generated randomization to administer either MSC or vehicle placebo control with a 2:1 allocation to the MSC: placebo arm.
Safety and Efficacy Study of Inhaled Carbon Monoxide to Treat Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome...
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeThis study will be a multi-center, prospective, randomized, partially double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial of inhaled CO (iCO) for the treatment of ARDS. The trial will be conducted at 7 tertiary care medical centers including Weill Cornell Medicine/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Duke University Hospital, Durham Veterans Administration Medical Center, New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, and Duke Regional Hospital. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inhaled carbon monoxide (iCO) for the treatment of ARDS and to examine the biologic readouts of low dose iCO therapy in patients with ARDS
Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Therapy For The Treatment Of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
ARDSHuman1 moreThis is an open label, dose escalating safety study of the advanced therapy investigational medicinal product (ATIMP) KI-MSC-PL-205, where patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2-induced severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), according to the Berlin Definition, and who are on respirator/ventilator (used synonymously in this protocol) support due to respiratory insufficiency with or without concomitant circulatory problems, will be included and treated with a single dose of KI-MSC-PL-205.
A Study Promoting Critical Illness Recovery in the Elderly
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeCritical Illness1 moreThis proposal will test the hypothesis that EARLY application of a novel early rehabilitation therapy in critically ill patients will improve functional outcomes, and change the functional trajectory of this population. A pilot study of early mobilization with a cycle ergometer will be performed and translate into humans the pre-clinical mechanisms that may mediate the effects of early mobility. A second phase of the study was added in September 2019, which will focus on clinical outcomes.
Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Prognosticators in Pediatric Oncology Patients With Sepsis
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeSepsis1 moreThe overall purpose of this protocol is to identify subacute sepsis-associated cardiac disease in pediatric patients with cancer by CMR and evaluate the CMR findings during their follow-up. This will help inform heart failure management decision making. Evidence of dysfunction or elevated T2 values may inform adjustment of afterload reduction and beta blocker administration, and elevated ECV findings will suggest the need for increased surveillance for diastolic dysfunction. Primary Objectives: (Feasibility Phase) To determine the feasibility of cardiac MRI without anesthesia in the immediate post-sepsis period in children with cancer. CMR scanning will be completed within 10 days of presentation - this will allow us to ensure that possible hemodynamic or respiratory instability and renal dysfunction has resolved prior to transport to the MRI scanner during the most acute phase of illness. (Completion Phase) To estimate the frequency of subacute sepsis-associated cardiac disease, including myocardial inflammation and dysfunction, in the post-acute phase (within 10 days of presentation) of severe sepsis in children with cancer
Speckle Tracking and Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
ARDSRight VentricleAcute cor pulmonale is one of deadly complications of mechanically ventilated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which can lead to right ventricular dysfunction and worsen the hemodynamics of the patient. For several years, transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) have replaced the pulmonary artery catheter to monitor cardiac function reliably and non-invasively. Speckle tracking is an echocardiographic technique that allows a two-dimensional strain (2D) analysis of right ventricular systolic function. Right ventricular global strain (RVGLS) is a strain parameter, allowing an early and more accurate diagnosis of right ventricular dysfunction than conventional parameters. This project will consist of performing TTE and TEE measurements at H0, 30min, H1, H2, and H24 after iNO administration in patient with ARDS under mechanical ventilation. The patient will be declared responder to iNO, if there is an increase of more than 20% of the PaO2/FiO2. 30 minutes after a dose of 10ppm of iNO.
Two Different Ventilatory Strategies in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Due to Community-acquired...
Community-acquired PneumoniaAcute Respiratory Distress SyndromeRandomized Controlled Trial Comparing Two Different Ventilatory Strategies in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Due to Community-acquired Pneumonia. The control strategy will be based on ARDSNet approach. The intervention group will receive a different ventilatory strategy based on positive end-expiratory pressure tailored according to compliance and limited driving pressure.

Pharmacological Action of DrugIt is a randomized, prospective study; it will be carried out in the NICU at Alzahraa University Hospital including 50 newborn babies diagnosed with respiratory distress syndrome. The purpose of this study is to : Investigate the protective caffeine on necrotizing enterocolitis in respiratory distress syndrome preterm infants. Detect the impact of caffeine protocol treatment on the in-incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis in respiratory distress syndrome preterm infants in neonatal intensive care 1- Control group It includes preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome aged 32 weeks-35 weeks. 2- Caffeine-treated group It includes preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome who received caffeine treatment as intravenous caffeinospire (Caffeine citrate) 60 mg / 3 ml (20 mg /ml) 3 ml vial for injection.
