NRS 2002 as a Predictor of Prognosis in COPD With Respiratory Failure

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive1 more

This is a prospective study of patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with respiratory failure and admitted in West China Hospital during April 2017 to March 2019. The following variables will be prospectively studied: age, sex, height, weight, respiratory function indicators, arterial blood gas analysis results, biochemical data, nutritional risk screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score, short-term and long-term prognostic outcomes. The purpose of this study is to assess whether NRS 2002 is a useful prognosis predictor in COPD patients with respiratory failure.

NIV-NAVA vs NIV-PS/PC in Respiratory Insufficiency

Respiratory InsufficiencyAcute Respiratory Insufficiency

This study evaluates the difference between Non Invasive Ventilation with Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NIV-NAVA) and Conventional Non Invasive Ventilation with Pressure Support (PS) or Pressure Control (PC). All the patients are ventilated in each mode for 4 hours. Afterwards they will be subjected to a semi-structured interview where they will be asked to compare the two modes. The hypothesis is that NIV-NAVA will correct patients power of Hydrogen (pH), PaCO2 og PaO2 more quickly than NIV-PS and NIV-NAVA is more comfortable for the patients.

CPAP Reduces Hypoxemia After Cardiac Surgery

Acute Respiratory Failure Requiring Reintubation

The aim of study is to evaluate whether the application of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) after extubation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery can reduce hypoxemia and re-intubation rate.

Microcirculation in Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Life Support

Heart FailureRespiratory Failure

Extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) life support system can provide both cardiac and respiratory support to patients with heart and respiratory failure. It can save time for these organs to recovery or for these patients to receive further management. However, many patients will die in spite of ECMO support. One of the key factor is whether the blood flow provided by the ECMO can meet the requirement of organ perfusion. The adequacy of macrocirculation may be determined by arterial pressure and minute blood flow of ECMO. However, the adequacy of microcirculation remains as a major unresolved clinical problem. This is a prospective observational clinical trial. The sublingual microcirculation will be examined with the incident dark field video microscope within 6 hours after venoarterial ECMO placement, and then at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h. The severity of multiple organ injury and clinical data will be recorded as well. The major parameters of microcirculation include total small vessel density, perfused small vessel density, and microvascular flow index. The sublingual microcirculation will also be examined before weaning off ECMO, within 6 hours after ECMO removal, and then at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. Serum level of endothelial cell specific molecule-1 at specific time points will be examined. The data of 14-day mortality, 28-day mortality, duration of ECMO support, and intensive care unit stay will be recorded. This study aims primarily to investigate the relationship between microcirculation and prognosis of these patients. This study will also investigate the relationship among serum level of endothelial cell specific molecule-1, microcirculation, and prognosis of these patients. Wish the results of this study can be applied in further research to help to improve the quality of ECMO care.

Complication of Surgical ProcedureAcute Respiratory Failure4 more

Prospective Evaluation of a RIsk Score for postoperative pulmonary COmPlications in Europe (PERISCOPE) is a multi-centre, international observational study of a random-sample cohort of patients undergoing a nonobstetric in-hospital surgical procedure under general or regional anaesthesia during a continued 7-day period of recruitment.

Extubation Readiness and Neuroventilatory Efficiency After Acute Respiratory Failure

Respiratory Failure

The aim of this study was to compare the indices of rapid shallow breathing, neuromechanical efficiency (NME), and neuroventilatory efficiency (NVE) between patients being successfully extubated and those who failed weaning.
