Clinical Evaluation of a Point of Care (POC) Assay to Identify Phenotypes in the Acute Respiratory...

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

Patients prospectively classified to the hyper-inflammatory ARDS phenotype on the basis of clinical characteristics and a novel POC biomarker assay will have worse clinical outcomes than the hypo-inflammatory phenotype. Study Aim The purpose of this project is to prospectively identify hyper- and hypo-inflammatory phenotypes in patients with ARDS and determine clinical outcomes associated with each phenotype. The primary objective of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes in patients with ARDS according to their prospectively defined inflammatory phenotype determined using a POC assay. Results of group allocation will be blinded to clinical and research staff until database lock. Secondary Objectives The secondary objectives of this study are to: (i) Assess the agreement of the phenotype allocation using the POC assay and the clinical study dataset. (ii) Assess the stability of phenotype allocation over time (iii) To test feasibility of delivering a POC assay in the NHS intensive care setting.

Risk Factors of Meconium Obstruction and Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Preterm Infants

Meconium Obstruction of PrematurityRespiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature Infant

Although the pathophysiology of meconium obstruction of prematurity (MOP) is not clear, it is known that the decrease of the intestinal peristalsis due to decreased intestinal perfusion during antenatal or perinatal period. Recently, the level of citrulline has been used as an index of function and injury of the small intestine State. This study aimed to evaluate citrulline level of cord blood as a marker for early detection and observe changes in intestinal blood flow in MOP patient. And We aimed to confirm the efficacy of the AT/ET ratio (ratio of the pulmonary artery time-to-peak velocity interval to the right ventricular ejection time) of the prenatal pulmonary artery as a noninvasive predictor of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.

nHFOV Versus Invasive Conventional Ventilation for Preterm Neonates With Respiratory Distress Syndrome...

Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature Infant

Preterm neonates usually develop respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) for which they need respiratory support, which may be invasive and non-invasive depend on the availability and individual need. Non-invasive is relatively safe but non-invasive high frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) is not appropriately evaluated in neonates as primary support. So the investigators hypothesized that nHFOV is relatively safe and effective in comparison with invasive ventilation for preterm neonates with RDS.

Infantile NO Replenishment as a New Therapeutic Possibility

PrematurityRespiratory Distress Syndrome1 more

Case-control study of inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) treatment of full-term and preterm infants. The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between premature birth and its later comorbidities (neuroendocrine, metabolic, cognitive, etc) with iNO treatment and the maturation of the HPG axis during minipuberty.

Surfactant for Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome(NRDS) and Neonatal Acute Respiratory Distress...

Respiratory Distress SyndromePreterm Birth2 more

In preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS), exogenous pulmonary surfactant(PS) replacement therapy is one of the most important therapeutic breakthrough to reduce neonatal mortality. Nowadays, PS is commonly used in newborn infants with respiratory distress, but the incidences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) and/or death are inconsistent. The result indicates that not all preterm infants with respiratory distress can be beneficial from PS. In 2017, the international neonatal ARDS (NARDS) collaborative group provides the first consensus definition for NARDS. And whether or not PS being beneficial for preterm infants with NARDS remains unknown.

Inhaled Sevoflurane for ARDS Prevention

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

This study focuses on patients who are at risk of developing a serious, life-threatening respiratory disease called Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), which severely disrupts the function of their lungs. Preclinical studies have shown that the use of a volatile anesthetic agent such as Sevoflurane could be beneficial in the treatment and prevention of this respiratory condition. By improving gas exchange and attenuating pulmonary inflammation in particular, this agent would make it possible to prevent deterioration or to restore pulmonary function more rapidly. Half of the patients will receive inhaled sedation with sevoflurane and the other half will receive intravenous sedation already routinely used in participating ICUs (typically propofol, dexmedetomidine or a benzodiazepine, i.e. drugs approved for sedation). The aim of this study is to assess whether the use of Sevoflurane could be beneficial in the prevention of ARDS.

SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 Study of Next Generation Non-Invasive Passive Detection Technologies

COVID-19SARS-CoV-2 Virus4 more

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate new non-invasive passive surveillance technologies, Level 42 AI imPulse™ for the detection of COVID-19 in asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals over age of 18 undergoing COVID-19 screening and testing at BAMC Ft Sam Houston, TX; with and without COVID-19. The hypotheses are: (H1) The imPulse™ Una e-stethoscope has at least a similar discriminative and detection ability among symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 carrier versus those not infected compared to gold standard RT-PCR. Based on these promising studies, we will operationalize and deploy the imPulseTM Una e-stethoscope and other associated technology form factors into DoD use-cases. (H2) In the mid to long-term, this approach will also be explored as a diagnostic system to explore pursue the physical (structural and mechanical) properties of cells and tissues that maintain normal cell behavior (motility, growth, apoptosis), and the critical importance of the ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical stresses, which will be operationally critical for assessment of both traumatic and unconventional exposures in austere environments. Participants will: Be consented; Be screened for COVID-19 symptoms according to BAMC's current screening procedures; Have study data collected; Complete a COVID-19 symptoms questionnaire; imPulseTM Una e-stethoscope examination will be conducted; Participants will be compensated for completing all study requirements. (Active-Duty personnel must complete the study procedures while off-duty in order to receive compensation.)

Sedative Effect and Safety of Remimazolam Besylate in ARDS Patients

Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The incidence and mortality of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are high. Patients with ARDS often need mechanical ventilation. Rational use of sedation and analgesia can improve the tolerance of patients with mechanical ventilation and reduce the lung injury caused by mechanical ventilation. Currently, the main sedative drugs used in clinical practice are midazolam, propofol and dexmedetomidine, but they all have disadvantages. It is urgent to find a sedative drug that can achieve rapid and sufficient sedation, does not inhibit breathing, leads to rapid recovery after drug withdrawal and does not increase incidence of delirium. Remimazolam besylate is a newly marketed ultra-short-acting GABAa receptor agonist, which is not metabolized by liver or kidney and is easily hydrolyzed by non-specific esterase in vivo. It has rapid effect, short recovery time, continuous infusion with almost no accumulation, little influence on respiration and circulation, and can be antagonized by flumasini. Compared with the above traditional sedatives, it has obvious advantages, especially suitable for sedation in ICU patients. There are few studies on remimazolam besylate used for sedation in ICU patients. At present, there is a lack of evidence-based medical evidence for the application of remazolam besylate in ICU patients. Its efficacy and safety, potential advantages and dominant population, application dose and combination of drugs still need to be further explored and clarified. The objective of this study was to investigate the sedative effects and advantages of remimazolam besylate versus midazolam in patients with ARDS requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. The successful undergoing of this study will provide practical basis for clinical sedation in patients with ARDS mechanical ventilation.
