PAL to Improve Oral Feeding for Infants With Chronic Lung Disease

Chronic Lung Disease of PrematurityRespiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature Infant2 more

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the Pacifier Activated Lullaby (PAL) intervention on the transition to oral feeding for preterm infants with chronic lung disease and respiratory distress syndrome that require non-invasive respiratory support at 34 weeks PMA. This study will utilize a clinical trial design. Participants will be randomized into two groups. One group will receive the PAL intervention, the other group serving as a no contact control. Participants will be matched based on sex, gestational age at birth, and neurologic injury. Infants in the intervention group will receive two PAL sessions a week until successfully transitioned to <2L of respiratory support and then receive one PAL session within 24 hours of their first oral feeding attempt.

Trial of Therapeutic Hypothermia in Patients With ARDS

Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdult

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a serious condition that occurs as a complication of medical and surgical diseases, has a mortality of ~40%, and has no known treatment other than optimization of support. Data from basic research, animal models, and retrospective studies, case series, and small prospective studies suggest that therapeutic hypothermia (TH) similar to that used for cardiac arrest may be lung protective in patients with ARDS; however, shivering is a major complication of TH, often requiring paralysis with neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) to control. Since the recently completed NHLBI PETAL ROSE trial showed that NMBA had no effect (good or bad) in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, the CHILL trial is designed to evaluate whether TH combined with NMBA is beneficial in patients with ARDS. This Phase IIb randomized clinical trial is funded by the Department of Defense to compare TH (core temperature 34-35°C) + NMBA for 48h vs. usual temperature management in patients in 14 clinical centers with the Clinical Coordination Center and Data Coordinating Center at University of Maryland Baltimore. Planned enrollment is 340 over ~3.5 years of the 4-year contract. COVID-19 is considered an ARDS risk-factor and patients with ARDS secondary to COVID-19 pneumonia will be eligible for enrollment. Primary outcome is 28-day ventilator-free days. Secondary outcomes include safety, physiologic measures, mortality, hospital and ICU length of stay, and serum biomarkers collected at baseline and on days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7.

SEvoflurane for Sedation in ARds

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

This study evaluates whether a sedation with inhaled sevoflurane will decrease mortality and increase time off the ventilator at 28 days in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Half of the patients will receive inhaled sedation with sevoflurane and the other half will receive intravenous sedation with propofol.

Early PReserved SPONtaneous Breathing Activity in Mechanically Ventilated Patients With ARDS (PReSPON)...

Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdult

The potential benefits of preserved early spontaneous breathing activity during mechanical ventilation are an increased aeration of dependent lung regions, less need for sedation, improved cardiac filling, and better matching of pulmonary ventilation and perfusion and thus oxygenation. Two small randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) reported less time on mechanical ventilation and in the intensive care unit (ICU) with preserved early spontaneous breathing activity during Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV). Debate exists over the net effects of preserved early spontaneous breathing activity with regard to ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI). In fact, by taking advantage of the potential improvement in oxygenation and recruitment at lower inflation pressures associated with APRV, physicians could possibly reduce potentially harmful levels of inspired oxygen, tidal volume, and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). However, spontaneous breathing during mechanical ventilation has the potential to generate less positive pleural pressures that may add to the alveolar stretch applied from the ventilator and contribute to the risk of VALI. This has led to an ongoing controversy whether an initial period of controlled mechanical ventilation with deep sedation and neuromuscular blockade or preserved early spontaneous breathing activity during mechanical ventilation is advantageous with respect to outcomes in ARDS patients. A RCT investigating the effects of early spontaneous breathing activity on mortality in moderate to severe ARDS has been highly recommended in the research agenda for intensive care medicine. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preserved spontaneous breathing activity during APRV in the early phase of moderate to severe ARDS.

Post-Market Study of Low-flow ECCO2R Using PrismaLung+

Mild to Moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

PrismaLung+ is indicated to provide extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) as a stand-alone therapy or in combination with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). This study is intended for patients with increased levels of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in their blood and ≥ 18 years old, and will treat patients with mild or moderate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using PrismaLung+. The study will assess tidal volume reduction and confirm the safety of PrismaLung+.

Effect of Chest Physiotherapy on the Development of Preterm Infants.

DevelopmentInfant1 more

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the stimulation of "reflex rolling" from the Vojta method and the effect of the expiratory flow increase technique on the development of the preterm infants. In the same way, it will be assessed whether the application of these techniques produce pain. This application will be carried out in preterm infants of less than 32 weeks of gestation with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (SDR) and carriers of mechanical ventilation. The intervention will take place in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) The intervention period is one month (4 weeks) and different follow-ups will be carried out at term age, at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of corrected age.

Effects of Blood Pulsatility on Von Willebrand Factor During ECCO2R

Extracorporeal CO2 RemovalAcute Respiratory Distress Syndrome2 more

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that the ECCO2R pulsatile configuration prevents the Willebrand factor high molecular weight multimers decrease observed under continuous blood flow configurations. The secondary objectives are to quantify the CO2 extracorporeal removal in the pulsatile configuration, to describe complications (hemorrhagic, thrombotic and hemolytic), to describe patients' gas exchanges under ECCO2R, to describe the clinical course of the patients under ECCO2R as well as during the whole stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
