COVID-19Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)This was a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter, dose escalation and proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of razuprotafib, administered 3 times daily (TID) (every 8 hours [Q8H]), in hospitalized subjects with moderate to severe Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) receiving standard of care therapy. The study was planned to include 2 parts with Part 1 comprising the dose escalation period of the study and Part 2 comprising the proof-of-concept safety and efficacy period of the study.
Inhaled Prostaglandin E1 (IPGE1) for Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (NHRF)
PrematurityRespiratory Insufficiency3 moreThis is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) on the use of Inhaled prostaglandin E1 (IPGE1) in Neonatal Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (NHRF). Fifty patients recruited at 10 high volume sites within the NICHD Neonatal Research Network will constitute a pilot sample to evaluate the feasibility and safety of prolonged IPGE1 administration and determination of optimal dose. In this Pilot RCT, two doses of IPGE1 (300 and 150 ng/kg/min) will be administered over a maximum duration of 72 hours and compared with placebo. Once feasibility and safety of IPGE1 administered over 72 hours has been demonstrated in the pilot trial, a full scale randomized controlled trial will be planned.
Flow-flow ECCO2-R and 4 ml/kg Tidal Volume vs. 6 ml/kg Tidal Volume to Enhance Protection From VILI...
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeThe main objective of this randomized multicenter clinical trial is to test the hypothesis that further reduction of VT to 4mL/kg may enhance lung protection in patients with ARDS as compared to the conventional "ARDS-Net" ventilation. Control of PaCO2 in the ~4 ml/kg arm would be accomplished by LFPPV- ECCO2-R.
Biomarkers of Lung Injury With Low Tidal Volume Ventilation Compared With Airway Pressure Release...
Acute Lung InjuryAdult Respiratory Distress SyndromeAcute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) represent a spectrum of clinical syndromes of rapid respiratory system deterioration that are associated with both pulmonary and systemic illness. These syndromes are associated with 30-40% mortality with our current standard of care and are responsible for approximately 75,000 deaths in the US yearly. Current evidence-based care of ALI consists of a strategy of mechanical ventilation utilizing low lung volumes (ARDSNet ventilation) intended to limit further stretch-induced lung injury exacerbated by the ventilator. However, this strategy has been shown to be associated with increased lung injury in a subset of patients and still is associated with about a 30% mortality rate. Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a different, non-experimental strategy of mechanical ventilation currently in routine clinical use. APRV is a pressure-cycled ventilator mode that allows a patient a greater degree of autonomy in controlling his or her breathing pattern than ARDSNet ventilation. Use of APRV has been associated with better oxygenation, less sedative usage, and less ventilator-associated pneumonia in small studies compared with other ventilator modes. However, debate exists over whether APRV might result in decreased or increased ventilator-associated lung injury when compared with ARDSNet ventilation. We intend to implement a randomized, cross over study looking at biomarkers of lung injury in patients with acute lung injury during ventilation with APRV and using the ARDSNet protocol. Our hypothesis is that airway pressure release ventilation is associated with lower levels of lung injury biomarkers than ARDSNet ventilation.
Early Versus Delayed Enteral Feeding and Omega-3 Fatty Acid/Antioxidant Supplementation for Treating...
Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdultAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI) are medical conditions that occur when there is severe inflammation and increased fluids in both lungs, making it difficult for the lungs to function properly. Hospital treatment for a person with ALI/ARDS often includes the use of a breathing machine, or ventilator, until the person is able to breathe without assistance. Initiating proper nutrition through a feeding tube early in a person's hospital stay may help to improve recovery, but the optimal timing, composition, and amount of feeding treatments are unknown. This study will evaluate whether early or delayed full-calorie feeding through a feeding tube is more effective in reducing recovery time and increasing survival rates in people with ALI/ARDS. The study will also determine whether supplementing the feedings with omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants benefits people with ALI/ARDS.

SepsisAcute Respiratory Distress SyndromeTitle: Study of Biomarkers in Blood and Alveolar Lavage Fluid Samples of Sepsis Patients Complicated With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Research center: Single-center study. Design of the research: A prospective and cohort study. Object of the research: Patients(age≥18 years)those who meet the diagnostic criteria of sepsis complicated with ARDS and grouped into ARDS group and non-ARDS adults receiving mechanical ventilation as control. Sample size of the research: Not less than 30 patients in each group. Research approach: After admission to ICU, patients who meet the criteria are divided into mild group and moderate/severe group according to the severity of ARDS. In addition, blood and alveolar lavage fluid were collected within 24 hours for metabonomics analysis, and differential metabolites were screened out to prove the differentiation ability of differential metabolites between mild and moderate/severe ARDS patients. Then, MSEA and STITCH analysis were performed, and the relationship between different metabolites, HO-1 protein, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers in serum and alveolar lavage fluid were determined. And whether differential metabolites are associated with 28-day mortality in patients with moderate/severe ARDS. Aim of the research: The metabolomics techniques were used to compare the differences between sepsis patients with mild ARDS and moderate/severe ARDS. And determine the relationship between different metabolites, HO-1 protein, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers, as well as the predictive effect of metabolites on 28-day mortality in patients. Statistical analysis: Analytical study. The estimated duration of the study:1-2 years.
