NHFOV as Primary Support in Very Preterm Infants With RDS
to Test the Hypothesis That NHFOV is More Effective Than nCPAP in the Treatment of Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) in Verypreterm NeonatesThis will be a prospective, multi-center, two-arms,parallel, randomized, controlled trial with a superiority design,conducted in China. The investigators conduct this multi-centre, randomized, controlled trial to test the hypothesis that NHFOV is more effective than nCPAP in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in infants with a gestational age of less than 28 weeks when used as a primary noninvasive ventilation (NIV) mode.
Closed-loop Synchronization Versus Conventional Synchronization
Acute Respiratory FailurePediatric Respiratory Distress SyndromeA prior research indicated that asynchrony between the patient and ventilator occurred in 33 percent of 19,175 breaths, and was seen in every patient. The most prevalent kind of asynchrony was ineffective triggering (68%), followed by delayed termination (19%), double triggering (4%) and premature termination (3%). Asynchrony between the patient and ventilator increased considerably with decreasing levels of peak inspiratory pressure, positive end-expiratory pressure, and set frequency.Despite this, more asynchrony categories exist, and there is no widely accepted categorization. Major asynchronies, however, include auto trigger, ineffective effort, and double trigger, while minor asynchronies include early/late cycle, trigger delay, and spontaneous breaths during a mandatory breath. This study aims to compare the safety and efficacy of a closed-loop synchronization controller with conventional control of synchronization during invasive mechanical ventilation of spontaneous breathing of pediatric patients in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
Changes in Lung Aeration and Inspiratory Effort With and Without Awake Prone
Respiratory Distress SyndromeVentilation Therapy; ComplicationsThe investigators aimed to investigate the ventilation homogeneity and transpulmonary pressure during treatments of High-flow nasal cannula(HFNC) and (CPAP) on supine and prone position for COVID-19 or non-COVID-19 patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF).
The Effect of Erythropoietin on Alveolar Fluid Clearance in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress...
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common acute and critical disease in clinic. The clinical mortality is as high as 30%-40%. At present, there is no specific treatment. Erythropoietin (EPO), also known as erythrocyte- stimulating factor, erythropoietin, has a certain amount in normal human body, mainly synthesized by liver in infants and kidneys in adults, which can stimulate erythropoiesis. In recent years, more and more studies have shown that high-dose exogenous EPO administration has benefit effects on multi-organ protection. Therefore, we designed this prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial for defecting EPO on the alveolar fluid clearance of ARDS. The study mainly answers the following questions: Does human erythropoietin accelerate the resolution of alveolar edema in ARDS? Is there any effect on hospital survival? The study will draw conclusions by comparing the control group with the experimental group.
A Study of GEn-1124 in Subjects With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
Respiratory Distress SyndromeAcuteGEn1E-1124-002 is a two-part Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GEn-1124 in subjects with ARDS. Treatment with IV infusion dosing within 48 hours of ARDS diagnosis. Subjects will be given a second dose approximately 8 hours after the first dose and will continue with twice daily dosing (BID regimen) for 5 days.
5-HT3 Receptor Antagonist and Respiratory Drive in Patients With ARDS
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeThis is a pilot study aimed at acquiring primary physiological data, describing and estimating the effects of a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist (ondansetron) on respiratory drive in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The results of this study will determine the interest and feasibility of assessing the clinical applications of ondansetron in reducing patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) in ARDS, in subsequent studies.
Add-on Reparixin in Adult Patients With ARDS
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdultStudy objectives To characterize the efficacy of reparixin in ameliorating lung injury and systemic inflammation and expediting clinical recovery and liberation from mechanical ventilation in adult patients with moderate to severe ARDS (PaO2/FIO2 ratio ≤ 200). To evaluate the safety of reparixin vs. placebo in patients enrolled in the study.
Does a Rescue Course of Betamethasone in Pregnant Women With PPROM Decrease Neonatal Morbidity?...
PPROMRespiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature InfantsThe purpose of this study is to determine if a repeat course of betamethasone given to pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) will decrease the infant's length of stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and the overall neonatal morbidity associated with this condition.
Invasive Ventilation Strategies for Neonates With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Syndrome (ARDS)...
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeBronchopulmonary Dysplasia1 moreAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in neonates has been defined in 2017.The death rate is over 50%. HFOV and CMV are two main invasive ventilation strategies. However, which one is better needing to be further elucidated.
Individualized Positive End-expiratory Pressure Guided by End-expiratory Lung Volume in the Acute...
Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdultDuring the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), patients' response to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is variable according to different degrees of lung recruitability. The search for a tool to individualize PEEP on the basis of patients' individual response is warranted. Measurement of end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) by the nitrogen washin-washout technique, bedside available from recent ICU ventilators, has been shown to reliably estimate PEEP-induced alveolar recruitment and may therefore help titrate PEEP on patient's individual requirements. The authors designed an open-label, multicenter, randomized trial to test whether an individualized PEEP setting protocol driven by EELV may improve a composite clinical outcome in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS.
