This observational study evaluates the effectiveness of the WearME system in monitoring COPD severity and respiratory function by comparing its measurements to standard spirometry, capnography, and other clinical assessments in 128 COPD participants.
The goal of this observational study is collect data to evaluate the efficacy of the RMS system in monitoring, recording, and presenting respiratory function data to the user in participants scheduled for pulmonary function testing (PFT). Participants will complete: * 60 episodes of data collection with a decreased tidal volume * 30 episodes of data collection with an increased tidal volume * 80 episodes with normal tidal volume breathing The TSS will continuously transmit sound data to an adjacent personal computer (PC) via Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE). TSS trachea sound data will be recorded on the PC and then transmitted via a secure wireless network to an RTM cloud account that is HIPPA compliant. Reference breathing data will be simultaneously recorded using an FDA approved hospital ventilator (Hamilton Medical, HAMILTON-C1) with a calibrated pneumotach, capnometer, and a tight-fitting face mask. This system accurately measures and records a spontaneously breathing patient's RR, TV, MV, and end-tidal carbon dioxide concentration.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of mRNA-1345 in participants who have been previously vaccinated with either Arexvy or Abrysvo at least 12 months prior to enrollment, are medically stable and aged ≥60 years.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of NAL ER and to evaluate its effect on respiratory function in participants with IPF.
This study is a Phase I clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles with single intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) doses of ENA-001.
This study is a cluster randomized trial across 10 hospitals, stratified by hospital size (hospitals with greater than 100 mechanically ventilated patients a year will be classified as large, while those with 100 or fewer will be classified as small). Randomization will occur at the hospital level, ensuring an even distribution of large and small hospitals between study arms. Hospitals assigned to the intervention group will implement an EHR-based strategy designed to enhance adherence to lung-protective ventilation (LPV) for a 9-month intervention period, after which the strategy will be rolled out to all hospitals. The intervention focuses on modifying the ventilator order within the Electronic Health Record (EHR) to encourage default settings aligned with LPV principles. This study design allows for comparison of patient outcomes before and after implementation within each hospital while also enabling simultaneous comparisons between hospitals that have and have not yet received the intervention. The cluster randomization approach is necessary, given the order is controlled at the hospital level.
This phase II trial tests how well remdesivir works for treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection of the upper respiratory tract in patients receiving cellular or bispecific antibody therapy. Cellular or bispecific antibody therapies cause suppression of the immune system, making infections more frequent and reducing the body's ability to fight the infections. RSV infections are one of the most common respiratory infections in immunocompromised individuals and can cause significant pneumonia and even death. Remdesivir is in a class of medications called antivirals. It works by stopping viruses from spreading in the body.
This study aims to use mass spectrometry techniques to analyze exhaled patient breath in non-COVID ICU-admitted patients requiring ventilation for a rapid and accurate early detection of pulmonary diseases and inflammatory markers.
Ventilator associated events (VAE) is a quality metric defined by 48 hours of stability followed by 48 hours of escalation of ventilator settings within the ICU. VAE have been associated with poor outcomes and increases the cost of care, yet is not easy to avoid. Operationalizing all the standards of care known to improve outcomes of those requiring mechanical ventilation in the critical care environment requires a comprehensive approach. ICU teams are encouraged to follow best practice protocols to help liberate and prevent VAEs. Yet, compliance with protocols in most ICUs is suboptimal for multiple reasons. With the advent of computerized mechanical ventilators capable of streaming data from breath to breath and biomedical integration systems (BMDI) such as Capsule (UTMB's BMDI system), software systems have been developed to help identify variances in the standard of care. Automation in near real-time ventilator data feedback has been shown to reduce the incidences of VAEs. This quality improvement project will leverage Vyaire's Respiratory Knowledge Portal (RKP) to collect and store meaningful data regarding ventilator-associated events (VAE), alarm policy compliance, ventilator weaning, and lung protective analytics. Goals: 1. To collect quality metrics utilizing RKP from patients requiring mechanical ventilation over a 3-4-month period for a retrospective baseline analysis. 2. Provide the RKP tool to the ICU team to determine if the use of RKP's webportal and Messenger Zebra phone app improves quality of mechanical ventilation and outcomes. 3. To determine a return on investment (ROI) for a software system like RKP.
The goal of this observational study is to determine whether a marker of dead space (the end-tidal to alveolar dead space fraction \[AVDSf\]) is more strongly associated with mortality risk than markers of oxygenation abnormality (oxygenation index) and to determine whether dead space (AVDSf) is an important marker of heterogeneity in the inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) treatment effect for children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The study aims are: 1. To validate AVDSf for risk stratification of mortality in pediatric ARDS 2. To determine if there is heterogeneity in treatment effect for iNO defined by AVDSf 3. To detect the association between AVDSf and microvascular dysfunction trajectory and whether iNO therapy modifies this association This is a prospective, multicenter observational study of 1260 mechanically ventilated children with moderate to severe ARDS. In a subgroup of 450 children with severe ARDS, longitudinal blood samples will be obtained to measure plasma protein markers.
