The purpose of this study is to determine whether Benralizumab reduces the exacerbation rate in patients with a history of asthma exacerbations and uncontrolled asthma receiving ICS-LABA with or without oral corticosteroids and additional asthma controllers.
The goal of this observational study is to determine if Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) improves lung compliance in children receiving conventional invasive mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does IPV improve lung compliance 15 minutes after and 3 hours after receiving one treatment in a heterogeneous group of pediatric patients? 2. Does IPV improve lung compliance in patients with Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (PARDS), and what is the degree of change compared to those without PARDS? 3. What is the effect of IPV on lung compliance according to PARDS severity (mild-moderate disease vs. severe disease). 4. What is the incidence of adverse effects of IPV? Participants will receive IPV because their medical team feels it will help their lung recovery and has already determined them to be safe candidates to receive this therapy, which is a standard airway clearance modality already routinely used in our PICU. Nothing additional will happen to participants as a result of this study. Enrolling in this study simply gives the study team permission to collect specific health information that identifies your child for research purposes, which may include results from medical tests found in their medical record and information from your child's bedside monitor and ventilator. This information will be collected before and after the IPV treatments to evaluate their response to the therapy.
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.
This observational clinical trial is designed to confirm whether RESP™ Biosensor could be deployed to support clinical decision making in challenging pediatric cases, minimize clinician-to-clinician variability in lung sound interpretation, obviate the need to disrupt change of shift or chart rounds with physicians, and create a durable archive of the patient's lung sounds for longitudinal comparison within or across hospitalizations.
This study a randomized, double-blind, four arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LYT-100 compared to pirfenidone or placebo in adults with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.
The Investigators plan a single center study to get preliminary data to answer a number of fundamental questions directly related to management of COPD. The research will determine whether ventilation heterogeneity and distribution of ventilation inform, determine, assist or drive the: 1) status or clinical course in patients with COPD, 2) understanding of factors associated with activities of daily living and quality of life in patients , 3) risk of exacerbation or hospitalization in those with COPD, and 4) predictors of therapeutic pathway or treatment regime.
This study is being conducted in two parts, A and B. Part A is a randomized, double-blind, parallel arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LYT-100 compared to placebo in adults with post-acute COVID-19 respiratory complications. Part B is an Open Label Extension (OLE) study for patients who complete Part A.
This is a collaborative study between Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals and up to 9 other clinical centers across the US to determine the effect of nintedanib on slowing the rate of lung disease in patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, and have ongoing lung injury more than 30 days out from their diagnosis. Required one of the following after diagnosis with SARS-CoV-2: supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula, high flow oxygen, non invasive ventilation such as CPAP or BIPAP, or mechanical ventilation or a history of desaturation below 90%.
The study aims to assess the potential benefit and evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of VIB7734 in hospitalized patients with documented infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) with pulmonary involvement. Subjects will be administered a single dose of VIB7734 injected under the skin, assessed for efficacy for 28 days and followed for an additional 42 days.
The diagnosis of a lung function anomaly requires the evaluation of pulmonary function by spirometry. However, some patients (e.g. children, elderly, or diseased individuals) may have difficulty performing the related forced maximal respiratory maneuver correctly. Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) measures lung impedance during tidal breathing, requiring minimal patient cooperation. The purpose of this study is to establish the diagnostic accuracy of FOT parameters alone or in combination with lung volumes in detecting lung function anomalies as compared with spirometry and with the diagnosis made by the physician.
The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of point-of-care lung ultrasound (POC-LUS) in identifying the etiology of acute respiratory failure in pediatric patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit.
The purpose of this study is to test if the vaccine is working well in COPD patients aged 40 to 80 years old to reduce episodes of worsening symptoms ("exacerbations") and to gather further information on safety and immune response. In the current study, COPD patients with a history of acute exacerbations will receive 2 doses of the investigational vaccine or placebo intramuscularly according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care. The effect of vaccination against two pathogens known to cause exacerbations (Non-typeable Haemophilus influenza \[NTHi\] and Moraxella catarrhalis \[Mcat\]) will be evaluated at pre-defined timepoints (scheduled study visits). In addition to the scheduled study visits, additional study visit(s) and/ or phone contact(s) will take place for each acute exacerbation of COPD occurring from first vaccination up to study conclusion.
The objective of this study is to look at the effects of distractive auditory stimuli (DAS) on reducing dyspnea intensity and related anxiety and increasing exercise tolerance. Investigators hope that compared to a no-music control condition, that under a music condition participants with COPD will (a) demonstrate increased self-paced walk distance and enjoyment; (b) have less dyspnea intensity, (c) experience less dyspnea anxiety; (d) have less fatigue and state anxiety; and (e) higher maximum heart rate. The upbeat music with a tempo of 90 - 100 bpm (an average-to-moderate walking tempo) is expected to have distractive and performance enhancing effects in order to increase tolerance to dyspnea and exercise. The long-term goal of this study is to increase physical activity in adults with COPD and RLD by promoting dyspnea and fatigue management through use of distractive auditory stimuli in the form of music.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe (xenon) gas MRI for regional assessment of lung function in a normal population of adults for the purposes of obtaining optimal images through MRI.
