Effects of High Flow Nasal Cannula on Sputum Clearance in Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Acute exacerbation of COPD usually presents with more sputum production leading to worsening airflow obstruction. Often patients complain of sensation of sputum (phlegm) stuck in throat, which leads to worsening cough and respiratory distress. In an acute exacerbation setting high flow nasal cannula (HFNC), which is a modality that provides …
Lung Surgery With Enhanced Recovery VS. Lung Surgery Without Enhanced Recovery
Objective: The adoption of Enhanced Recovery Surgery programs in lung resection is relatively recent with limited outcome data. This study aimed to determine the impact of an Enhanced Recovery Surgery pathway on short- term and long- term results in patients undergoing lung resection for primary lung cancer. Methods: A Randomized …
Selfcare MAnagement InteRvenTion in COPD (SMART COPD)
To evaluate whether a digital support and communication platform for COPD patients after 6 months provides: Decreased breathlessness on the basis of modified medical research council dyspnea scale [mMRC] Improved health status and symptom relief based on COPD assessment scale [CAT] Improved quality of life based on EQ-5D Reduction in …
Quality-of-Life Management for COPD Patients
The investigators aim to investigate the effects of a telemonitoring and chatbot-based application of "Living well with COPD" (CAir) on health-related quality-of-life in patients with COPD.
Lorlatinib Combinations in Lung Cancer
This research study is evaluating Lorlatinib in combination with Crizotinib or Binimetinib as a possible treatment for either anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive lung cancer or ROS1-positive lung cancer. This research study involves three study drugs. Lorlatinib Binimetinib Crizotinib
Doxapram Therapy in Preterm Infants (DOXA Trial)
Preterm infants often suffer from apnea of prematurity (AOP; a cessation of breathing) due to immaturity of the respiratory system. AOP can lead to oxygen shortage and a low heart rate which might harm the development of the newborn, especially the central nervous system. In order to prevent oxygen shortage, …
Clinical Utility of Liquid Biopsy in Brigatinib ALK+ Patients
This is an open-label, non-randomised, phase II, exploratory, multi-country and multi-centre clinical trial. Chemotherapy-nave patients with EML4-ALK rearrangement and with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients will be selected. Patients enrolled in the study will receive brigatinib 90mg for the first 7 days (D 1-7 at cycle …
SBRT Dose Escalation for Reirradiation of Inoperable Lung Lesions
Prospective phase I study to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SBRT for thoracic re-irradiation. Dose limiting toxicity will be pneumonitis G3. The potential advantage of the dose escalation planned in this study is the delivery of an ablative dose to radically treat patients with inoperable local relapse, without …
Monitoring COVID-19 Patients' Lung Fluid Using Impedance Technique
COVID 19 is a novel and severe disease. One of the problems is that the virus disturbs the lungs and cause water accumulation in lungs alveolus (ARDS). Today, a chest X-ray is the only practical way to check the degree of lung accumulation. However, X-Ray has many limitations and disadvantages. …
Lung Ultrasound Assessment of Fluid Overload in Haemodialysis Patients
Determination of the hemodialysis ultrafiltration volume is guided by the clinician's estimate of dry weight. A poor estimate of this dry weight may result in insufficient fluid depletion causing a state of volume overload, which may be associated with long-term left ventricular failure, high blood pressure and excess of mortality. …
