NCT06369584
In 2023, the second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference (PALICC-2) updated the diagnostic and management guidelines for Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (PARDS). The guidelines do not provide sufficient evidence-based recommendations on whether prone positioning ventilation is necessary for severe PARDS patients. However, the effectiveness of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in treating severe PARDS has been fluctuating around 70% according to recent data from Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO). In 2018, the Randomized Evaluation of Sedation Titration for Respiratory Failure (RESTORE) study group conducted a retrospective analysis and concluded that ECMO does not significantly improve survival rates for severe PARDS. However, this retrospective study mainly focused on data from North America, with significant variations in annual ECMO support cases among different centers, which may introduce bias. With advancements in ECMO technology and materials, ECMO has become safer and easier to operate. In recent years, pediatric ECMO support technology has rapidly grown in mainland China and is increasingly being widely used domestically to rescue more children promptly. ECMO can also serve as a salvage measure for severely ARDS children who have failed conventional mechanical ventilation treatment. When optimizing ventilator parameters (titrating positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) levels, neuromuscular blockers, prone positioning), strict fluid management alone cannot maintain satisfactory oxygenation (P/F\<80mmHg or Oxygen Index (OI) \>40 for over 4 hours or OI \>20 for over 24 hours), initiating ECMO can achieve lung-protective ventilation strategies with ultra-low tidal volumes to minimize ventilator-associated lung injury.
NCT04493047
In Pakistan, pneumonia and recurrent wheeze in children under five pose significant threats to children's health. Despite being preventable, more than 90,000 children die each year due to pneumonia in Pakistan, making it one of the top five countries in the world, with the highest pneumonia related childhood mortality. The predisposing factors which lead to these illnesses include lack of hygiene, lack of immunization, overcrowding, household air pollution, smoking, and poverty. Prompt recognition and timely initiation of treatment is imperative in children under five with pneumonia and recurrent wheeze and failure to do so can lead to complications and death. In children under five, among the causes of death due to these diseases, one is delayed care seeking. It has been identified that around 38% of deaths due to respiratory illnesses occur in households due to this delayed care seeking which is defined as delay in care sought for an illness outside home.
NCT03364959
The main purpose of this open randomized, ex-vivo comparative study, is to assess and to compare the inhalable dose of inhaled corticosteroid collected through a nasal filter and a mouth filter located in a partitioned face mask and delivered to an infant with asthma via a Tipshaler® holding chamber
NCT02560129
Summary: Emerging data demonstrate long-term morbidity and mortality in those who survive critical illness. However, there is no data regarding long-term follow-up for ICU survivors. The investigators have begun the implementation of an ICU recovery clinic. Rationale: ICU survivors are at high risk for functional, cognitive and psychiatric impairments. However, methods to mitigate these impairments and improve recovery are lacking. Special follow-up clinics for survivors of critical illness have been proposed and implemented to some degree, but are uncommon.

NCT06211985
Copeptin serves as a biomarker emanating from the pituitary gland, functioning as the precursor to arginine vasopressin (AVP). Its role in the regulation of endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and water-electrolyte balance has been established. The measurement of AVP levels poses challenges due to its brief half-life and the intricate nature of its detection method. In contrast, copeptin provides an indirect means of gauging circulating AVP levels, as it can be conveniently assessed through a sandwich immunoassay. As a neuroendocrine stress hormone, copeptin emerges as a prognostic indicator, reflective of an individual's stress burden. Moreover, its applicability extends to various acute conditions such as ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction. Notably, copeptin proves to be a dependable tool in the differential diagnosis of diverse ailments characterized by polyuria and polydipsia. Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) stands as the predominant cause of morbidity and mortality among children and adolescents globally. Notably, copeptin has demonstrated utility in forecasting the severity and complications associated with severe pneumonia in adults. While early investigations into copeptin's role in pediatric LRTI suggest its potential for diagnosing pneumonia and predicting complications, the outcomes of these studies present conflicting results. Although there has been a notable increase in studies on copeptin in pediatric patients over the past decade, research specifically exploring its correlation with pneumonia remains scarce. This prospective case-control study is designed to investigate the potential association between copeptin levels and the severity of illness in pediatric patients with pneumonia. The study aims to determine whether copeptin levels can serve as a reliable predictor of disease severity in pneumonia, offering valuable insights for clinical application. The outcomes of this research may contribute significantly to our comprehension of copeptin's role in disease prognosis and management, thereby facilitating the development of more efficacious diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Additionally, the study seeks to identify the factors influencing copeptin levels and establish a cut-off value for copeptin in pediatric patients diagnosed with pneumonia.
NCT06157255
The Sponsor is developing the test medicine, AZD4604, as a potential treatment for asthma. Asthma is a common lung condition caused by inflammation (swelling) of the breathing tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs, causing occasional breathing difficulties such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough. This study in healthy volunteers will explore the following questions. * Does the test medicine cause any important side effects? * What are the blood levels of the test medicine and how quickly does the body get rid of it? * How much of the test medicine gets into the bloodstream? * How does the body break down and get rid of the test medicine? This study will take place at one non-NHS site in Nottingham, and plans to enrol 8 healthy men and women aged 18-65 years who will be involved in both parts of the study.

The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of HFNC in this indication.
NCT06433076
Over-assisted mechanical ventilation (MV) is linked to respiratory muscle disuse atrophy, while under-assisted MV can lead to patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) or respiratory muscle injuries. Both scenarios result in poor outcomes. This hypothesis aims to demonstrate the association between the degree of respiratory effort which was measured by P0.1, predicted Pmus, and predicted Δtranspulmonary pressure (ΔPL) with ventilator-free days (VFD) and 28-day mortality.
NCT04388813
This is a longitudinal, multi-center, observational study collecting diverse biological measurements and clinical and epidemiological data for the purpose of enabling a greater understanding of the onset of severe outcomes, primarily acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and/or mortality, in patients presenting to the hospital with suspicion or diagnosis of COVID-19. We seek to understand whether there are early signatures that predict progression to ARDS, mortality, and/or other comorbid conditions. The duration of the study participation is approximately 3 months.

NCT00545844
Effectiveness of adding montelukast to inhaled corticosteroids in adult subjects with both uncontrolled asthma and allergic rhinitis.
NCT03983603
Plant stanols are known to lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, studies have suggested that these compounds also influence the immune system. Asthmatic responses are predominantly T helper (Th)2 cell dependent, while plant stanols were previously found to activate Th1 cells and shift the immune response away from the Th2 cell dominant asthmatic response. The question now is whether this also translates into a reduction of clinical symptoms in asthma patients.The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate clinical benefits of prolonged consumption of plant stanols (delivered via plant stanol esters) in asthma patients. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the mechanisms via which plant stanols modulate the immune system and to evaluate the effects of plant stanol ester consumption on cardiovascular (CVD) risk parameters.
