Blood flow restriction training for ICU patients on ventilators with ICU-acquired weakness
This study tests whether a low-load blood flow restriction exercise program can help restore muscle strength in adults with ICU-acquired weakness who are on invasive mechanical ventilation.
-
Tracking changes in physical strength for adults in the ICU
We will test whether changes in the Chelsea Critical Care Physical Assessment Tool (CPAx) score between ICU admission and discharge can predict outcomes like death and how long adults need mechanical ventilation.
-
VR-based rehabilitation in the ICU for improved patient satisfaction and function
This trial tests immersive virtual reality rehab in ICU patients to see if it improves satisfaction and functional outcomes.
-
Early check of quadriceps strength in ICU patients on invasive ventilation
This study tests whether early measurement of quadriceps strength using dynamometry and 3D ultrasound can help track recovery in adults in the ICU who are on invasive mechanical ventilation.
-
Technology-assisted early mobilization for ICU patients on ventilators
This trial will test whether a technology-assisted, family-engaged early mobilization program helps critically ill adults on ventilators avoid ICU-acquired weakness.
-
Targeted resuscitation approach for septic shock patients
This study tests a personalized treatment plan for people with septic shock to see if using specific signs like capillary refill time can help them recover better than standard methods.
-
Understanding Muscle Regeneration in ICU Survivors
This study is trying to understand how muscle weakness happens in people who have survived serious illnesses by looking at special cells that help muscles heal.
-
Comparing muscle oxygenation and activation during different types of bed-cycling exercises in ICU patients
This study is testing whether two different types of bed-cycling exercises can help improve muscle oxygen and activation in patients recovering from weakness after being in the ICU.
