Risks of lung-opening maneuvers and PEEP adjustments in ventilated children
This project will track how often lung-opening maneuvers and PEEP adjustments cause complications in children under 14 who are on mechanical ventilation in the PICU.
-
Personalized lung volume optimization with PEEP titration for children after heart surgery or with severe respiratory failure
This trial tests whether a personalized lung volume optimization maneuver using PEEP titration can improve heart and lung function in children after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery or in those with severe respiratory failure at risk for ECMO.
-
Using Positive End-Expiratory Pressure during CPR for Cardiac Arrest
This study is testing if using a special breathing technique during CPR can help adults who have a cardiac arrest outside of the hospital survive better and have good brain function afterwards.
-
Using PEEP and EIT to keep lungs open in babies born before 32 weeks
This study tests whether adjusting gentle breathing pressure (PEEP) guided by electrical impedance tomography (EIT) helps keep the lungs open in babies born before 32 weeks who need CPAP or ventilator support.
-
Using electrical impedance tomography to find the best breathing support for newborns
This study is testing the best way to help newborns breathe better by using special technology to find the right level of breathing support they need.
