Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, reliability and validity of oxygen supplementation duration as an intermediate outcome of resolution of acute hypoxic respiratory failure from all cause in comparison with PaO2/FiO2, SaO2/FiO2 ratio, and lung injury score trajectories in critically ill patients with acute respiratory failure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the combined use of vitamin C, thiamine and corticosteroids versus indistinguishable placebos for patients with sepsis. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of combination therapy using vitamin C, thiamine and corticosteroids in reducing mortality and improving organ function in critically ill patients with sepsis.

The purpose of this study is to establish the effectiveness of a combination of an inhaled corticosteroid and a beta agonist compared to placebo for the prevention of acute respiratory failure (ARF) in hospitalized patients with pneumonia and hypoxemia.

Severe acute respiratory failure requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation is the most common form of acute organ dysfunction in the hospital, and is often associated with multiple organ failure, high mortality, and functional impairment. The purpose of this study is to improve the outcomes of patients at high risk with early intervention using an electronic medical records checklist aimed at preventing the lung injury that commonly leads to organ failure.

The purpose of this study is to deepen our understanding of the ARDS mechanism following transplantation through an analysis of cytokines, metabolomics and proteomics before ARDS occurs, and during the early phase of ARDS development.

The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness of psychological support based on positive suggestions (PSBPS) vs. usual care on mental health morbidity and cognitive function in survivors of critical illness.

The purpose of this study is to compare a standard steroid dosing algorithm to a novel biomarker-tailored steroid dosing algorithm for patients receiving corticosteroids for community acquired pneumonia.  Patients with severe community acquired pneumonia may benefit from adjunctive corticosteroid therapy. The optimal patient selection, dosing and duration of steroids is unknown.

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if the reduction in TMPRSS2 activity via direct inhibition with Camostat mesilate combined with standard of care (SOC) treatment will increase the proportion of patients alive and free from respiratory failure at Day 28 in SARS-CoV-2 as compared to SOC treatment with placebo.
