NCT00393991
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the fixed combination asthma drug FlutiForm HFA MDI with its two components administered alone, fluticasone propionate and formoterol fumarate, and with placebo in adult and adolescent patients with mild to moderate asthma.
NCT00449501
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate whether subjects respond similarly to the Onset of Effect Questionnaire (OEQ) administered pre-dose versus post-dose, while receiving SYMBICORT® pMDI 80/4.5 μg x 2 actuations twice daily or budesonide HFA pMDI 80 μg x 2 actuations twice daily.
NCT00639847
This study compared an in-home asthma management program provided by nurses or respiratory therapists to see if those receiving program had fewer hospitalizations, clinic and emergency room visits and higher levels of satisfaction and health related quality of life.
NCT00521625
PALIVE 1 is an observational multicenter study on mechanical ventilation strategies used in children with an acute lung injury (ALI). The objective of the study is to describe mechanical ventilation strategies in children with an ALI. Our hypothesis is that daily clinical practice is heterogenous among pediatric intensivists as few pediatric data exists on optimal mechanical ventilation strategies in this group of patients. Furthermore, different strategies may affect patient outcome.
NCT00192439
\- Estimate the incidence rate of hMPV infection detected by RT-PCR from frozen nasal wash aspirates in children at high risk for severe LRI disease (hospitalized at \<2 years of age).
NCT00449527
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate whether subjects respond similarly to the Onset of Effect Questionnaire (OEQ) using a 1 week recall period versus a 1 day recall period.
NCT00044811
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of fexofenadine 120mg BID compared to placebo in the treatment of subjects with mild to moderate persistent asthma
NCT00044824
NCT00031473
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of ribavirin, administered as an aerosol, in preventing progression of upper respiratory tract RSV infection to RSV pneumonia in bone marrow and peripheral blood transplant recipients.
NCT00474656
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and catastrophic complication of critical illness related to burns, motor vehicle accidents, or overwhelming infection. ARDS kills 40-70% of affected patients. Patients with ARDS require life support in the form of a ventilator to breathe for them while their lungs heal. Ironically, ventilators can cause further damage to the lungs. We are conducting a study comparing 2 methods to protect the lungs from further damage. One method uses standard mechanical ventilators and the other uses a new type of ventilator, called a high frequency oscillator. We propose to test whether this high frequency oscillation will reduce the relative risk of dying from ARDS. 72 patients from 12 intensive care units in Canada and Saudi Arabia will participate in this preliminary study to test the feasibility of our study methods. If feasible, we plan to move on and conduct a large multinational study to definitively answer this question.
