NCT03884777
Upper respiratory infection , including influenza, may exacerbate the symptoms of myasthenia gravis (MG), which is an autoimmune disease that causes muscle weakness and, in some cases, can precipitate a myasthenic crisis In the present study, we investigated the incidence and risk factors of influenza infection on in myasthenia gravis patients.
NCT03121482
Prospective multicenter randomized controlled open-label trial comparing 2 strategies of oxygenation during the post-extubation period in ICU patients at high risk of extubation failure. Patients will be randomized and assigned to one of the two groups, with a 1:1 ratio.
NCT02326350
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) causes the lungs to fail due to the collection of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary oedema). ARDS is common in severely ill patients in Intensive Care Units and is associated with a high mortality and a high morbidity in those who survive. There is a large economic burden with direct healthcare costs, but also indirectly due to the impact on the carer and patient through their inability to return to full time employment. There is little evidence for effective drug (pharmacological) treatment for ARDS. Blood cells called platelets have increasingly been recognized to play a key role in the development of ARDS. There is increasing information that aspirin, a drug which is widely used to treat heart disease, might be important in treating ARDS. We plan to test if aspirin will help in the treatment of ARDS. To do this we will divide patients suffering from ARDS into two groups, one of which will get aspirin and the other a harmless dummy (or placebo) tablet who will then be followed up to determine if lung function improves. If effective this may lead to further research to determine if aspirin is effective in patients with ARDS. This project will also provide new information about mechanisms in the development of ARDS leading, potentially, to other new treatments.
