NCT06511986
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common infection in critically ill patients, especially those with acute brain injuries, leading to increased mortality and longer ICU stays. The mechanical insufflation/exsufflation (M-I/E) cough assist device improves outcomes in patients with neuromuscular disorders but its effects on brain-injured patients are largely unknown. This study is conducted at a tertiary neurosurgical medical center and consists of two substudies. The prospective physiological study assessed the impact of M-I/E on hemodynamics and ICP in mechanically ventilated neurosurgical patients. The combined retrospective-prospective clinical study was performed to investigate the efficacy of M-I/E on occurence of VAP and other clinical outcomes.
NCT06541691
Although both enteric-coated and plain formulations of aspirin are being used commonly, there are no high-quality comparisons between these formulations with respect to clinical efficacy outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Air pollution is also a major contributor to the excess risk of cardiovascular events in many regions of the world. However, little is known about the effect of individual-level mitigation strategies against air pollution in reducing cardiovascular outcomes. The purpose of the first randomization is to compare the efficacy and safety of enteric-coated versus plain low-dose (81 mg) aspirin formulations in a double-blind fashion. The second randomization compares a multifaceted intervention including one-page educational flashcard, cell phone text messages alerting participants on polluted days, recommending them to stay indoors or wear KN-95 facemasks provided by the study team in case of necessary outdoor activity, and recommendation to consume citrus fruits on polluted days versus usual care. Both randomization are powered for clinical outcomes and the results will inform practice.
