NCT04113434
The overall goal of the study is to risk stratify pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) patients and to identify sub-phenotypes with shared biology in order to appropriately target therapies in future trials. This is a prospective, multicenter study of 500 intubated children with ARDS, with planned blood collection within 24 hours of ARDS onset and subsequent measurement of plasma protein biomarkers and peripheral blood gene expression.
NCT04643431
This is an open-label, non-randomized study conducted at Thomas Jefferson University comparing pressure-gradient estimates (obtained between a carotid plaque and the carotid artery) to imaging and histology markers of plaque vulnerability. There is an inverse relationship between the subharmonic signal magnitude from contrast-enhanced ultrasound microbubbles and ambient pressure. This pressure estimation technique (referred as SHAPE) will be used to estimate the pressure gradient across the carotid plaque cap noninvasively in vivo.
