Pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome

This trial investigates whether placing infants with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on their stomachs (prone positioning) after surfactant treatment can improve their oxygen levels. The study involves 14 mechanically ventilated infants, comparing oxygenation an…

This study investigates whether measuring the physical effort of breathing in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can predict how the disease will progress. Researchers will use advanced, non-invasive monitoring tools to track breathing drive, effort, and lun…

This study looks at 50 children (over 1 year old) in intensive care who are on breathing machines due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Researchers want to see if two methods can reliably measure airway opening pressure, which could help doctors personalize ventilati…

This study looks at whether being treated at a high-altitude hospital affects survival for children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (severe lung failure). Researchers will collect data from 1,600 children in intensive care units around the world. The goal is to understan…

This study tests a computer program that gives doctors step-by-step advice on how to set breathing machines for children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The goal is to see if the tool can be used in multiple hospitals and if doctors follow its recommendations. Up…

This study is collecting data from 2,200 children aged 0 to 12 who come to emergency rooms with breathing problems. Researchers will use videos and clinical information to train an artificial intelligence system to automatically recognize different breathing patterns. The goal is…

This study tracks complications from a lung-opening procedure used in children under 14 with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who are on a breathing machine. The procedure, called alveolar opening maneuver with PEEP titration, aims to improve oxygen levels but can cause…
