New inhaled drug tested for severe lung failure
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis early-stage trial will test the safety of a single inhaled dose of a lab-made protein (rhKGF-2) in 24 adults with moderate-to-severe ARDS who are on a breathing machine. Participants will receive either the study drug or standard care alone, and be monitored for 28 days for …

Could a common nausea drug prevent lung damage in ventilator patients?
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether ondansetron, a drug typically used for nausea, can reduce the strong urge to breathe in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on ventilators. This strong drive can cause patients to overwork their lungs, leading to further injury. The t…

Ventilator settings under the microscope: can we breathe easier?
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study looks at how different levels of pressure from a breathing machine (ventilator) affect the lungs and diaphragm in 25 ICU patients with respiratory failure. Each patient will try three pressure settings to see which one helps them breathe more efficiently and with less …
