This study looks at morphine taken from implanted pain pumps in 5 adults with chronic pain. Researchers want to see if the drug stays sterile and chemically stable after 3 to 6 months inside the pump. The goal is to learn more about real-world safety, not to test a new treatment.

This study looks back at records of 200 ICU patients who needed a breathing tube to protect their airway. The goal is to find patterns that show which patients are more likely to need a tracheostomy (a tube placed directly into the windpipe). If we can identify these patients ear…

This study will test a computer model called iCVS that uses blood pressure readings to help doctors figure out why a patient is in shock. Researchers will look at data from 1,150 adults in the ICU. The goal is to see if the model can detect early warning signs and correctly class…

This study looks at whether a chest CT scan gives important new information beyond a simple chest X-ray for ICU patients with respiratory failure. Researchers will review records of 50 patients to see if CT findings changed their treatment. The goal is to find out if some CT scan…
