This study is testing a soft, wearable device called PIMUN to see if it can safely help premature babies breathe better. The device gives gentle, rhythmic pulses on the baby's back to encourage breathing and reduce episodes of low oxygen. Researchers will compare 48 hours using t…

This study is testing a new type of skin-healing patch that contains tiny, oxygen-producing algae. Researchers want to see if this 'living bandage' helps serious skin wounds heal faster and with fewer infections compared to standard patches. The trial involves 20 adults with deep…

This study aims to find the best way to position patients with severe lung failure (ARDS) to help them survive. It will compare keeping patients on their stomachs for more than 48 hours at a time versus turning them on their stomachs for 16-24 hours each day. Researchers will tra…

This study is testing if giving tuberculosis (TB) preventive drugs immediately after a child or teen is exposed to someone with TB can stop them from getting infected. Researchers will compare children who get the drugs right away to those who follow standard care, which is to wa…

This study is testing a new AI-based software tool designed to help anesthesiologists better manage pain during surgery. The system analyzes real-time patient data to guide the precise dosing of a strong painkiller (remifentanil). The goal is to reduce the risks of giving too muc…
