U.S., Dec. 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07279831) titled 'Brain-lung Interaction During Acute Respiratory Failure' on Nov. 26.
Brief Summary: Acute hypoxemic de novo respiratory failure (AHRF) is a common cause of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Its main cause is community-acquired pneumonia. Prevention of intubation relies, among other things, on high-flow nasal canulae (HFNC). However, approximately 40% of patients are intubated despite HFNC.
Our team has developed measurements derived from electroencephalograms (EEG) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) that enable the study of brain-ventilation interactions. To date, these tools have been studied exclusively in intubated ...
