Detailed Description:
Attack of the Alveolar Type II (ATII) cell via its ACE2 surface receptor by the SARS-CoV-2 virus leads to respiratory failure, morbidity, and frequently mortality in COVID-19. There is no approved treatment that specifically targets the pulmonary injury. Vasoactive Intestinal
Acute Lung Injury, which triggers Critical COVID-19 is a known lethal complication of Corona Virus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Conventional medical therapy, including intensive care and respiratory support is associated with an 80% mortality. Aviptadil, a synthetic form of Human Vasoactive Intestinal

BACKGROUND AND SIGNIFICANCE
All currently available mechanical ventilation modes assume that patient-ventilator interaction is necessarily a "master-slave" or controller-follower relationship. In controlled mechanical ventilation, the ventilator takes control of the ventilatory rhythm irrespective
Objectives / Research Aims The overall objectives of this study are to demonstrate whether a protocol for the early use of inhaled N-acetylcysteine improves mortality, ventilator days, ICU days, hospital stay, as well as the need for other "rescue" modalities, such as use of advanced ventilator
In Mexico, cervical cancer (CC) is the second most frequent cause of death among women, with a mortality rate of 4000 women/year. Concerning the treatment of these patients, there is evidence about the benefit of addition of chemotherapy to radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced CC, with an
Extubation after intracranial tumor surgery is desirable in order to make an early diagnosis of intracranial complications. Extubation however, may be associated with haemodynamic and metabolic changes e.g. agitation, increased oxygen consumption, catecholamine secretion, hypercapnia and systemic
Pulmonary-related surgeries remain some potential risks according to the previous evidence-based studies. Particularly, individuals who were over 65 years of age with smoking, chronic pulmonary disease, wheezy, cardiovascular comorbidities, upper respiratory infection were at the high risk of
Based on data from the National Inpatient Sample from 2002-2012, patients undergoing elective primary ACDF, diagnosed with dysphagia (4% of total patients), had a two-fold increase in mean length of stay (4.03 compared to 1.56 days; p < 0.001) and a substantial increase in their total hospital
Our primary outcome is to assess the safety of Dotarem in these patients up to 24 hours after Dotarem injection. The patients will be monitored in the hospital for at least 2 hours following the completion of the MRI exam. Many of these patients will have received sedation for the MRI and would be
