Clinical trials: Lung Perfusion
Covid19, Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C)
Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound in COVID-19
Initial data from COVID-19 patients suggests that one of the primary causes of death is significant endothelial injury leading to blood clotting and impaired multiorgan microvascular perfusion.

Infant, Premature, Diseases, Respiratory Insufficiency Syndrome of Newborn
Impact of CPAP Level on V/Q Mismatch in Premature Infants
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is used in premature infants to maintain lungs open and facilitate gas exchange. When ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch is present, areas of the lung that are open for gas exchange do…

Emphysema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Ex-vivo Perfusion and Ventilation of Lungs Recovered From Non-Heart-Beating Donors to Assess Transplant Suitability
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety of transplanting lungs obtained from non-heart-beating donors (NHBDs) that have been ventilated (attached to a breathing machine or ventilator to deliver oxygen) and…

Congenital Heart Surgery, Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Use of Phenoxybenzamine [PBZ] IV to Assist High Flow Low Pressure Perfusion [HFLPP] on Cardio-pulmonary Bypass
Cardiopulmonary bypass [CPB] in small size bodies can result in decreased peripheral perfusion. This results in anaerobic metabolism as evidenced by lactic acidosis.
- Trial name
- NCT00620945
- Testing
- Phenoxybenzamine
- Volunteers
- 87 people
