COVID-19, Cytokine Storm
Fluoxetine to Reduce Intubation and Death After COVID19 Infection
This project will test the efficacy of fluoxetine to prevent serious consequences of COVID-19 infection, especially death. Becoming sick with COVID-19 virus or any other serious respiratory condition is not fun.

Lung Collapse, One-Lung Ventilation
Physiology of Lung Collapse Under One-Lung Ventilation: Underlying Mechanisms
Lung isolation technique and one-lung ventilation (OLV) are the mainstays of thoracic anesthesia. Two principal lung isolation techniques are mainly use by clinicians, the double lumen tubes (DLT) and the bronchial blockers (BB).

- PLC-OLV (NCT02919267)
- Testing
- Double lumen tube, Bronchial blocker
