New guidelines for methacholine challenge testing recommend reporting the test outcome as dose rather than concentration. Jet nebulizers have historically been used for methacholine challenge testing, but much of the weight loss, often (incorrectly) referred to as aerosol output, is actually evaporation. The Wright nebulizer is well characterized and still widely used, but its availability is unclear, and it is nondisposable. We developed a novel method using a vibrating mesh nebulizer (Solo). This method was compared with the standard 2-min tidal breathing method using the Wright nebulizer. Repeatability within and between nebulizers was also tested.

Hypoxemia and hypotension are common complications during endotracheal intubation of critically ill adults. Verbal performance of a written, preintubation checklist may prevent these complications. We compared a written, verbally performed, preintubation checklist with usual care regarding lowest arterial oxygen saturation or lowest systolic BP experienced by critically ill adults undergoing endotracheal intubation.

The clinical severity of COPD is currently categorized by symptom burden and exacerbation risk. Previous 24-week phase III trials (NCT01854645 and NCT01854658) that demonstrated better improvement of lung function with glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate (GFF) metered dose inhaler (MDI) (an MDI fixed-dose of GFF 18/9.6 μg) over individual monocomponent MDIs included a cross-section of patients with moderate to very severe airflow limitation and a broad range of COPD symptoms.

Sepsis most often presents to the ED, and delayed detection is harmful. WBC count is often used to detect sepsis, but changes in WBC count size also correspond to sepsis. We sought to determine if volume increases of circulating immune cells add value to the WBC count for early sepsis detection in the ED.

Prostacyclins improve symptoms and survival in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In response to risks associated with external delivery systems, an implantable IV infusion system was developed. A multicenter, prospective, single-arm, clinical trial (DelIVery for PAH) was conducted to evaluate this system for treprostinil in PAH. This analysis describes the findings related to the implant procedure.

In previous systematic reviews (predominantly of randomized controlled trials), pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) has been shown to reduce hospital admissions for acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD). However, findings have been less consistent for cohort studies. The goal of this study was to compare rates of hospitalized and general practice (GP)-treated AECOPD prior to and following PR.
230. A Multicenter, Randomized Trial of Ramped Position vs Sniffing Position During Endotracheal Intubation of Critically Ill Adults.

Hypoxemia is the most common complication during endotracheal intubation of critically ill adults. Intubation in the ramped position has been hypothesized to prevent hypoxemia by increasing functional residual capacity and decreasing the duration of intubation, but has never been studied outside of the operating room.

Animal and cellular studies support the importance of autophagy inhibition in lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). In a cohort of subjects with LAM, we tested the hypothesis that treatment with sirolimus and hydroxychloroquine (an autophagy inhibitor) at two different dose levels is safe and well tolerated. Secondary end points included changes in lung function.

Cough is produced by the same neuronal pool implicated in respiratory rhythm generation, and antitussive drugs acting at the central level, such as opioids, may depress ventilation. Levodropropizine is classified as a nonopioid peripherally acting antitussive drug that acts at the level of airway sensory nerves. However, the lack of a central action by levodropropizine remains to be fully established. We set out to compare the effects of levodropropizine and the opioid antitussive agent dihydrocodeine on the respiratory responses to a conventional CO2 rebreathing test in patients with chronic cough of any origin.

We studied patients from the Protocolized Care in Early Septic Shock (ProCESS) trial to determine the effects of alternative resuscitation strategies on circulating markers of endothelial cell permeability and hemostasis and the association between biomarkers and mortality.

Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination is known to cause false-positive tuberculin skin test (TST) results from cross-reactions with mycobacterial antigens. However, the duration of BCG vaccination influence on the TST is poorly characterized. The objective of this study was to assess the long-term effect of BCG vaccination on TST reactivity.

Cough is a common symptom of scleroderma-related interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD), but its relationship to other characteristics of SSc-ILD, impact on cough-specific quality of life (QoL), and response to therapy for SSc-ILD have not been well studied.

Surgical patients with OSA are at increased risk for perioperative complications. Postoperative supplemental oxygen is commonly used, but it may contribute to respiratory depression in patients with OSA receiving opioids. The objective of the study is to investigate the effect of postoperative supplemental oxygen on arterial oxygen saturation (Sao2), sleep respiratory events, and CO2 level in patients with untreated OSA.
