The Frequency of Screening and SBT Technique Trial: The FAST Trial
Background: The sickest patients who are admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) often require assistance with their breathing. When patients start to get better, they gradually do more of the breathing and the machine does less-this is called weaning. Although ventilator use saves lives, the longer it is used, …

PICU Up!: A Pilot Stepped-wedge Trial of a Multicomponent Early Mobility Intervention for Critically Ill Children
Recent decreases in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) mortality rates have been offset by increased morbidity and length of stay for vulnerable young patients. Heavy sedation, bedrest, and delirium contribute to a PICU culture of immobility. While studies in adult ICU patients demonstrate the clinical benefits of early mobilization, fewer …

Bolus Versus Continuous Infusion of Meropenem
This study arises from the need to optimize antibacterial drug usage to face increasing drug resistance among gram-negative pathogens in intensive care units. Gram-negative organisms are responsible for 70% of drug-resistant infections acquired in the intensive care unit. Meropenem is a -lactam, carbapenem, antibacterial agent usually administered by intermittent infusion. …

Proportional Assist Ventilation for Minimizing the Duration of Mechanical Ventilation: The PROMIZING Study
For adult patients with acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation, does a ventilation strategy using proportional assist ventilation with load-adjustable gain factors (PAV+) result in a shorter duration of time spent on mechanical ventilation than a ventilation strategy using pressure support ventilation (PSV)?

The VITDALIZE Study: Effect of High-dose Vitamin D3 on 28-day Mortality in Adult Critically Ill Patients
In the VITdAL-ICU trial using a large oral dose of vitamin D3 in 480 adult critically ill patients, there was no benefit regarding the primary endpoint hospital length of stay. However, the predefined subgroup with severe vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D 12ng/ml) had significantly lower 28-day mortality (36.3% placebo vs. 20.4% …

Conservative Versus Conventional Oxygen Administration in Critically Ill Patients
Oxygen supplementation in the inspired mixture is commonly used in critically ill patients and observational studies highlight that those patients remain hyperoxemic for substantial periods during Intensive Care Unit stay. However, exposure to inhaled oxygen-enriched mixtures is widely recognized as potentially harmful and cause of organ damage. Although, the specific …

Tight Versus Liberal Blood Glucose Control in Adult Critically Ill Patients
Critically ill patients usually develop hyperglycemia, which is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Controversy exists on whether targeting normal blood glucose concentrations with insulin therapy, referred to as tight blood glucose control (TGC) improves outcome of these patients, as compared to tolerating hyperglycemia. It remains unknown …

The Effect of Higher Protein Dosing in Critically Ill Patients
The investigator will investigate the effects of higher protein/amino acid dosing (2.2 g/kg/d) vs usual protein/amino acid dosing (1.2 g/kg/d) on clinical outcomes in nutritionally high risk ill patients.
