MT2022-27: TRANSPIRE: Lung Injury in a Longitudinal Cohort of Pediatric HSCT Patients
People planning to undergo a bone marrow transplant and are at risk for developing problems with the lungs related to this planned therapy. The types and seriousness of lung problems that may develop after transplant can be very different and currently, we don’t exactly know what risk factors influence who develops them or how they may respond to therapy. Also, we do not know what the best test is to monitor lung function after transplant, especially in children and young adults. The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about lung problems after bone marrow transplant including what is the best method for diagnosing lung problems and following how well the lungs are working. In this study, clinical information, laboratory results and imaging findings will be collected from medical records to assist researchers in learning more about lung complications after bone marrow transplant.

Voice Amplifier to Enhance Critical Care Coordination among Masked Providers
The proposed project seeks to improve speech intelligibility among healthcare workers who wear personal protective equipment for occupational safety while caring for patients with infectious diseases. Respiratory protective equipment such as filtering facepiece respirators, elastomeric half- and full-facepiece respirators and powered air-purifying respirators are routinely worn in the critical care unit as components of personal protective equipment for occupational safety when caring for patients with infectious diseases including COVID-19. Diminished speech intelligibility has been observed to be associated with certain types of respiratory protective equipment. Effective verbal exchanges are vital in critical care and significant reductions in speech intelligibility impact many complex tasks. The project will include two human studies testing a newly designed noninvasive speaker like device as a tool for improved communication
