The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $117,750 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago to validate the use of wireless biosensors and a portable capnograph for remote patient monitoring of children with invasive home mechanical ventilation (IHMV). The project aims to address key limitations in the hospital's existing remote monitoring dashboard, including the time and cognitive burden...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $807,067.00 and issued by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), aims to advance the understanding and quantification of respiratory kinematics as novel physiological markers for predicting respiratory failure. The key objectives of this five-year project are to: Pioneer the quantitative documentation of the human respiratory kinematic profile in a large cohort of adults...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded Canairy LLC a Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The $324,770 award, which runs from September 2024 to September 2025, supports the development of a stand-alone wearable device to track environmental exposures and assess respiratory functions for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The device will collect data on personal exposure to pollutants and...
The federal Project Grant award R43HL172316, for $604,750, was provided by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research (CFDA 93.837) program. The funding supports the development of a novel inhalation device prototype for the pulmonary delivery of anti-inflammatory agents to the distal airways of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The device leverages a "bottom-up" aerosolization technology to generate...
This federal Project Grant award of $2,000,987.00 from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) supports research to examine how the antiviral immune response and associated metabolic changes in the respiratory epithelium can promote the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms during viral-bacterial co-infections in cystic fibrosis patients. The research, led by the Trustees of Dartmouth College, aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) aims to develop a modern Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) device for monitoring children in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The $299,900 award to Goodlife Inventors LLC will fund efforts to (1) generate initial designs for an advanced lightweight EIT belt and (2) assess the technical feasibility of a miniaturized, easier to use EIT core device. If...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), will support the development of a hand-held smart sensor system to detect exhaled volatile organic compound (VOC) biomarkers for the noninvasive, real-time identification of pulmonary exacerbations in children with cystic fibrosis. The $206,345 grant, awarded to the Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University Indianapolis, aims to leverage machine learning to establish a breath-based biosignature for pulmonary exacerbations (Aim 1), design and test a nanosensor array to detect the biosignature (Aim 2), and create a user-friendly smartphone app for at-home or clinical use (Aim 3). This research seeks to develop a disruptive diagnostic solution that can improve the quality of life and reduce healthcare costs for children with cystic fibrosis by enabling early detection and treatment of pulmonary exacerbations.
