pneumothorax complications :: Article Creator FDA Approves GE's AI-based Collapsed Lung Detection System The FDA has approved a mobile chest x-ray system that helps detect pneumothorax – a type of collapsed lung – by flagging critical cases for triage. According to the manufacturer, GE Healthcare, Critical Care Suite is the first system of its kind to get approved by the FDA, offering a series of artificial intelligence algorithms embedded on a mobile X-ray device.

bronchiectasis severity index :: Article Creator Insmed Trumpets Mid-stage Results From Rare Lung Disease Drug US biotech Insmed has trumpeted updated phase 2 data from its brensocatib, at this week's virtual European Respiratory Society conference, showing the drug prolonged time to exacerbations caused by the rare lung disease known as non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFBE). The results, also published in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed that brensocatib significantly prolonged time to first pulmonary exacerbation, the primary endpoint, over the 24-week treatment period for both treatment doses versus placebo. The risk of exacerbation at any time during the 256-patient trial was reduced by 42% for the 10 mg group versus placebo and by 38% for the 25 mg group versus placebo.
