About this study

Official title: Inspiratory Flow and VOlumes in Asthmatic and Healthy Individuals Using the Osmohaler

The OsmohalerTM is a registered device in Australia. It is used to deliver a dry powder a commercial preparation of mannitol registered as AridolTM to test if a person has irritable airways such as active asthma.

The overseas regulatory authorities need to know that people of all ages can achieve an adequate inspiratory flow through this device during a controlled deep inspiration. Adequate flow is generally regarded as greater than 30 litres per minute in children and 60 litres per minute in adults. The OsmohalerTM is a device with low resistance and is already in use in Australia to deliver mannitol. However there is a need to document inspiratory flows through the device during a controlled deep inspiration. The protocol requires subjects to perform a controlled deep inspiration from the device on three or five occasions. No substance will be inhaled.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Asthma, run by Syntara.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Apr 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Apr 2008.
