Trial summary

The investigators hypothesise that CPAP + pharmaceutical treatment, compared to pharmaceutical treatment alone, improves the respiratory and hemodynamic status of the patients before H2 after the inclusion time and decreases the rate of death and tracheal intubation during the first 48 hours.

About this study

Official title: Effect of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Short Term Inhospital Prognosis for Acute Pulmonary Edema

The investigators hypothesise that CPAP + pharmaceutical treatment, compared to pharmaceutical treatment alone, improves the respiratory and hemodynamic status of the patients before H2 after the inclusion time and decreases the rate of death and tracheal intubation during the first 48 hours.

Read the detailed description

Patients are included at home after informed consent by the emergency medical team and transported during the following 2 hours to a cardiac intensive care unit were the treatment is purchased as well. Randomization process has been done previously with envelopes ; group A : pharmaceutical treatment alone , B pharmaceutical plus CPAP. Medical treatment includes furosemide and nitroglycerin (continuous perfusion and bolus), inotropes if needed, and all other specific treatment required (ex : anti antiarrhythmic drugs). Doses are free, adapted to the clinical response for respiratory and hemodynamic distress. CPAP is a passive high flow venturi system device alimented by a hyperbaric oxygen. FiO2 can be controlled and adapted to the pulsed oxygen saturation. PEP must be initially celled at least at 7.5 cmH2O and increased to 10 if well tolerated.

Being tested
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), usual care of acute pulmonary oedema

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)Procedure or surgery

    Usual treatment of acute pulmonary oedema (see arm A) + CPAP will be administered without interruption for at least one hour and will be stopped for efficacy:

    stade I or II KILLIP classification and FR less or equal to 25 /min and SpO2 larger than 90 % ambient air and patient willing the stop of CPAP because of improvement of his clinical status.

  • usual care of acute pulmonary oedemaProcedure or surgery

    Usual treatment of acute pulmonary oedema including :

    Oxygen, diuretic minimum one bolus IV of 40 mg FUROSEMIDE (LASILIX) possibility to repeat the dose every 15 minutes with a maximum 120 mg.

    Bolus of ISOSORBIDE DINITRATE (RISORDAN) of 1 mg maybe repeated every 3 minutes.

    As soon as possible perfusion of ISDN with flow adapted to the clinical status If necessary administration of DOBUTAMINE continuous perfusion of to 5 to 20 µg/kg/min.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Composite criteria includes during the first 48 hours : death, tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation rates, persistence of inclusion criteria for respiratory distress and shock until H2, reappearance of inclusion criteria after H2.

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. brain natriuretic factor value curves from H0, H6 and H24; composite criteria without intubation rate; clinical and biological parameters evolution during the first 48 hours, myocardial infarction rate, CPAP non tol

    Measured: H0, H6, H24, H48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) in people with Pulmonary Edema and Dyspnea, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 30 Mar 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite criteria includes during the first 48 hours : death, tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation rates, persistence of inclusion criteria for respiratory distress and shock until H2, reappearance of inclusion criteria after H2. (time frame: 48 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00554580, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 Mar 2010.
