About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study of Negative Pressure Ventilation That Imapcts Weaning Ventilator in Medical Intensive Care Units

This is a Quasi-experimental research design. The subjects are limited in intensive care unit within north medical center hospital. All subjects depend on ventilator and receive weaning plans. Experimental group is weaning with the support of negative pressure ventilator .The investigators collect basic personal variables in the questionnaire, APACHE Ⅱ scale, Dyspnea scale and arterial blood gas analysis and ventilator weaning index. Compare experimental group and control group data. Data will be Statistical analyzed by: descriptive statistics (such as: mean, standard deviation, median, frequency, percentage) and inferential statistics (such as: Independent T-test, Pair T-test, Mann-Whitney U test), P-value <0.05 will consider to be statistically significant.

What participants receive

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

  • negative pressure ventilator useBehavioural

    Body ventilators that assist ventilation by applying intermittent subatmospheric pressure around the thorax, abdomen, or airway and periodically expand the chest wall and inflate the lungs. They are relatively simple to operate and do not require tracheostomy. Chest cuirass is used in this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing negative pressure ventilator use in people with Respiratory Failure, run by Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jul 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 Taiwan. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Horng-Chyuan Lin (lin53424@ms13.hinet.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ventilator weaning rate (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 2 Jul 2010.
