Trial summary

Non invasive ventilation has been proposed to reduce the incidence of ventilatory dysfunction following abdominal aortic surgery. However, the nasogastric tube reduces the airtightness of the facial mask used to perform non invasive ventilation and induces air leaks. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of the Benefit of the NAVA Mode Versus PSV Mode on Patient Ventilator Asynchrony During Non Invasive Ventilation With Helmet

Non invasive ventilation has been proposed to reduce the incidence of ventilatory dysfunction following abdominal aortic surgery. However, the nasogastric tube reduces the airtightness of the facial mask used to perform non invasive ventilation and induces air leaks. The use of a helmet reduces air leaks, thus seems adequate to ensure patient-ventilator interface. However, the high dead space related to helmet volume is responsible for asynchrony between patient demand and ventilatory support delivery. The investigators hypothesized driving the ventilator based on a neural signal (diaphragm electrical activity) would reduce patient-ventilator asynchronies.

What participants receive

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

  • Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory AssistanceDevice

    In ICU following abdominal aortic surgery, in extubated patient, non-invasive ventilation was performed as follows:

    • facial mask with non-invasive pressure support ventilation mode to define settings for helmet ventilation
    • helmet use with non-invasive pressure support ventilation mode to define adequate settings
    • helmet use with neurally adjusted ventilatory assist mode, based on previous settings

What is being measured

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

  1. Triggering delay

    Duration between the onset of neural inspiration and the onset of insufflation

    Measured: Every inspiration, for 10 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Cycling off delay

    Delay between the end of neural inspiration and the end of insufflation

    Measured: Every inspiration, for 10 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-Invasive Positive-Pressure Ventilation, run by Pierre and Marie Curie University 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 1 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 5 Aug 2011. 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.

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?

Triggering delay (time frame: Every inspiration, for 10 minutes). 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 5 Aug 2011.
