About this study

Official title: The Influence of Mode and Patient-ventilator Interaction on Sleep Quality in the ICU

Patients requiring mechanical ventilation in the ICU will undergo three consecutive nights of polysomnography to record sleep patterns while receiving three modes of mechanical ventilation; Proportional assist ventilation (PAV), Pressure support ventilation (PSV), Assist control ventilation (ACV), applied in random order. The purpose is to determine the effect of mode of mechanical ventilation on patient-ventilator asynchrony and sleep quality.

Being tested
PAV, PSV, ACV
Keywords
PAV (proportional assist ventilation); sleep; polysomnography; mechanical ventilation
Medical subject headings
Respiratory Insufficiency

What participants receive

  • PSVOther

    Pressure Support Ventilation will be used to ventilate the patient for a 24 hour period

  • ACVOther

    Assist Control Ventilation will be used to ventilate the patient for a 24 hour period

What is being measured

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

  1. Sleep quality

    Measured: 3 nights

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient-ventilator asynchrony

    Incidence of patient-ventilator asynchrony (asynchrony index, % of asynchronous breaths per minute)

    Measured: 3 nights

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PAV, PSV and ACV in people with Respiratory Failure, run by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute OR Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph's at 1 site in Canada.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 15 Aug 2012. 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 Canada. 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?

Sleep quality (time frame: 3 nights). 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 NCT01410149, which also lists 13 linked publications.

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 15 Aug 2012.
