About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Spontaneous Breathing Trials Through Pressure-Support Ventilation or "T" Tube in the Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Weaning of mechanical ventilation (MV) is an essential part in management of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) when critically ill. The best strategy to be used has not been established.

Objective: To compare the Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) in Pressure Support Ventilation with SBT through "T" tube in weaning of MV in patients with COPD.

Design: Randomized Clinical Trial. Methods: This study will include patients with COPD, admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, undergoing MV for at least 48 hours. When considered by the care team ready for SBT, they will be randomized to one of the following strategies: SBT in Pressure Support or SBT through "T" Tube. The primary endpoint of this study will be the reduction in the days spent on MV. Other outcomes measured will be mortality, extubation and success rate, time to weaning of MV, length of ICU stay and incidence of tracheostomy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing "T" Tube Spontaneous Breathing Trial and Pressure Support Ventilation in people with Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceicao at 2 sites in Brazil.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 25 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Brazil. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Days Spent on Mechanical Ventilation (time frame: Participants will be followed for the duration of ICU stay, an expected average of 2 weeks). 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 NCT01464567, 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 25 Nov 2016.
