About this study

Official title: Use of EtCO2 and Prolonged Expiratory Maneuvers as a PaCO2 Predictor in Cases of Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

In patients treated by Non invasive ventilation (NIV) due to acute hypercapnic respiratory failure, the interest of using the End-tidal Co2 measurement device "Capnostream" to evaluate PaCo2 and PaCo2 variations over time will be evaluated. Measurements will be done under normal expiration and under prolonged active and passive expiration maneuvers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison between EtCO2,PaCO2 and PaCO2 variation under NIV during both spontaneous expiration and prolonged expiration

    Comparison between EtCO2,PaCO2 and PaCO2 variation under NIV during both spontaneous expiration and prolonged expiration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure, run by University of Lausanne Hospitals at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 3 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 16 May 2013. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Comparison between EtCO2,PaCO2 and PaCO2 variation under NIV during both spontaneous expiration and prolonged expiration (time frame: Sixty minutes). 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 NCT01489150, 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 16 May 2013.
