About this study

Official title: Cough Determinants in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: a Physiological Study

In our knowledge there is only few data about the cough determinants in mechanically ventilated patients. However some failure of extubation is due to inefficiency cough. In order to determine some determinants of cough, the investigators propose to evaluate systematically different physiological parameters before and after extubation.

Read the detailed description

In order to evaluate, and identify the cough determinants, the investigators propose a physiological evaluation for each patients who were intubated and mechanically ventilated during at least 72 hours. Indeed inefficacy of cough after extubation is one of the main reason of extubation failure. However there is no any mean to evaluate it simply now.

Functional respiratory evaluation

What participants receive

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

  • Functional respiratory evaluationOther

    Also called Pulmonary Function test

    Each enrolled patients has a pulmonary function test before and after extubation, and repeatedly at D1, D3, D5 (if they are always hospitalized)

What is being measured

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

  1. Interest of systematically cough evaluation before extubation

    All the patients enrolled have a physiological evaluation before and after extubation. After extubation the evaluation will be done respectively at D0, D1, D3 and D5. The first endpoint is the success of extubation which is evaluated à D2.

    Measured: 2 days after extubation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation between success of extubation and respiratory parameters

    Measured: 2 days after extubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Functional respiratory evaluation in people with Mechanical Ventilation, run by University Hospital, Caen at 2 sites 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 22 Apr 2019. 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 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?

Interest of systematically cough evaluation before extubation (time frame: 2 days after extubation). 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 NCT01564745, 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 22 Apr 2019.
