About this study

Official title: Comparative Monocenter RCT Comparing Safety and Efficacy of an Automated Closed-loop Oxygenation and Ventilation(IntelliVent® System - HAMILTON MEDICAL AG) With Non-automated Conventional Ventilation and Oxygenation

Partial automation of mechanical ventilation in resuscitation has been available for several years. New modalities are being developed to completely automate ventilation and oxygenation parameters (IntelliVent®.

This pilot study compares over a 48h period the safety and efficacy of IntelliVent®, versus a conventional ventilation modality.

Read the detailed description

Rational: Partial automation of mechanical ventilation in resuscitation has been available for several years. It can deliver a continuous ventilation adapted in real time to the patient's clinical condition,and decrease care workload and ventilation weaning duration. New modalities are being developed to completely automate ventilation and oxygenation parameters (IntelliVent®) and preliminary studies show that over short periods (2 to 4 h) such a system can ventilate patients more optimally and more safely, with a better ventilation efficiency (comparable effect on gas exchanges for a less "aggressive" ventilation). This pilot study compares over a longer period (48 hours), the safety and efficacy of IntelliVent®, versus a usual ventilation modality.

Type of study: Monocenter, comparative, prospective, randomized, parallel study.

Objective: To assess IntelliVent® safety, efficacy, and care workload.

Assessment criteria:

  • Safety is assessed by measuring the number of times it is necessary to manually intervene on the ventilator settings because for one the following parameters: A range SpO2, EtCO2, plateau pressure (Pplat), tidal volume (VT), respiratory rate (RR),values considered as non-optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.
  • Efficacy, in terms of ventilation, is assessed by the time spent within a range EtCO2 and Pplat and VT and RR values considered as optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.

Efficacy, in terms of oxygenation, is assessed by the time spent within a range SpO2 values considered as optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.

  • Care workload is assessed by the number of ventilator setting adjustments by nursing staff in each group.

Number of subjects: 80 patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory failure.

Methods: The selected patients presenting with inclusion criteria are ventilated either with IntelliVent® or with the unit's usual ventilation following a random selection.

What participants receive

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

  • Intellivent; automatic mode implemented on a S1 ventilatorDevice

    Also called Closed-loop ventilation

    Intellivent allows an automatic adjustment of the following parameters: FiO2, PEEP and %VM according to adjusted parameters: Size, SpO2 and EtCO2

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Conventional ventilationNo interventionUsual ventilation is administered according to the protocols implemented in the unit
IntelliventExperimentalIntellivent is a ventilatory mode included in ventilator S1, Hamilton Medical. Intervention: the patient is ventilated with the same ventilator than in the conventionnal group; but the "ASV-Intellivent" ventilation has to be activated via a dedicated key on the ventilator screen. IntelliVent® activation requires selecting the kind of patient: ARDS, COPD and whether hemodynamic instability exists. The initial settings are IntelliVent® by default settings (% MV: 110%, PEEP: 5 cm H2O, FiO2: 60% - 100% in case of ARDS). Therefore modification of these various parameters is automatic. FiO2 and PEP are modified according to SpO2; %MV according to EtCO2.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety

    Safety is assessed by measuring the number of times it is necessary to manually intervene on the ventilator settings because for one the following parameters: A range SpO2, EtCO2, plateau pressure (Pplat), tidal volume (VT), respiratory rate (RR) values considered as non-optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.

    Measured: 48 Hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Efficacy

    Efficacy, in terms of ventilation, is assessed by the time spent within a range EtCO2 and Pplat-proxi and VT and RR values considered as optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.

    Efficacy, in terms of oxygenation, is assessed by the time spent within a range SpO2 values considered as optimal, as defined a priori and consensually by a panel of experts.

    Measured: 48 Hours

  2. Care workload

    Care workload is assessed by the number of ventilator setting adjustments by nursing staff in each group.

    Measured: 48H

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Intellivent; automatic mode implemented on a S1 ventilator in people with Respiratory Failure and Self Efficacy, run by Hamilton Medical AG at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 6 Dec 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 Belgium. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Safety (time frame: 48 Hours). 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 6 Dec 2012.
