About this study

Official title: Application of Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist to Children After Congenital Cardiac Surgery: the Effect of Patient-ventilator Interaction, Gas Exchange and Hemodynamics

Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a new mode of mechanical ventilation that delivers ventilatory assist in proportion to neural effort. It was a controlled randomized single-center prospective study in order to explore the efficacy of this new mode of mechanical ventilation after corrective open-heart surgery for congenital heart disease.

Read the detailed description
  1. To evaluate the effect of the patient-ventilator interaction in children underwent open-heart surgery when ventilated with NAVA, compared with conventional mechanical ventilation.
  2. To verify the benefits of NAVA in improving the gas exchange and hemodynamics after biventricle repair for CHD.
Being tested
mode of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist, Mode of pressure support ventilation
Keywords

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing mode of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist and Mode of pressure support ventilation in people with Mechanical Ventilation Complication and Congenital Heart Disease, run by Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Limin Zhu, MD (8621-38626161 ext. 6622, zhulimin121@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Asynchrony index and Comfort Scale (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 10 Aug 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
