About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomised Study on Preoxygenation in the Intensive Care Unit Using a Nose-mouth Mask Versus High Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen.

Preoxygenation is routinely performed before endotracheal intubation. In the intensive care unit, preoxygenation is often accomplished using a nose-mouth mask. It seems probable that high flow nasal cannula oxygen, which is used in the treatment of patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure, is equally effective in preventing the development of hypoxemia during intubation. In this prospective randomized study preoxygenation using high flow nasal cannula oxygen is compared with preoxygenation via nose-mouth mask in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure.

Being tested
Nose-mouth mask, High flow nasal cannula oxygen, Intubation

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean decrease in the saturation of oxygen (SpO2) during intubation.

    Mean decrease in the saturation of oxygen measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2 [%]) during intubation.

    Measured: during intubation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in blood gases after intubation.

    Changes in arterial blood gases collected from arterial line (PaO2/FiO2 [mmHg] and PaCO2 [mmHg]) after intubation.

    Measured: 30 minutes after intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nose-mouth mask, High flow nasal cannula oxygen and Intubation in people with Respiratory Failure, run by Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 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 3 Feb 2021. 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 Germany. 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?

Mean decrease in the saturation of oxygen (SpO2) during intubation. (time frame: during intubation). 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 NCT01994928, 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 3 Feb 2021.
