About this study

Official title: Cerebral Regional Tissue Oxygen Saturation to Guide Oxygen Delivery in Preterm Neonates During Immediate Transition After Birth (COSGOD) - a Prospective Two-centre Randomized Controlled Pilot Feasibility Study

Objective: Objective of this pilot feasibility study is to monitor crSO2 using NIRS INVOS 5100 (Somanetics, USA) in addition to SpO2 monitoring to guide supplemental oxygen delivery and respiratory support based on both measurements in preterm neonates during the first 15 minutes after birth.

Patients: Preterm neonates <34+0 weeks of gestation born via caesarean section and/or who require respiratory support will be eligible for the study.

Design: A prospective two-centre randomized controlled pilot feasibility study

Methods: Study group: Pulse oximetry will be used to measure SpO2 and heart rate as routine non-invasive monitoring in the first minutes of resuscitation. In addition during the first 15 minutes NIRS measurements will be recorded. crSO2 measurements in addition SpO2 measurements will be used to guide supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support during the first 15 minutes after birth. Control group: Only SpO2 measurements will be used to guide supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support during the first 15 minutes after birth.

Hypothesis: Supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support guided by crSO2 and SpO2 measurements will reduce the time in % minutes of crSO2 <10th or >90th centile in preterm neonates during the first 15 minutes after birth

Outcome Parameter: Primary outcome parameter will be duration in % minute of crSO2 <10th or >90th centile.

Being tested
Near Infrared Spectroscopy, Pulse-oximetry

What participants receive

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

  • Near Infrared SpectroscopyDevice

    If crSO2 is <10th centile, CPAP via face mask will be started or oxygen support will be increased depending SpO2, on the infants breathing efforts and the heart rate. If crSO2 remains stable >10th centile, or if crSO2 is > 90th centile CPAP via face mask will be stopped or FiO2 will be reduced depending on SpO2, the infants breathing efforts and the heart rate.

  • Pulse-oximetryDevice

    If SpO2 remains <10th centile, respiratory support via face mask will be started or FiO2 will be increased depending on the infants breathing efforts and the heart rate. If SpO2 remains stable or if SpO2 is >90th centile respiratory support via face mask will be stopped or FiO2 will be reduced depending on the infants breathing efforts and the heart rate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Near Infrared Spectroscopy and Pulse-oximetry in people with Oxygen Saturation, run by Medical University of Graz at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 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 17 Apr 2015. 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 Austria, Canada. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (crSO2) (time frame: 15 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 NCT02017691, 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 17 Apr 2015.
