About this study

Official title: ZEPHYR: Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Study in Consecutive Patients Hospitalized for Acute Respiratory Failure Requiring Mechanical Ventilation With Endotracheal Tube. This Study Compared Two Ventilation Modes: NAVA Mode and Spontaneous Breathing With Inspiratory Pressure Support (the Latter is Considered as the Reference Ventilation Mode).

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open-label study which compared two ventilation modes: spontaneous NAVA mode and spontaneous breathing with IPS mode (the latter is considered as the reference ventilatory mode) in patients admitted to the ICU for acute respiratory failure and ventilated with an endotracheal tube. NAVA mode allows to minimize patient-ventilator disharmony with acceptable tolerance and to preserve spontaneous ventilation.

Being tested
NAVA endotracheal tube

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the benefit of NAVA mode as compared to IPS mode in terms of duration of spontaneous ventilation 48 hours after inclusion.

    The time spent in different modes of spontaneous ventilation (NAVA, IPS) and controlled ventilation (VAC controlled pressure) will be measured. The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients remaining in spontaneous ventilation after the first 48 hours.

    Measured: Continuous recording during 48 hours following the intubation

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Reduction of patient / ventilator disharmony, measured during the first 48 hours with the disharmony index

    Measured: Continuous recording during the first 48 hours

  2. Real-time spent in NAVA mode and frequency of returns in a controlled mode (controlled ventilation VAC).

    Feasibility of the initiation of mechanical ventilation in NAVA mode and feasibility of prolonged mechanical ventilation in NAVA mode

    Measured: Continuous recording during the first 48 hours

  3. Earnings on the "breathing comfort"

    Measured: Continuous recording during the first 48 hours

  4. Earnings on sleep architecture

    Total sleep time; Number of arousals per hour; Duration of stage IV sleep ; Duration of Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep.

    Measured: Continuous recording during the first 48 hours

  5. Tolerance

    • Adverse events associated with the use of the device.
    • Incidence of ventilator-acquired pneumonia.
    • Duration of ICU stay.
    • Duration of hospital stay.
    • Mortality in the ICU.
    • Hospital mortality.

    Measured: Continuous for the duration of ICU stay, an expected maximum of 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NAVA endotracheal tube in people with Acute Respiratory Failure, run by Clinact at 11 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 8 inclusion and 8 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 23 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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?

Evaluate the benefit of NAVA mode as compared to IPS mode in terms of duration of spontaneous ventilation 48 hours after inclusion. (time frame: Continuous recording during 48 hours following the 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 NCT02018666, 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 23 Dec 2013.
