About this study

Official title: Air-impingement Manipulation to Clear Subglottic Secretion Compared With Drainage Tube in Prolonged Intubated Patients, a Randomized Controlled Trial.

This is a randomized controlled trial compared two methods to drainage subglottic secretion in prolonged intubated patients.After enrolled, patients are randomized assigned to intermittent subglottic secretion drainage group and air-impingement manipulation group.

Read the detailed description

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most frequent infection occurring in patients who are admitted to the ICU. The accumulation of respiratory secretions in the subglottic space is a well-proven cause of VAP. Therefore, prevention should include the aspiration of secretions from the subglottic space. Investigators invented a manual method with high-flow air produced by resuscitator to impinge secretion from the subglottic space to oral cavity. This method has been granted as a patent by Chinese national intellectual property patent office, it has been used in investigators' daily work for more than 10 years and more than 20 Chinese ICUs have used it everyday. Investigators want to compare it with conventional method which uses a special intubation tube with an independent dorsal lumen to suction subglottic secretion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Manual air-impingement operation and subglottic secretion drainage in people with Ventilator Associated Pneumonia, run by Beijing Chao Yang Hospital 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 15 Aug 2014. 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.

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 Jie Li, Master (86-13552976483, lijie8497@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of participants with ventilator-associated pneumonia (time frame: Up to 28 days). 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 NCT02032849, 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 15 Aug 2014.
