About this study

Official title: Validation of the Measure of ETCO2, Compared to PTCO2 and PaCO2 in the Home-ventilated Neuromuscular Patient

The purpose of this study is to compare the measure of the CO2 obtained on the end-tidal expiratory gas (ETCO2) with the value of CO2 obtained by transcutaneous measure (PTCO2), in home-ventilated neuromuscular patients.

Read the detailed description

Monitoring of the effectiveness of ventilation in patients with neuromuscular require to regularly measure blood gases and in particular carbon dioxide (CO2). The reference technique is arterial puncture. In recent years, a non-invasive techniques measuring CO2 by transcutaneous sensor (PTCO2) was introduced among the tools regularly used for follow-up monitoring of home ventilated patients.

Another technique for monitoring CO2, originally developed for anesthesia, is based on the measurement of exhaled CO2 (ETCO2). This technique requires relatively simple equipment, and represents a potential alternative for monitoring home-ventilated patients.

Recently, sensors for ETCO2 were coupled to devices for home ventilation. To the best of our knowledge, the role of ETCO2 in monitoring long-term ventilated patients has not been investigated to date.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the correlation between the two non-invasive methods for measuring CO2: PTCO2 and ETCO2, in a group of home-ventilated patients with neuromuscular disease.

The patients will be recruited during a routine follow-up hospitalization for their home-ventilation, and the ETCO2 will be measured during one night, in addition to the routinely measured PTCO2.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuromuscular Disease and Chronic Respiratory Insufficiency, run by Centre d'Investigation Clinique et Technologique 805 at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 26 Feb 2016. 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 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?

concordance between the nocturnal average values of ETCO2 and PTCO2 (time frame: one night). 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 NCT02068911, 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 26 Feb 2016.
