About this study

Official title: Efficacy of the Use of Enteral Feeding High in EPA,GLA and Antioxidants in LTAC Patients on Chronic Ventilation- a Pilot Study

Patients with mechanical ventilation have shown improved weaning rates when enteral tube feeding high in EPA, GLA and antioxidants were fed to patients in the critical care setting.

LTAC Patients on chronic mechanical ventilation will have decreased days an mechanical ventilation, decreased mortality rates and decreased organ failure when fed an enteral product high in EPA, GLA and antioxidants compared to an isotonic high fiber enteral nutrition product.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oxepa and Jevity 1.5 in people with Acute Lung Injury and Mechanical Ventilation Complication, run by Grace Hospital, Cleveland, Ohio at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 5 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 United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Length of days on mechanical ventilation (time frame: 14 days from start of enteral feeding). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?
