About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Noninvasive Ventilation Bundle in Postoperative Respiratory Failure

The investigators assessed the efficacy and safety of this noninvasive Ventilation (NIV) bundle strategy compared with a conventional treatment in postoperative patients with ARF.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, prospective, open-label study. Postoperative patients with ARF included in the study were randomly assigned to intervention group or conventional treatment group. In the intervention group, NIV was early used for treatment of postoperative respiratory failure, if patients were inability to spontaneously clear airways from excessive secretions during NIV, fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FBO) was used for suction of secretions , if patients showed intolerance or inadequate patient cooperation during the NIV session, they were sedated (Ramsay scale 2-3) by a continuous perfusion of propofol during the NIV session.

Patients assigned to the control group received supplemental oxygen, Respiratory therapists delivered this intervention using conventional masks or venturi oxygen, and adjusted FiO2 to achieve arterial O2 saturation of more than 92%. The application of noninvasive ventilation was considered, if patients failed the supplemental oxygen and met at least two of the following criteria:(1) severe respiratory distress with dyspnoea, respiratory rate>30breaths/min, and clinical signs suggestive of respiratory-muscle fatigue or increased respiratory effort (use of accessory respiratory muscles or paradoxical abdominal breathing, or intercostal indrawing), (2) respiratory acidosis (arterial pH of 7.35 or less with PaCO2 of 45 mm Hg or more) ;(3) arterial O2 saturation by pulse oximetry less than 90% or PaO2 less than 60 mm Hg at an FiO2> 0.5 or breathing at least 10 l/min oxygen.

All the patients were continuous monitored of vital signs.whereas arterial blood gases were analyzed before NIV and 1h after NIV, before and after FBO, and once a day and in the case of any change either in the ventilatory settings or in the FIO2; duration of noninvasive ventilation, the rate and cause of endotracheal intubation, ICU and hospital mortality and length of stay in the ICU and in hospital, study procedure related complications.

What participants receive

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

  • Early application of NIVOther

    Also called Early application of BiPAP Vision (Respironics)

    Device:BiPAP Vision.

    NIV bundle group : Early application of NIV(BiPAP Vision) in 1 h after randomization.

  • Fiberoptic bronchoscopyDevice

    Device:fiberoptic bronchoscopy. NIV bundle group :When patients were inability to spontaneously clear airways from excessive secretions during NIV, fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FBO) was used for suction of secretions.

  • PropofolDrug

    Also called Diprivan

    Drug:propofol.continuous perfusion of propofol (0.50-2.00 mg/kg/h).

    NIV bundle group :When patients showed intolerance or inadequate patient cooperation during the NIV session, they were sedated (Ramsay scale 2-3) by a continuous perfusion of propofol (0.50-2.00 mg/kg/h).

    In the conventional treatment group: No intervention.

  • Conventional application of NIVOther

    Also called Conventional application of BiPAP Vision (Respironics)

    Conventional treatment group:NIV(BiPAP Vision) was used, when patients failed the supplemental oxygen and met at least two of the following criteria:(1) severe respiratory distress with dyspnoea, respiratory rate>30breaths/min, and clinical signs suggestive of respiratory-muscle fatigue or increased respiratory effort (use of accessory respiratory muscles or paradoxical abdominal breathing, or intercostal indrawing), (2) respiratory acidosis (arterial pH of 7.35 or less with PaCO2 of 45 mm Hg or more) ;(3) arterial O2 saturation by pulse oximetry less than 90% or PaO2 less than 60 mm Hg at an FiO2> 0.5 or breathing at least 10 L/min oxygen.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Early application of NIV, Fiberoptic bronchoscopy and Propofol in people with Respiratory Insufficiency, run by West China 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 5 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 18 Aug 2015. 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?

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?

the need of endotracheal intubation (time frame: 7 days). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Aug 2015.
