Trial summary

Aeroneb Solo Adapter is a vibrating-mesh nebulizer Aeroneb Solo combined to a spacer specifically designed for spontaneously breathing patients. This device has not been investigated in vivo yet. It's known that using a spacer during nebulization improves aerosol delivery. Read more about this study

About this study

Aeroneb Solo Adapter is a vibrating-mesh nebulizer Aeroneb Solo combined to a spacer specifically designed for spontaneously breathing patients. This device has not been investigated in vivo yet.

It's known that using a spacer during nebulization improves aerosol delivery. We hypothetized that lung deposition could be highly increased with the Aeroneb Solo Adapter in comparison to a standard jet nebulizer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pulmonary deposition

    Planar scintigraphy and single photon emission computed tomography as imaging techiques

    Measured: immediately after nebulization by imaging assessment, an expected average of 15 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Three-dimensional penetration index

    Single photon emission computed tomography as imaging technique

    Measured: immediately after the nebulization by imaging assessment, expected average of 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Technetium-99m - Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, Aeroneb Solo Adapter and Opti-Mist Plus Nebulizer in people with Healthy, run by Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain at 1 site in Belgium.

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 1 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 17 Nov 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 Belgium. 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?

Pulmonary deposition (time frame: immediately after nebulization by imaging assessment, an expected average of 15 minutes). 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 NCT02298101, 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 17 Nov 2015.
