Trial summary

Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is at risk for worsening hypoxemia in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). High-flow nasal cannula oxygen (HFNC) improves hypoxemia in ARF patients . We investigated its efficacy and tolerance in intensive care unit patients admitted for ARF requiring BAL.

  • Ages 18 years and older

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring bronchoalveolar lavage

Who may be able to join

  • presence of acute respiratory failure: defined as respiratory rate greater than 25/min, (or greater than 20/min if use of accessory respiratory muscles was present), in patients requiring oxygen greater than or equal to 6 L/min to obtain a pulse oximetry greater than 92%
  • need for bronchoalveolar lavage (decision to perform BAL was left at the physician's discretion)

Who cannot join

  • at least one contraindication to the bronchoscopy with BAL: acute coronary syndrome within 6 weeks; neurologic failure; thrombocytopenia less than 30 000/mm3; respiratory acidosis with a pH lower than 7.30 or hypercapnia higher than 60 mmHg; pneumothorax undrained.

About this study

Official title: High Flow Nasal Oxygen for Bronchoscopy With Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Acute Respiratory Failure Patients: the OptiBAL Study.

Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is at risk for worsening hypoxemia in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). High-flow nasal cannula oxygen (HFNC) improves hypoxemia in ARF patients . We investigated its efficacy and tolerance in intensive care unit patients admitted for ARF requiring BAL.

Read the detailed description

Prospective, observational, multicenter study in ARF patients (minimal pulse oximetry -SpO2- of 92% with an minimal oxygen flow of 6 L/min , respiratory rate > 25/min (20/min if use of accessory respiratory muscles) with a compatible etiology. Primary outcome measure is increase in ventilatory support (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) or endotracheal intubation (ETI)) within the first 24h following BAL.

What is being measured

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

  1. increase in ventilatory support

    increase in ventilatory support (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) or endotracheal intubation (ETI)) within the first 24h following BAL

    Measured: 24h

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Immediate tolerance of bronchoscopy and BAL

    Vital signs, dyspnea score

    Measured: 12h

  2. Operator's satisfaction

    Physician performing the BAL procedure rated their comfort with HFNC from 0 to 10

    Measured: 15min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Insufficiency, run by Hôpital Louis Mourier at 4 sites 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 2 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 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 4 sites 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?

increase in ventilatory support (time frame: 24h). 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 NCT02523573, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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.
