About this study

Official title: Ultrasound Observation of Diaphragmatic Atrophy Related to Mechanical Ventilation A Prospective Monocentric Study in Intensive Care Unit

Ventilatory support during critical phase result in inactivity of respiratory muscles especially diaphragm muscle. These inactivity also result in change of contractile capability and quick muscular atrophy.

The aim of the study is to visualize the evolution of diaphragm thickness by echography during Mechanical Ventilation for patients with septic shock or acute respiratory distress syndrome and to compare with the evolution for patients under non-invasive ventilation and those with spontaneous ventilation. Measurements will be performed at day 1, day 5 and day 10 (if patient still under a mode of ventilation or in the unit).

The evolution of diaphragm thickness will also be compared to pectoralis muscle atrophy, which is not involved in ventilation, in order to assess respective effect of ventilatory inactivity and undernutrition linked to intensive care.

What participants receive

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

  • UltrasoundDevice

    An ultrasound of the right diaphragm will be performed on day 1, day 3, day 5 and day 10

  • UltrasoundDevice

    An ultrasound of the pectoral muscle will be performed on day 1, day 3, day 5 and day 10

  • Neuromyopathy scoreOther

    A neuromyopathy score will be assessed on the extubation day

  • Respiratory performancesOther

    An assessment of the respiratory performances will be done on the extubation day, including higher expiratory pressure, higher inspiratory pressure, and occlusion pressure

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from day 1 diaphragm thickness at day 3 and day 5

    Diaphragm thickness measured by ultrasound

    Measured: 1 day, 3 days and 5 days after introduction of Mechanical Ventilation

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Diaphragm thickness measured by ultrasound

    Measured: 10 days after introduction of Mechanical Ventilation

  2. Type of ventilatory support

    Define which type of ventilatory support is used (mechanical ventilation, non-invasive ventilation, or spontaneous ventilation)

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  3. Ventilatory mode

    Ventilatory mode (controlled ventilation, pressure support ventilation)

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  4. Pectoralis muscle thickness measured by ultrasound

    To compare the importance of this atrophy to those of diaphragmatic muscle

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  5. Diaphragmatic strength

    Relation between diaphragmatic atrophy and decrease of diaphragmatic strength

    Measured: intraoperative

  6. Early or late extubation failure rate (extubation performed before or after 48 hours)

    Relation between diaphragmatic atrophy importance and premature (<48h) or late extubation failure

    Measured: The last day of hospitalisation

  7. MRC score (Medical Research Council)

    Relation between diaphragmatic atrophy and decrease of diaphragmatic strength

    Measured: intraoperative

  8. Length of ventilation in hours

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  9. Drug administration

    Presence of drug administration such as curare, corticoid or sedative. If yes : number of days with treatment

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  10. Total positive end expiratory pressure

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  11. External positive end expiratory pressure

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  12. Respiratory rate

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  13. Highest inspiratory pressure level

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  14. Highest expiratory pressure level

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

  15. Volume of exhaled air

    Measured: 10 days after start of ventilatory support

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ultrasound, Neuromyopathy score and Respiratory performances in people with Septic Shock and Acute Respiratory Distress, run by Centre Hospitalier Saint Joseph Saint Luc de Lyon.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 4 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Change from day 1 diaphragm thickness at day 3 and day 5 (time frame: 1 day, 3 days and 5 days after introduction of Mechanical Ventilation). 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 4 Apr 2024.
