Trial summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of nasal broadband glasses HFNC (High Flow Nasal Cannula) in the initial management of severe bronchiolitis in infants admitted in ICU. Nasal HFNC can deliver warmed humidified gas through a nasal interface, greatly improving the safety and efficacy of administering O2. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Using Nasal Broadband Glasses HFNC (High Flow Nasal Cannula) in the Initial Management of Severe Bronchiolitis in Infants Admitted in ICU: Bicentric Observational Study on the 2013-2014 Epidemic

The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of nasal broadband glasses HFNC (High Flow Nasal Cannula) in the initial management of severe bronchiolitis in infants admitted in ICU.

Nasal HFNC can deliver warmed humidified gas through a nasal interface, greatly improving the safety and efficacy of administering O2. This device generates a continuous positive pressure in the airways, to reduce the work of breathing. The sealing absence of the HFNC at the nasal interface improves patient comfort and avoiding nasal trauma.

Read the detailed description

Bronchiolitis in infants is a common and potentially serious disease. It corresponds to an acute pulmonary disease and dyspnea usually viral (70 to 80% of Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in infants less than 1 year). It particularly affects infants under 2 years.

The 2001 consensus conference and bronchiolitis 2006 on the management clarified the criteria for hospitalization and simplified therapeutic attitudes. These conferences have highlighted the importance of humidification, the nasopharyngeal desobstruction for less severe forms of oxygen therapy and for others. Recent literature has also shown that the use of noninvasive ventilation type Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) nasal or broadband nasal glasses (HFNC: High Flow Nasal canula) in severe forms possible to reduce the work of breathing of children with severe bronchiolitis and their use in studies "before / after" was accompanied by a significant decrease in the use of invasive ventilation.

The HFNC and nasal CPAP can deliver warmed humidified gas through a nasal interface, greatly improving the safety and efficacy of administering O2. These devices generate a continuous positive pressure in the airways, for decreasing the work of breathing. The sealing absence of the HFNC at the nasal interface improves patient comfort and avoiding nasal trauma, sometimes encountered with nasal CPAP interfaces.

The HFNC is a simple, effective and safe, commonly used in severe bronchiolitis admitted in ICU (Intensive Care Unit). However instead of this technique is not yet well defined.

The investigators assume that the use of HFNC in severe bronchiolitis in first line allows sufficient respiratory improvement to avoid recourse to other technical assistance ventilatory more binding.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of early success for the number of bronchiolitis who once admitted in the ICU and placed HFNC will not need another support ventilation mode after one hour of treatment (H1)

    the number of children who once set HFNC at baseline Hour 0 will not need another breathing assistance technique After 1 hour H1 of treatment

    Measured: after one hour of treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall success rate

    Number of children who will not need another technique while respiratory assistance throughout the ICU stay

    Measured: Comparison between baseline Hour 0 and after 1 hour of treatment

  2. Demographic predictive factors of failure of HFNC

    Correlation of demographic data Hour 0 to failure of HFNC

    Measured: At baseline hour 0

  3. Clinical predictive factors of failure of HFNC

    Correlation of clinical data Hour 0 to failure of HFNC

    Measured: At baseline hour 0

  4. The child's comfort HFNC

    Neonatal pain and discomfort scale " Échelle Douleur Inconfort Nouveau-Né" (EDIN)) Scores comparison to Hour 0, Hour 1, Hour 12

    This scale evaluates the prolonged pain and discomfort of the child, an hetero assesor measures by 5 items about face, body, sleep, comfort and relationship. Each item scores from 0 to 5. 0 means no pain or discomfort symptoms and 5 means the maximum symptoms.

    Global score will be from 0 to 15.

    Measured: comparison to Hour 0, Hour 1, Hour 12

  5. Incidence of adverse events in HFNC

    Frequency and types of adverse events throughout the ICU hospitalization period

    Measured: From baseline hour 0 to the end of hospitalization

  6. Effectiveness of HFNC after 1 hour of application

    comparaison of clinical data between baseline and 1 Hour of HFNC application.

    Measured: Comparison between baseline Hour 0 and after 1 hour of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Flow Nasal Cannula in people with Bronchiolitis, run by Fondation Lenval at 2 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 9 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 1 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

Rate of early success for the number of bronchiolitis who once admitted in the ICU and placed HFNC will not need another support ventilation mode after one hour of treatment (H1) (time frame: after one hour of treatment). 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 1 Aug 2019.
