About this study

Official title: to Explore the Characteristics of Mean Airway Pressure, Oscillatory Amplitude and Power Spectral Density (PSD) of Oscillatory Airway Pressure That Generate by Various Loaded and Flow Rate During Expiration and Inspiration in Healthy Subjects

the aim of this study are to explore the characteristics of mean airway pressure, oscillatory amplitude and power spectral density (PSD) of oscillatory airway pressure that generate by various loaded and flow rate during expiration and inspiration in healthy subjects and to explore the best loaded and flow rate for airway secretion clearance using the BreatheMAX® device

Read the detailed description

For inspiratory group, the resistive load 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 cm H2O were test with three flow rate: 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 L/sec in each load. In each flow rate, the subjects were instructed to inspire as deeply as possible with steady flow rate for 3 seconds with end-inspiratory pause for 2-3 seconds through the inspiratory circuit and follow by passive exhalation. For expiratory group, the resistive load and flow rate were test similar inspiratory group. In each flow rate, the subjects were instructed to inspire as deeply as possible through the nose with end-inspiratory pause for 2-3 seconds and partially forced exhalation with reach to 1/3 of expiratory reserve volume (ERV) for at least 3 seconds through expiratory circuit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BreatheMAX breathing device in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Khon Kaen University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 3 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 5 Mar 2018. 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 Thailand. 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?

PSD of oscillatory airway pressure (time frame: 5 seconds during inspiration and expiration testing period). 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 5 Mar 2018.
