About this study

Official title: High-flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy (Optiflow) in Hospitalized Infant With Moderate-to-severe Bronchiolitis: Multicentric Randomized Controlled Trial

Over the last decade, high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFN) has emerged as a new method to provide respiratory support in children with moderate to severe bronchiolitis.

However, any randomized clinical trial (RCT) have demonstrated that earlier support with HFN is superior to standard care including low -flow nasal oxygen therapy to reduce the risk of acute respiratory failure requiring non invasive (or tracheal) ventilation and subsequently the need of PICU transfer.

Read the detailed description

Open label, non-blinded multi-centre, randomised controlled trial comparing standard care including oxygen delivery via HFN versus standard nasal oxygen therapy in infants admitted to hospital with moderate-to-severe bronchiolitis.

What participants receive

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

  • High-flow nasal canula oxygen therapyDevice

    Also called Optiflow

    High-flow nasal canula oxygen therapy (HNF) using Optiflow junior system and AIRVO2 turbine (F\&P, NZ) at initial flow to 3l/kg/min (up to a maximum of 20l/min), FiO2 adjusted for SpO2 > 94%.

  • Low-flow oxygen therapy with standard nasal canulaDevice

    Also called Low-flow oxygen therapy

    flow adjusted to SpO2 > 94% (up to a maximum of 2l/min).

What is being measured

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

  1. patient in treatment failure in each group (control or HFN) requiring non-invasive (or endotracheal) ventilation and ventilation-support free days

    Treatment failure is defined if one or more following criteria are met: refractory apnea (> 3/h), oxygen requirement in HFN therapy arm exceeds fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ≥ 40 % or oxygen requirement in standard nasal oxygen therapy arm exceeds >2l/min to maintain oxygen saturation (SpO2) ≥94 %), m-WCAS score increased compared to admission at H6 and/or > 5 , PaCO2 (H6 ) increased compared to admission and > 60-70 mmHg.

    Measured: Up to an average of 7 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Transfer to pediatrics intensive care unit (PICU)

    Numbers of infants transferred to PICU in each arm

    Measured: at the end of the follow up (an average of 7 days)

  2. Length of stay in paediatric general ward unit

    number of days between the enrolment and return to home or the transfer to PICU when appropriate (treatment failure)

    Measured: at the end of the follow up (an average of 7 days)

  3. Oxgen-support free days

    number of oxygen support free days

    Measured: at the end of the follow up (an average of 7 days)

  4. Artificial nutritional-support free days

    number of artificial nutritional-support free days (enteral feeding or intravenous line)

    Measured: at the end of the follow up (an average of 7 days)

  5. Assessment of short term respiratory status

    Sequential assessment of short term (H1, 6, 12, 24) respiratory status including respiratory rate, heart-rate, SpO2, m-WCAS score, transcutaneous carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcPaCO2).

    Measured: at the end of the follow up (an average of 7 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High-flow nasal canula oxygen therapy and Low-flow oxygen therapy with standard nasal canula in people with Bronchiolitis, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site 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 6 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 30 Apr 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 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?

patient in treatment failure in each group (control or HFN) requiring non-invasive (or endotracheal) ventilation and ventilation-support free days (time frame: Up to an average of 7 days). 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 30 Apr 2018.
