About this study
Official title: Effect of Ultraprotective Ventilation on the Lung Inflammatory Response in Patients With Acute Pulmonary Edema Treated With Venoarterial Extracorporeal Oxygenation
Mechanical ventilation, in spite of being a life-saving technique, can also induce lung injury (VILI) mediated by an inflammatory response, thus having a profound impact in the course of critically ill patients. Ventilatory strategies aimed to minimize this VILI have reduced mortality rates. Patients suffering cardiogenic pulmonary edema may need venoarterial extracorporeal oxygenation, at the same time they are being mechanically ventilated. The objective of this study is to analyze changes induced by the use of utraprotective ventilatory strategies in the inflammatory lung response of these patients and their impact on outcomes.
Read the detailed description
Mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of the critically-ill patients support, providing better gas exchange conditions while respiratory muscles rest. Providing this life-support technique may be harmful on the lung tissue, last decades research efforts were focused on minimizing the ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Knowledge regarding the mechanisms of this injury has led to changes in the clinical practice, consisting on the application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and the use of low tidal volumes, giving rise to the strategy known as "protective ventilation". Moreover, the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) techniques contributes to maintaining an adequate gas exchange until lung damage resolution. A tidal volume in the range of 6 ml/Kg of ideal body weight, with a reasonable level of PEEP is the standard of care for patients with the ARDS. However, optimal levels of tidal volume and PEEP have not been completely established. On the other side, decreasing tidal volume below 6 ml/Kg faces its own problems. The role of the so-called "ultraprotective" approaches, in which extracorporeal support is required to reduce tidal volumes up to 3 ml/kg or less, although feasible, is currently under research. During venoarterial ECMO, blood is removed from the vessels and pumped through a circuit where is oxygenated and CO2 is removed; finally, the blood is returned to the arterial circulation. The development of new circuits and devices made this therapy become safer and more useful, improving outcomes so that its application has been widespread to many centers all over the world. One of the ECMO advantages is carbon dioxide removal, which allows reducing tidal volume below 6 ml/kg. Ultraprotective strategies with 3 ml/kg have demonstrated to be feasible, but the additional benefit of this strategy is to be demonstrated. Therefore, in this study, patients suffering cardiogenic pulmonary edema requiring ECMO and mechanical ventilation are submitted to an ultraprotective ventilator strategy. Lung inflammatory response is measured before and after the intervention, in order to evaluate its impact in this subset of patients.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Ultraprotective ventilation in people with Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema and Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury, run by Fundación para la Investigación Biosanitaria del Principado de Asturias at 1 site in Spain.
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 2 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 Apr 2021. 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 Spain. 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?
Change in lung inflammatory mediators levels (time frame: Baseline and 18 hours after the intervention). 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 NCT03041428, which also lists 9 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 1 Apr 2021.
