About this study

Official title: A Comparison of Optimal Positive End-expiratory Pressure Determination Guided by Electrical Impedance Tomography and Protective Ventilation Tool by G5(MV) in Moderate and Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients

To Select the Optimal Positive End-expiratory Pressure in Moderate and Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients by Using:

  1. the novel Non-invasive Electrical Impedance Tomography Guided Method
  2. the Protective ventilation tool G5(MV)
Read the detailed description
  1. To titrate PEEP guided by EIT. A global inhomogeneity (GI) index and regional compliance based on EIT were developed to quantify the tidal volume distribution within the lung. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of optimizing PEEP with respect to ventilation homogeneity using the GI index and regional compliance.
  2. To titrate PEEP with the Protective Ventilation Tool by G5(MV). The new generation of ventilator will deliver an optimal PEEP on ARDS patients based on their status automatically.
Being tested
optimal PEEP guided by EIT, optimal PEEP guided by G5 ventilator
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • optimal PEEP guided by EITDevice

    Patients are randomly assigned to EIT group or G5 group. PEEP selected in EIT group is based on GI index and regional compliance. PEEP decided in G5 group is based on the ventilator.

  • optimal PEEP guided by G5 ventilatorDevice

    Patients are randomly assigned to EIT group or G5 group. PEEP selected in EIT group is based on GI index and regional compliance. PEEP decided in G5 group is based on the ventilator.

Study groups in NCT03112512
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
EITExperimentalPEEP titration is performed where EIT is measured at the same time. After PEEP titration, EIT data is analyzed. Global inhomogeneity index and regional compliance based on EIT are calculated. PEEP level is selected when ventilation distribution is most homogeneous.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing optimal PEEP guided by EIT and optimal PEEP guided by G5 ventilator in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Mei-Yun Chang at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 4 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 4 Sep 2020. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Respiratory system parameter (time frame: 48 hrs). 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 NCT03112512, which also lists 4 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 4 Sep 2020.
