About this study

Delirium is one of main adverse events in ventilated patients who receive long-term usage of mono-sedative. Sequential sedation may reduce these adverse effects. This study aimed to evaluate incidence and risk factors for delirium in sequential sedation patients.

Read the detailed description

Previous studies have showed that patients under mechanical ventilation have a higher risk for experiencing delirium than nonmechanically ventilated patients (20%-50%). Its occurrence is also more frequent in elder patients. More than that, it is often hard to identify delirium by physicians, leading to unreasonable management of ICU patients.

And delirium is one of main adverse events in ventilated patients who receive long-term usage of mono-sedative. Sequential sedation may reduce these adverse effects.

However, few present studies focus on delirium in sequential sedation patients. Thus, in this study, we aimed to determine the factors of delirium in patients who received sequential sedation in ICU.

What is being measured

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

  1. Delirium assessment in Sequential Sedation Patients

    The primary outcome of this study was delirium. Patient evaluations were implemented using Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU) scale every four hours a day for a maximum of twenty-eight days or until ICU discharge, whichever occurred first. The risk factors were analyzed using risk regression (logistic-regression). Any variables which had P<0.2 after univariable logistic-regression or potential variables associated with delirium were included for multivariable logistic-regression. P<0.05 was considered to represent statistical significance.

    Measured: A maximum of twenty-eight days or until ICU discharge, whichever occurred first.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Delirium and Mechanical Ventilation, run by West China Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 13 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 21 Jun 2017. 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 China. 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?

Delirium assessment in Sequential Sedation Patients (time frame: A maximum of twenty-eight days or until ICU discharge, whichever occurred first.). 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 NCT03194360, 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 21 Jun 2017.
