Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: All consecutive patients admitted to participating ICUs will be screened daily. Only patients meeting inclusion criteria for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure will be enrolled into the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥18-year old.
  • Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation, independent of whether the need for ventilatory support is shorter or longer than 24 hours. Only patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation can be included, although patients could have been on non-invasive ventilation before intubation.
  • PaO2/FiO2 ≤300 mmHg on invasive mechanical ventilation with a PEEP of 5 cmH2O or more, and with a FiO2 of 0.3 or more.

Who cannot join

  • No patients shhould be excluded (if they meet all the inclusion criteria), regardless of the underlying disease, estimated life expectancy, or duration of invasive mechanical ventilation.

About this study

This study is aimed to establish the epidemiological chacacteristics and clinical outcomes of mechanically ventilated patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure admitted in a network of hospitals from Wales (U.K.).

Read the detailed description

The present study is aimed to establish the epidemiological characteristics and clinical outcomes of adult mechanically ventilated patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure [defined as a PaO2/FiO2 ≤300 mmHg on positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cmH2O or more and FiO2 of 0.3 or more] admitted in a network of hospitals from Wales (U.K.). Although there are few previous published observational studies examining the incidence and mortality of patients with acute respiratory failure and ARDS, there are no studies specifically assessing the epidemiological characteristics, patterns of ventilation and clinical outcomes in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in the current era of lung protective ventilation. This study will be done simultaneously with the PANDORA (NCT03145974) in Spain.

The study is aimed to improve the knowledge on the epidemiology and outcome of ventilated patients, to identify the percentage of patients developing ARDS under the current definition, to validate a bedside scoring system for stratification of lung severity, and to examine the prognosis of hypoxemic respiratory failure, and risk factors associated with fatal outcome.

What participants receive

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

  • mechanical ventilationDevice

    Also called ventilatory support

    Consecutive intubated pateints receiving mechanical ventilation with a PaO2/FiO2≤300 mmHg on positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cmH2O or more and FiO2 of 0.3 or more.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of hypoxemic acute respiratory failure

    The investigators will calculate the prevalence in relation to: (i) total number of ICU admissions; (ii) total number of mechanically ventilated patients during the study period; and (iii) per ICU bed available over the study period.

    Measured: 4 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Death in the hospital

    outcome before discharge to home (overall and in each category of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure)

    Measured: Hospital stay (maximum 6 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Respiratory Insufficiency, run by Hospital Universitario de Gran Canaria Doctor Negrín at 12 sites in United Kingdom.

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 18 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United Kingdom. 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?

Prevalence of hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (time frame: 4 months). 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 18 Jul 2019.
