About this study

Evaluation of Wang's score as a predictor of the duration of oxygen therapy in bronchiolitis

Read the detailed description

Bronchiolitis is a viral disease of very variable evolution going from a simple outpatient treatment to the necessity of hospitalization in intensive care.

This epidemic disease is found all year round with a seasonal peak from mid-October to late winter.

The risk factors for progression to severe or prolonged bronchiolitis have been highlighted, but the duration of hospitalization is difficult to predict, which leads to organizational difficulties in the services and additional anxiety for the families.

The management of beds during winter epidemics can be a source of difficulties for hospitalization services, with the need to temporarily increase reception places or transfer children to other hospitals.

Oxygen rescue is the main factor limiting the discharge of the pediatric ward. This criterion seems to us more suitable than the total duration of hospitalization.

Indeed, other factors such as the family environment or food difficulties can delay the child's departure from the service. Their assessment seems to be more subjective, their assessment may vary from one doctor to another.

Better management of beds during winter epidemics could help to avoid changes in service during hospitalization, thus facilitating relationships between caregivers and families.

What is being measured

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

  1. Relationship between the duration of oxygen therapy and Wang's score

    Linear regression, to try to model the duration in hours of oxygen therapy according to Wang's score

    Measured: through oxygen therapy completion an average of 82 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. length of hospital stay

    Relationship between length of hospital stay in hours and Wang's score

    Measured: until the end of hospitalization an average of 10 days

  2. use of oxygen therapy

    Relationship between use of oxygen therapy and Wang's score

    Measured: until the end of hospitalization an average of 10 days

  3. transfer in intensive care

    Relationship between secondary transfer in intensive care and Wang's score

    Measured: until the end of hospitalization an average of 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bronchiolitis, run by Rennes University Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 5 Dec 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 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?

Relationship between the duration of oxygen therapy and Wang's score (time frame: through oxygen therapy completion an average of 82 hours). 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 5 Dec 2017.
