About this study

Official title: Inferior Vena Cava Indexes (Collapsibility, Distensibility, Delta) in Positive Pressure Supports and Prediction Ability of Intravascular Volume Status in ICU Patients

Collapsibility (CI-IVC), distensibility (dIVC) and delta (ΔIVC) indices, which are dynamic measures of inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter, are used to assess the intravascular volume status in critically ill patients. Positive pressure support (PS) has been shown to induce IVC diameter distention by increasing intrathoracic pressure, and high positive expiratory pressure (PEEP) decreases the CI-IVC percentage (4). During Triggered positive pressure support it is necessary to clarify which IVC index is valid for measuring the volume status.it is aimed to compare the IVC indexes (CI-IVC, DIVC, ΔIVC), positive rate of change with pressure, correlation with central venous pressure and accurate prediction of volume status in patients with different positive pressure support.

Read the detailed description

The IVC diameters at different pressure supports were measured by the same clinician after obtaining a clear image of where the US and IVC measurements were made and the probe stabilization was achieved. He performed the procedure of changing the pressure supports, a blind independent intensive care physician without working, and recorded the applied pressure supports respectively. The different pressure supports applied are as follows:

  1. PS 10 mmHg-PEEP 5 mmHg,
  2. PS 0 mmHg- PEEP 5 mmHg
  3. PS 10 mmHg- PEEP 0 mmHg.
  4. T-tube (PS 0 mmHg-PEEP 0 mmHg)

  3. Determine the effect of positive pressure on IVC delta index

    Determine the effect on delta index of an increase in positive end-expiratory pressure and pressure support

    Measured: 12 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Positive-Pressure Respirations and Respiratory Failure, run by Tepecik Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 9 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 24 Apr 2018. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Determine the effect of positive pressure on IVC collapsibility index (time frame: 12 month). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Apr 2018.
