Trial summary

Hyaline membrane disease is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in premature newborns in industrialized countries. For 30 years, the management of the hyaline membranes disease has been transformed by intratracheal administration of exogenous surfactant (Curosurf®) at birth or in the following hours.

About this study

Hyaline membrane disease is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in premature newborns in industrialized countries. For 30 years, the management of the hyaline membranes disease has been transformed by intratracheal administration of exogenous surfactant (Curosurf®) at birth or in the following hours. In order to limit the harmful effects in terms of barotrauma of mechanical ventilation, several methods have been developed over the last decades, aiming at limiting the mechanical ventilation to the profile of non-invasive ventilation: Thus the administration of surfactant has become faster (although invasive) and if possible followed by immediate extubation following the INSURE (INtubation / SURfactant / Extubation) or LISA (Less-Invasive Surfactant Administration) procedure.

Given the fragility of the children concerned and their low weight, this invasive gesture has long been carried out without premedication. However, taking into account the pain induced and potential hemodynamic consequences of the gesture, neonatal societies now recommend the use of anesthetic before intubation, with a short duration sedative.

Propofol is a general anesthetic that combines these conditions and is widely used in pediatric anesthesia.

In that way, since 2016, the invetigators have modified the sedation protocol for intubation in our department and have recommended Propofol as first-line treatment for term and preterm newborn. A lot of study showed its hemodynamic safety in preterms. However, the investigators lack data on the autonomic stress really observed during intubation in this population. The investigators therefore propose to evaluate these physiological data in a non-randomized prospective observational study in premature infants under 33 weeks of gestational amenorrhea (GA), during a sedation protocol for intubation and surfactant administration according the INSURE or LISA technique, with standardized doses of propofol : 1mg/kg for preterm infants with a birthweight less than 1.5kg and 1.5mg/kg for higher birthweight.

What is being measured

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

  1. Real-time LF values (low frequency)

    • represent the well-being sympathetic activity of the autonomic nervous system
    • measured with electrocardiogram

    Measured: during surfactant administration procedure

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. heart rate

    • measured with electrocardiogram

    Measured: during surfactant administration procedure

  2. systolic arterial blood pressure

    • measured with a blood pressure cuff

    Measured: during surfactant administration procedure

  3. diastolic arterial blood pressure

    • measured with a blood pressure cuff

    Measured: during surfactant administration procedure

  4. Oxygen saturation

    • measured by pulse oximetry

    Measured: during surfactant administration procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyaline Membrane Disease and Preterm Infant, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne 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 4 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 4 Mar 2024. 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?

Real-time LF values (low frequency) (time frame: during surfactant administration procedure). 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 4 Mar 2024.
