About this study

This study try to use EIT ( Electronic impedance tomography ) to evaluate the alveolar heterogeneity and use trans-pulmonary pressure and stain to evaluate the lung injury . The study use these methods to figure out how PEEP impact the alveolar heterogeneity and VILI.

Read the detailed description

ARDS(Acute respiratory distress syndrome )is common in patients suffering Sepsis, trauma, burning and other sever condition and characterized by diffuse alveolar damage and alveolar heterogeneity.ARDS patient need MV(mechanical ventilation )to maintain oxygenation and need unique MV tragedy to avoid VILI(Ventilator induced Lung injury ).PEEP(post-end-expiratory pressure) is crucial to maintain oxygenation and avoid VILI according to researches. But there are also some other research different voice. This study try to use EIT ( Electronic impedance tomography ) to evaluate the alveolar heterogeneity and use trans-pulmonary pressure and stain to evaluate the lung injury . The study use these methods to figure out how PEEP impact the alveolar heterogeneity and VILI.

What participants receive

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

  • Post-end-Expiratory pressureDevice

    Titrate the PEEP from 24 cmH2O to 6 cmH2O, 2 cmH2O/step and record EIT, trans-pulmonary pressure, hemodynamic parameter and Blood-gas analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. alveolar hyper-distention; alveolar collapse;alveolar opening and closing;

    The study use Pulmo Vista 500 device (Drager co.),is intended to perform thoracic bioimpedance measurements by applying the technique of electrical impedance tomography (EIT)to evaluate alveolar hyper-distention(%of the lung volume); alveolar collapse(% of the lung volume);alveolar opening and closing(% of the lung volume).

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  2. Trans-pulmonary pressure

    The researchers place tube in the esophagus and connect it to transmitter to measure esophageal pressure (mmHg)and calculate trans-pulmonary pressure(mmHg) to evaluate stress

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  3. EELV

    The research use nitrogen wash out to measure EELV(end-expiratory lung volume, ml) to calculate dynamic strain and evaluate the strain

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  4. peak pressure

    The researchers use ventilator to measure peak pressure(cmH2O) in patients with mechanical ventilation and without spontaneous breathing..

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  5. plateau pressure

    The researchers use ventilator to do inspiration pause to measure plateau pressure(cmH2O) in patients with mechanical ventilation and without spontaneous breathing.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  6. tidal volume

    The researchers use ventilator to measure tidal volume(ml) in patients with mechanical ventilation and without spontaneous breathing..

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  7. respiratory rate

    The researchers record the set respiratory rate(bpm) in patients with mechanical ventilation.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  8. flow

    The researchers record the set Flow (L/min) in patients with mechanical ventilation.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  9. FiO2

    The researchers record the set FiO2 ( fraction of inspiratory oxygen, %) in patients with mechanical ventilation.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  10. PaO2

    The researchers use blood gas analysis to measure PaO2( arterial oxygen pressure,mmHg)

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  11. PaCO2

    The researchers use blood gas analysis to measure PaCO2( arterial carbon dioxide pressure,mmHg) .

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. SBP

    Recording SBP(systolic pressure, mmHg),which is always continuously monitored with invasive pressure monitor.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

  2. DBP

    Recording DBP(Diastolic pressure, mmHg),which is always continuously monitored with invasive pressure monitor.

    Measured: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2022. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

alveolar hyper-distention; alveolar collapse;alveolar opening and closing; (time frame: September,1,2018-December 30, 2020). The study lists 11 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 19 Jul 2022.
