About this study

Official title: Relation Between the Volume of Subglottic Secretion and Risk of Extubation Failure in ICU Patients

This study evaluates the relation between the volume of subglottic secretion before airway extubation and the risk of extubation failure in the ICU patient.

Read the detailed description

Between 10 and 20% of patients develop extubation failure (10.7% in our ICU at 2018), which is related to an increased in-hospital death rate, infections, higher costs and longer hospital stays. Tracheal secretions, LVEF<30%, MV > 7d, Weak of cough are identified as risk factors of extubation failures but are not completely performants. Avoiding reintubation remains an important clinical goal.

The subglottic secretion drainage above the cuff of an endotracheal tube is recognized as an effective method to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critically ill patients. The subglottic secretion drainage is used in a regular way in our ICU. Volume of subglottic secretion is not analysed in the scientific literature.

Study :

The investigators hypothesize that high volume of subglottic secretion before extubation is associated with high risk of extubation failure and à high risk of pneumonia post extubation.

All planned extubations in the intensive care unit after 2 days minimal of mechanic ventilation are recorded on a designated form and standard variables charted. All data will be collected retrospectively after the extubation event.

All included patients will be assigned a unique identification number (UID) by the investigator, who will secure the patient identifiers in an encrypted electronic file. The cause of extubation failure will be recorded (as identified by the attending physician on service, who is not involved in the study).

For statistical analysis, group that fail extubation, will be compared, with the group that was an extubation success. Standard demographics (age, sex), patient disease related factors (diagnosis, duration of intubation, secretions), care factors (cuff leak test, p/f ratio prior to extubation,LVEF<30% ), and post extubation care (post extubation respiratory support, stridor, blood gas, pneumonia) along with any complication during extubation and reintubation and reasons for reintubation will be collected and compared.

As two groups are being compared, bivariate analyses utilizing Chi-square tests or univariate logistic regression for categorical variables and Student t -tests for interval variables, will be done.

Investigators will perform an interim analysis at the end of 12 months and a final analysis

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03946371
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Extubation SuccessPatients who do not require re-intubation, upto 48 hours after a planned extubation in the adult intensive care unit.
Extubation failurePatients who required re-intubation within 48 hours after a planned extubation in adult intensive care unit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Extubation failure

    defined as a need for reintubation within 48 h after extubation

    Measured: 48 hours

  2. Volume of Subglottic Secretion

    Quantity (ml) of pre-extubation subglottic secretion during the duration of mechanical

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Weaning mechanical ventilation failure

    Use of non-invasive ventilation ( non-invasive ventilation / High-Flow Nasal Cannula) for curative purposes within 7 days after extubation or failure extubate within 72 hours (7 days if using NIV-HFNC)

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Pneumonia post extubation

    If diagnosis retained by the doctor in charge of the patient and antibiotherapy set up for a duration of more than 5 days and occurred within 7 days post extubation

    Measured: 7 days

  3. Length of stay in ICU

    Length of stay in ICU

    Measured: 22 month

  4. Mortality

    Death

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Airway Extubation and Pneumonia, Bacterial, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2019. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Clément VILLARET (+33789233860, clementvillaret@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Extubation failure (time frame: 48 hours). The study lists 2 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 10 May 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
