About this study

Official title: Comparison of Proportional Assisted Ventilation and Pressure Support Ventilation in Adult Patients With Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted to collect patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation. Patients were randomly assigned to receive PAV+ or PSV as weaning mode. Weaning outcomes were compared between 2 groups.

Read the detailed description

Pressure support ventilation (PSV) the most frequently used mode of ventilator support in intensive care units, but has several demerits. Proportional assist ventilation with load-adjustable gain factors (PAV+) is a promising mode with better patient synchrony and weaning advantages. However, weaning outcome of PAV+ in patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation has not been evaluated before. We conducted a prospective randomized controlled trial in a tertiary medical center. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness between PAV+ and PSV for weaning adult patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation.

What is being measured

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

  1. 28-day weaning success rate

    Weaning success was defined as being alive and liberation from MV for more than 48 hours.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Weaning duration

    Weaning duration was defined as the time from randomization to successful liberation from MV. For those who failed to liberate from MV throughout the course of weaning trial, the weaning duration was defined from randomization to the end of study (up to 28 days).

    Measured: up to 28 days

  2. Hospital length of stay

    Patients were followed to discharge to calculate the length of hospitalization

    Measured: up to 123 days

  3. Weaning success at discharge

    Patients were followed to discharge to calculate weaning success rate at discharge, which is defined as status of being alive and successful weaned at patient discharge

    Measured: up to 123 days

  4. Hospital mortality

    Patients were followed to discharge to calculate the mortality rate during hospitalization.

    Measured: up to 123 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PAV+ mode and PSV mode in people with Respiratory Failure and Respiration, Artificial, run by Kaohsiung Veterans General Hospital. at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Oct 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 Taiwan. 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?

28-day weaning success rate (time frame: 28 days). 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 30 Oct 2019.
