About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate an Optimization Procedure of Alveolar Recruitment During Transport Performed by Nurse Anesthetists in Intensive Care

Intra hospital transport of ICU patients is still at high risk of respiratory complications.We propose to determine if endotracheal tube clamping prior to disconnect ventilator allows to avoid oxygenation decrease.

Read the detailed description

Changing respiratory support and multiples endotracheal tube disconnections may induce a loss of PEEP and finally lead to alveolar derecruitment. This study is an evaluation of a care procedure to limit the incidence of alveolar derecruitment in ventilated intubated ICU patients during transport for CT scan.

Intra hospital transport of ICU patients are performed by anesthesiologist nurses, the physician entrusts them this activity.

This is a randomized controlled study, the procedure is to clamp endotracheal tube before each disconnection from ventilator.

Being tested
Clamping of the ventilator endotracheal tube

What participants receive

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

  • Clamping of the ventilator endotracheal tubeProcedure or surgery

    The transport will be released in accordance with SFAR SRLF guideline. Before each disconnection from ventilator endotracheal tube will be clamped.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control groupNo interventionThe transport will be released without a clamping of endotracheal tube before each disconnection from ventilator.
Clamping groupExperimentalThe transport will be released with a clamping of endotracheal tube before each disconnection from ventilator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure of the pa02/Fi02

    Evaluate the effectiveness of a procedure to avoid alveolar delisting, measured by the absence of a decrease in the PaO2/FiO2 ratio (before transport and 1 hour after return to bed) during an HIT performed by a nurse anaesthetist/caregiver team, of intubated and ventilated resuscitation patients in a controlled assisted volume.

    Measured: 1 hour after the end of the transport

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Assessment of the pa02

    Evaluate the impact of the procedure on the absence of PaO2 reduction (before transport and 1 hour after return to bed)

    Measured: 1 hour after the end of the HIT

  2. Assessment of the pa02

    Evaluate the effectiveness of the procedure on Pa02 immediately after reconnection to the heavy resuscitation ventilator

    Measured: immediately after the end of the HIT

  3. Assessment of the pa02

    Evaluate the effectiveness of the procedure on Pa02 immediately after reconnection to the heavy resuscitation ventilator

    Measured: 6 hours after the end of of the HIT

  4. length of stay

    Evaluate the impact of the intervention on the length of ICU stay

    Measured: up to 28 days

  5. duration of invasive ventilation

    Evaluate the impact of the intervention on the invasive ventilation

    Measured: up to 28 days

  6. occurrence of adverse events during the HIT

    occurrence of adverse events related to the clamping

    Measured: immediately after the end of the HIT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Clamping of the ventilator endotracheal tube in people with Respiratory Complication, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 31 May 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?

Measure of the pa02/Fi02 (time frame: 1 hour after the end of the transport). 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 31 May 2024.
