About this study

Official title: Effects of High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy on Lung Recruitment and Lung Strain Change Assessed by Electrical Impedance Tomography

This study aimed to determine the effects of HFNC therapy on lung recruitment and lung strain change assessed by electrical impedance tomography (EIT)

Being tested
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC)

What participants receive

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

  • High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC)Other

    24 patients who receiving HFNC within 24 hours after extubation were prospectively enrolled in this study. EIT was used to monitor regional lung ventilation distributions at baseline (conventional oxygen therapy) and three flow rate levels of HFNC therapy (20, 40 and 60 L/min).

What is being measured

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

  1. lung regional ventilation distribution

    lung regional ventilation distribution measured by EIT

    Measured: minute 80

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of High-flow Nasal Cannula and Electrical Impedance Tomography, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jan 2020. 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.

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?

lung regional ventilation distribution (time frame: minute 80). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04245241, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Jan 2020.
