About this study

Weaning from mechanical ventilation (MV) is a complex process in which patients are liberated from the ventilator. Prolongued weaning and weaning failure, defined as the need for reintubation, have different adverse effects, including prolongation of MV, intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay, and are also associated with increased incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and high mortality. The rate of weaning failure is high, even when the classic extubation criteria are met, so it is necessary to improve scores that allow predicting and determining the ideal time for MV withdrawal.

The aim of this study is to design a new multimodal index to predict and optimize weaning results in a personalized way, based on the use and interpretation of data derived from continuous monitoring of critically ill patients. The new multimodal index, in addition to classical respiratory parameters, will include parameters related to patient-ventilator interaction (asynchronies), diaphragmatic function, cardiovascular status and autonomic nervous system function (ANS).

The investigators have designed a prospective observational study that will include 126 critical patients from a medical-surgical ICU that meet the classical criteria for weaning. The management of the patients, as well as the weaning process, will be carried out following the usual protocol. In addition to the classical weaning predictor data, data on the patient-ventilator interaction and the function of the autonomic nervous system will be collected by means of specific software (BetterCare). Cardiovascular and diaphragmatic function will be evaluated using ultrasound. Based on the advanced analysis of data from different devices collected throughout the mechanical ventilation period, it will be designed a "personalized" weaning score that should improve the accuracy of the decision-making process and therefore reduce morbidity and mortality. Additional benefits would include lowering health care costs without increasing adverse events.

What is being measured

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

  1. Multimodal index for weaning prediction evaluation

    Number of successful weanings evaluated through the new multi-modal index compared to the classic indexes

    Measured: 48 hours after mechanical ventilation withdrawal

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Predictive value of patient-ventilator interaction

    association between asynchronies and weaning failure

    Measured: From day 1 of mechanical ventilation until 48 hours after mechanical ventilation withdrawal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Weaning Failure and Mechanical Ventilation Complication, run by Corporacion Parc Tauli at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 7 Feb 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 Spain. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Multimodal index for weaning prediction evaluation (time frame: 48 hours after mechanical ventilation withdrawal). 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 7 Feb 2024.
