Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of intermittent, nearly vertical, patient positioning in a specialized upright bed, on outcomes of mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who are in the ICU. This study is a prospective, non-blinded, feasibility, randomized study of ARDS patients, who will be randomized into two treatment groups. One treatment arm will deliver scheduled sessions of upright bed positioning (study intervention), while the other treatment arm receives routine bed position care (care provided exclusively with the bed in the supine position). ICU Practitioners know that positional changes improve clinical outcomes when turning patients from supine to prone (back to belly); however, other positional changes including upright positioning are far less studied. It is well known that in ARDS patients who become proned, an improvement in aeration occurs in the dorsal lung regions (prone positioning has been shown to reduce ARDS mortality). Thus the investigators predict that in this study, the upright positioning holds the potential to further recruit collapsed lung areas. Augmentation of aerated lung while in the upright position is expected to increase the highest value measured per ventilator day of the respiratory system compliance in the upright bed position arm, in a greater fashion than the highest value measured per ventilator day of daily total respiratory system compliance for the usual care arm.

What is being measured

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

  1. highest value per day of mechanical ventilation of total respiratory system compliance

    total respiratory system compliance measured 4x daily for each day of mechanical ventilation

    Measured: from the day of randomization, every day of mechanical ventilation until death or liberation from mechanical ventilation up to day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing upright bed in people with ARDS, Human, run by Peter Morris at 1 site in United States.

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 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 12 Apr 2022. 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 United States. 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?

highest value per day of mechanical ventilation of total respiratory system compliance (time frame: from the day of randomization, every day of mechanical ventilation until death or liberation from mechanical ventilation up to day 28). 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 12 Apr 2022.
