Trial summary

Mechanical ventilation is a cornerstone in the management of severe forms of pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome. It provides essential oxygen to patients, ventilates the lungs but also has deleterious effects like any treatment, in particular by reducing cardiac output by reducing venous return.

About this study

Mechanical ventilation is a cornerstone in the management of severe forms of pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome. It provides essential oxygen to patients, ventilates the lungs but also has deleterious effects like any treatment, in particular by reducing cardiac output by reducing venous return. Mechanical ventilation also has effects on the diaphragm: diaphragmatic dysfunction. It is explained by a prolonged inactivity of this muscle with a reduction of muscle fibers that can settle down quickly, after only a few days of mechanical ventilation. This dysfunction results in a reduction in the latter's ability to generate intrathoracic pressure necessary for ventilation, slows the withdrawal of mechanical ventilation and lengthens the duration of stay in intensive care unit. To reduce this dysfunction, phrenic stimulation has been proposed as an alternative to remuscler the diaphragm thanks to electrodes located on a central venous catheter, also used to deliver the usual therapies in intensive care unit.

The HEMOSTIM study is interested in the effects of phrenic stimulation on regional ventilation, cardiac output and cerebral perfusion: investigator hypothesize that diaphragmatic stimulation allows an improvement of these parameters.

What is being measured

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

  1. measurement of integral time speed by cardiac transthoracic ultrasound

    to assess the effects of phrenic stimulation on cardiac output

    Measured: 1 minute

  2. Measurement of increased venous return gradient in percentage (variation between the value before phrenic stimulation and the value after phrenic stimulation)

    To specify the mechanisms of the effect of phrenic stimulation on cardiac output

    Measured: 1 minute

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. variation in ventilation distribution before and after phrenic stimulation measured in electrical impedance tomography

    To assess the effects of diaphragmatic stimulation on ventilation and pulmonary recruitment measured in electrical impedance tomography

    Measured: 1 minute

  2. Measurement of diaphragmatic stimulation on cerebral oxygenation evaluated by the Near infrared spectrometry technique

    Measured: 1 minute

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing phrenic stimulation in people with Mechanical Ventilation, run by University Hospital, Angers at 3 sites 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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marie LEMERLE (0241353637, marie.lemerle@chu-angers.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

measurement of integral time speed by cardiac transthoracic ultrasound (time frame: 1 minute). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Dec 2020.
