About this study

Official title: University of Health Sciences Bursa Yuksek Ihtisas Education and Training Hospital

Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria: Patients aged 18-65 years who are admitted to the investigator's 3rd Stage Intensive Care Unit and are dependent on mechanical ventilation will be included. The study was planned with 80 patients. Those with known chronic illnesses such as renal insufficiency, heart failure, liver failure, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease etc.,; patients in intensive care for postoperative follow-up; patients with mechanical ventilation due to chest or abdominal trauma will be excluded from the study.

Patients who meet the study criteria will be evaluated by a physiotherapy and rehabilitation specialist and will be decided to be included in the respiratory physiotherapy program. The patients will be treated by two physiotherapists in the intensive care unit at random. One of the physiotherapists will perform classical respiratory physiotherapy with thoracic vibration and the other will only perform classical respiratory physiotherapy.

Patients' acute physiology and chronic health assessment II (APACHE II) scores, partial oxygen pressure(PaO2) /fraction of inspired oxygen inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2), tidal volume, minute respiratory rate, peak air pressure, mean air pressure, blood lactate levels will be recorded daily. These values will be collected in the daily routine of the illness depending on the mechanical ventilation, by recording the already performed operations to follow the patient's clinic. If the duration of the total mechanical ventilation and complications occur, the type and timing of the complications will be examined.

At the end of the study, both physiotherapy methods, APACHE II scores, PaO2 / FiO2 values, tidal volume required, minute respiratory rate, peak air pressure, mean air pressure, blood lactate levels, mechanical ventilation duration and complications will be compared statistically.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing classical respiratory physiotherapy with thoracic vibration in people with Pulmonary Medicine and Ventilators, Mechanical, run by Bursa Yuksek Ihtisas Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 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 1 Feb 2021. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Duration of patient waking from the mechanical ventilator (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 7 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 1 Feb 2021.
