About this study

Official title: Non-invasive Ventilation Prevents Post-operative Respiratory Failure in Patient Undergoing Bariatric Surgery

Postoperative non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been proposed as an attractive strategy to reduce morbidity and improve postoperative outcomes in obese subjects undergoing general anesthesia. Bariatric patients present a peculiar negative feature; the increased body mass index (BMI) correlates with loss of perioperative functional residual capacity (FRC), expiratory reserve volume (ERV) and total lung capacity (TLC), decreased up to 50% of preoperative values. The aim of the current randomized trial is to evaluate the efficacy of NIV in post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) in reducing post-extubation acute respiratory failure and the consequent admission in intensive care units (ICU) after BIBP in obese adult patients.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Non invasive ventilation (NIV)Device

    Patients allocated in NIV Group fulfilled a 120-minute cycle of PSV + PEEP with full-face mask. Ventilation was performed with a Draeger Ventilator with the following basic settings: DeltaPInsp 10 mmHg + PEEP 5 mmHg + Fio2 60%.

  • Conventional Venturi MaskDevice

    Patients were offered VenturiMask with Fio2 60% at 15 l / m.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intensive care unit admission rate

    The primary outcome was the evaluation of the ICU admission rate after NIV in postoperative management of obese patients

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Blood oxygen saturation (SaPo2)

    the evaluation of the oximetry values of obese patients after postoperative NIV adoption

    Measured: 12 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non invasive ventilation (NIV) and Conventional Venturi Mask in people with Obesity and Postoperative Respiratory Distress, run by University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli at 1 site in Italy.

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 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 23 Jun 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 Italy. 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?

Intensive care unit admission rate (time frame: 72 hours). 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 Jun 2022.
