Trial summary

Infants will be monitored by TcCO2 during three consecutive time periods of one hour each on a high and low rate of NIPPV, when in a stable condition. NIPPV rate will start high/low, changed to low/high and switched back to starting rate. Read more about this study

About this study

Infants will be monitored by TcCO2 during three consecutive time periods of one hour each on a high and low rate of NIPPV, when in a stable condition. NIPPV rate will start high/low, changed to low/high and switched back to starting rate.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective, crossover observational study that will be performed at Rambam NICU.

Infants will be monitored by TcCO2 during three consecutive time periods of one hour each on a high and low rate of NIPPV, when in a stable condition.

NIPPV rate will start high/low, changed to low/high and switched back to starting rate.

Being tested
nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV).
Medical subject headings
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

What participants receive

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

  • nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV).Device

    NIPPV will be administered using Leoni (Heinen\&Löwenstein, Bad Ems, Germany) and RAM cannula (Neotech, Valencia, CA).

    After initial setting and before routine blood gas testing, tcCO2 will be connected and calibrated. We will use SenTec digital monitor (SenTec AG, Therwil, Switzerland). Correlation/agreement between the tcCO2 and PCO2 will be assessed and documented in each infant.

    For Each infant we will get 2 set of data: Change in measurements when changing from 30 bpm to 10 bpm, and change in measurements when changing from 10 bpm to 30 bpm At the end of each hour, before rate change, we will document the following measurements:TcCO2, FiO2, saturation, the infant's respiratory rate (as measured in the monitor), number of apneas, bradycardia (heart rate<100 bpm), saturation<90% and>94% episodes (as measured in the monitor), 1-hour saturation histogram clasification.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). in people with Ventilator Lung; Newborn, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 1 site in Israel.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 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 Israel. 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?

Trans cutaneous CO2 (TCCO2) (time frame: During the 3 hours of the study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04836689, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Sep 2022.
