About this study

Official title: Original Protocol of Oral Cavity Care During Long-term Mechanical Ventilation : Microbiological and Clinical Effects

This is a prospective open label randomized controlled trial of the efficacy of original oral care protocol for prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis (VAT)in adult patients mechanically ventilated for at least 3 days

Read the detailed description

The study aims to clarify the effect of of the original method of oral cavity care in adult patients of intensive care units on long-term mechanical ventilation due to the assessment of the microbiological landscape of the oral cavity, oral plaque, upper and lower respiratory tract, the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis (VAT) , depending on the traditional or original protocol of the oral cavity care. Ventilator associated pneumonia is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.Inadequate oral hygiene in intensive care units (ICUs) has been recognized as a critical issue, for it is an important risk factor for ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). VAP is an aspiration pneumonia that occurs in mechanically ventilated patients, mostly caused by bacteria colonizing the oral cavity and dental plaque. It has been suggested that improvement of oral hygiene in ICU patients could lead to a reduced incidence of VAP. Although diverse oral care measures for ICU patients have been proposed in the literature, there is no evidence that could identify the most efficient ones. Although there are several evidence-based protocols, oral care measures are still performed inconsistently and differ greatly between individual ICUs.The influence of tooth brushing to maintain good oral health in the general population has long been standard practice. However the effect of brushing in the mechanically ventilated and intubated critically ill patients to dislodge organisms from dental plaque remains largely unclear

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oral care in people with Adult Patients of Intensive Care Units on Long-term Lung Mechanical Ventilation, run by Federal State Budgetary Institution, V. A. Almazov Federal North-West Medical Research Centre, of the Ministry of Health at 1 site in Russia.

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 3 inclusion and 11 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 7 Dec 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 Russia. 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?

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?

Microbial growtn (time frame: 14 days). 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 7 Dec 2021.
