About this study

Official title: Response of Respiratory and Hemodynamic Parameters to Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Titration for Mechanically Ventilated Obese Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial

In this study, the sixty mechanically ventilated class I obese patients were divided into two equal groups A and B. group A received RTP position + PEEP protocol, while group B underwent RTP position protocol only. The results showed that the group A protocol has positive effects on the improvement of respiratory mechanics by significant increase the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) in mmHg to fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2), (PaO2/FiO2 ratio), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and static compliance (Cstat) parameters. Moreover, a significant decrease in hemodynamics of BP\& MAP was measured. While the results of the group B protocol demonstrated a non-significant increase in the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, PaCO2, and Cstat. Besides, non-significant decreases in hemodynamics of blood pressure (BP) \& mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) were recorded.

Read the detailed description

Objective To investigate the effect of the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration maneuver with Reverse Trendelenburg Position (RTP) on the respiratory and hemodynamic parameters of mechanically ventilated obese patients.

Design Randomized, control trial. Participants Thirty mechanically ventilated obese patients were randomized equally as a group A to receive Reverse Trendelenburg Position (RTP) + Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) titration, and group (B): receive Reverse Trendelenburg Position (RTP).

Intervention After post-operative bariatric surgeries, the sixty mechanically ventilated obese patients immediately receive a PEEP and RTP once before the weaning through the ventilator of the operation to evaluate the response of arterial blood gases before admission to the intensive care unit ICU room.

Outcomes The primary outcomes included the respiratory parameters (PaO2/FiO2 ratio, PaCO2, Cstat), and the secondary outcomes included the hemodynamics parameters (systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP)).

What participants receive

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

  • respiratory parameters on mechanical ventilator (PEEP)Device

    The 3rd \& 4th phases of operation in the group (A) and (B): Each patient received one single session inside the Operation Room (OR) as one shot of the treatment procedure. Arterial Blood Gases (ABGs) were obtained to measure:

    1. Oxygenation by PaO2/FiO2 ratio with constant FiO2 = 100% (oxygen) through the procedure time as a primary outcome.
    2. Secondary outcome.
    • Ventilation by PaCO2 value from ABGs.
    • Static compliance (Cstat) was measured as the amount of recruitment of alveoli in the lung.
    • Blood pressure (systolic/diastolic) one of the hemodynamics measurements was measured pre/post the procedure in the two groups.
Study groups in NCT05508997
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Positive End Expiatory Pressure + Reverse Trendelenburg PositionExperimentalGroup A received the procedures of the physiotherapy part by applying proper positioning for better oxygenation and ventilation (Reverse Trendelenburg Position), which is the patient laid supine with the head up 30 degrees higher than the feet \& received the recruitment maneuver (RM) by Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) titration
Receives: Device: respiratory parameters on mechanical ventilator (PEEP)
Reverse Trendelenburg PositionActive comparatorGroup B received only the procedures of the physiotherapy part at the 3rd phase of operation by applying proper positioning for better oxygenation and ventilation (Reverse Trendelenburg Position), in which the patient laid supine with the head at 15-30 degrees higher than the feet to unload the weight of intra-abdominal contents from the diaphragm, this position: 1. Increase pulmonary compliance, functional residual capacity (FRC), and oxygenation. 2. Allows easier ventilation. 3. This position called safe apnea time allows time to secure the airway before desaturation for a 20-minute positioning time.
Receives: Device: respiratory parameters on mechanical ventilator (PEEP)

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

  1. Respiratory parameters

    The primary outcomes included the respiratory parameters partial oxygen pressure, partial carbon dioxide pressure, static compliance fractional oxygen pressure ratio

    Measured: Immediately after the procedure is done in the operating room appears on the patient's monitor & patient arterial blood gases.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Hemodynamics parameters

    The secondary outcomes included the hemodynamics parameters (SBP in mmHg, DBP in mmHg, and MAP in mmHg).

    Measured: Immediately after the procedure is done in the operating room appears on the patient's monitor.

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?

Respiratory parameters (time frame: Immediately after the procedure is done in the operating room appears on the patient's monitor & patient arterial blood gases.). 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 NCT05508997, which also lists 23 linked publications.

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.
