About this study

Official title: Factors Associated With Success of Non-invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Retrospective Cohort Study

This is a retrospective cohort study to assess the factor associated with success of non-invasive positive ventilation in ALS patients.

Read the detailed description

Patients with ALS who were admitted to a tertiary hospital for initially applying non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). The objective of this study was to investigate factors associated with optimal NIPPV initiation and adherence, and to assess the long-term effects of NIPPV adherence in ALS patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Success of NIPPV

    The success of NIPPV application was defined empirically as use of ≥ 2 hours per day and the failure as use of < 2 hours for a day or conversion to invasive positive pressure ventilation via tracheostomy or refuse to apply NIPPV during hospitalization.

    Measured: through intervention completion, with an average of 10 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Lenght of stay

    The length of stay (LOS) was defined as the interval between admission and hospital discharge, and calculated as the number of midnights between admission and discharge from the hospital.

    Measured: through intervention completion, with an average of 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ALS, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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 16 Jul 2024. 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 South Korea. 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?

Success of NIPPV (time frame: through intervention completion, with an average of 10 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 16 Jul 2024.
