About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Tracheal Pressure During Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Ventilation - a Prospective, Clinical Trial

This trial evaluates tracheal pressure values in intubated intensive care unit patients during continuous positive airway pressure without any ventilatory support, automatic tube compensation and assisted spontaneous breathing.

Read the detailed description

Aim of this trial is to investigate if there are any significant differences between airway and tracheal pressure values during continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilation. For this purpose, a tracheal pressure measurement catheter is inserted into the tracheal tube and the obtained values are compared with the corresponding airway pressure measured on the ventilator. To further evaluate the impact of mild respiratory support automatic tube compensation and assisted spontaneous breathing with 4 cmH2O will be applied and measured pressure values compared as well.

We hypothesize that tracheal pressure will be significantly lower than airway pressure values during inspiration, which represents the primary outcome measure. Secondary outcome parameters include comparison of expiratory and mean pressure values of airway and tracheal pressure. Additionally, effects of mild respiratory support will be evaluated as well.

Measurement of inspiratory tracheal pressure might allow to calculate the pressure drop between the airway pressure at the Y-piece of the ventilator and the pressure at the trachea. Currently it is not known, if this pressure drop is significant during CPAP, which represents the rationale to perform this pilot study. In a second step it would be possible to determine if the recorded pressure drop can be used as a surrogate parameter for the respiratory drive in terms of a risk assessment for the development of patient self-inflected lung injury.

What participants receive

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

  • EvoneDevice

    The conventional tube adapter (CTA) from the Evone ventilator (Ventinova Medical B.V., Eindhoven, The Netherlands), equipped with an tracheal pressure measurement catheter will be connected to the tracheal tube of intubated intensive care unit patients. Subsequently tracheal pressure values will be displayed and recorded from the ventilator.

  • Evita Infinity V500Device

    Displayed airway pressure values will be directly recorded from the Evita Infinity V500 ventilator (Dräger Medical, Lübeck, Germany)

Study groups in NCT05679635
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Study participantsOtherIn intubated patients during CPAP ventilation, a conventional tube adapter (CTA, Ventinova Medical B.V., Eindhoven, The Netherlands) will be connected to the tracheal tube for tracheal pressure measurement. Tracheal pressure measurements will be recorded directly from the respirator Evone (Ventinova Medical B.V., Eindhoven, The Netherlands) three times, as well as the corresponding airway pressure values from the Evita Infinity V500 respirator (Dräger Medical, Lübeck, Germany). Study related time points: T1: 10 minutes after insertion of the conventional tube adapter during CPAP without ventilator support T2: 10 minutes after T1 during CPAP with activated automatic tube compensation (ATC) T3: 10 minutes after T2 during CPAP with assisted spontaneous breathing (ASB) of 4 cmH2O
Receives: Device: Evone; Device: Evita Infinity V500

What is being measured

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

  1. inspiratory tracheal pressure

    The lowest tracheal pressure value, representing the highest inspiratory effort, will be recorded from the ventilator

    Measured: 10 minutes after insertion of the tracheal pressure measurement catheter

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. peak tracheal pressure

    The highest tracheal pressure value will be recorded

    Measured: 10 minutes after insertion of the tracheal pressure measurement catheter

  2. mean tracheal pressure

    The mean tracheal pressure value will be calculated

    Measured: 10 minutes after insertion of the tracheal pressure measurement catheter

  3. inspiratory tracheal pressure during automatic tube compensation (ATC)

    Effect of a mild respiratory support in terms of automatic tube compensation (ATC) on inspiratory tracheal pressure will be evaluated.

    Measured: 10 minutes after adding ATC

  4. inspiratory tracheal pressure during assisted spontaneous breathing (ASB)

    Effect of a mild respiratory support in terms of assisted spontaneous breathing (ASB) with 4 cmH2O on inspiratory tracheal pressure will be evaluated.

    Measured: 10 minutes after adding ASB

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Evone and Evita Infinity V500 in people with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and CPAP Ventilation, run by Medical University Innsbruck at 1 site in Austria.

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 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 28 May 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 Austria. 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?

inspiratory tracheal pressure (time frame: 10 minutes after insertion of the tracheal pressure measurement catheter). 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 28 May 2024.
