Trial summary

Prone position ventilation was used 220 times in 44 out of 68 patients with severe COVID-19 induced ARDS treated with VV-ECMO. PPV treated patients did not benefit from PPV and the incidence of PPV related adverse events was high Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Use of Prone Position Ventilation (PPV) in Danish Patients With COVID-19 Induced Severe Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Treated With Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV-ECMO)

Prone position ventilation was used 220 times in 44 out of 68 patients with severe COVID-19 induced ARDS treated with VV-ECMO. PPV treated patients did not benefit from PPV and the incidence of PPV related adverse events was high

Read the detailed description

Purpose: To describe the use and effects of prone position ventilation (PPV) in patients with COVID-19 induced Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), treated with Veno-Venous Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).

Methods: Nationwide retrospective analysis of all COVID-19 patients in Denmark from March 2020 - December 2021with severe ARDS and need of VV-ECMO treatment. Data on the number of patients treated with PPV, number of PPV-events, timing, the time spent in prone position, physiological response types, adverse events and outcomes are reported.

  • Prone position ventilationOther

    Turning the patient prone for 16 hours

What is being measured

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

  1. 90 day mortality

    all cause mortality 90 days after ECMO start

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time-to-wean

    Time from ECMO start to succesful weaning from ECMO

    Measured: From start of ECMO treatment to succesful weaning from ECMO

  2. Recruitment Response to prone position ventilation

    lung recruitment

    Measured: from prone position start to prone position end

  3. Oxygenation Response to prone position ventilation

    Oxygenation

    Measured: from prone position start to prone position end

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ARDS, Human and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 2 sites in Denmark.

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 0 inclusion and 1 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 29 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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?

90 day mortality (time frame: 90 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 29 Mar 2023.
