About this study

Official title: Incidence and Risk Factors of Prolonged Post-Operative Mechanical Ventilation in Pediatric Liver Transplant Recipients: A Retrospective Study

The primary goal of the study is to identify incidence and risk factors for PPMV in pediatric patients undergoing liver transplantation.

Read the detailed description

The vast majority of children undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) are maintained on mechanical ventilation (MV) in the immediate postoperative period. Reasons for this practice include concerns about graft function, postoperative respiratory depression from opioids, preexisting malnutrition, and organ-recipient size mismatch as well as poor cooperation of young children with postoperative instructions. With current improvements in the perioperative care, there is increasing drive towards early extubation in both adults and children.

Although many children require only a few days of MV following OLT, some require a more prolonged course. In general, prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation (PPMV) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients is marker of severe adverse events and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality as well as extraordinary resource utilization. Patients requiring PPMV have survived the acute phase of surgery but spend an increased amount of time in the ICU, consume about 50% of all intensive care unit (ICU) resources and are more likely to die. Consequently, investigating the incidence and factors predisposing to PPMV following liver transplant is an important area of research with potential to reduce cost of care and improve long-term outcome of patients.

To our knowledge, factors associated with PPMV following pediatric liver transplantation have not been comprehensively characterized.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with post-operative mechanical ventilation

    To identify risk factors for prolonged post-operative mechanical ventilation (PPMV) in pediatric patients undergoing liver transplantation.

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Incidence of PPMV

    To identify risk INCIDENCE for prolonged post-operative mechanical ventilation (PPMV) in pediatric patients undergoing liver transplantation.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. total duration of icu stay and length of stay in hospital.

    To identify effect of prolonged post-operative mechanical ventilation (PPMV) on total duration of icu stay and length of stay in hospital.

    Measured: From the day of admission to discharge or death, whichever comes first,upto 12 weeks

  3. incidence of tracheostomy/re-intubation

    To identify incidence of tracheostomy/re-intubation of prolonged post-operative mechanical ventilation (PPMV).

    Measured: 28 days post-op

  4. incidence of 28 day mortality

    To identify incidence of 28 day mortality prolonged post-operative mechanical ventilation (PPMV) group.

    Measured: 28 days post-op

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pediatric Liver Transplantation, run by Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India at 1 site in India.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 24 Apr 2023. 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 India. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with post-operative mechanical ventilation (time frame: 24 hours). 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 24 Apr 2023.
