About this study

HAI (Hospital-acquired infection) is very common in ICU,and lack of understanding of environmental exposure omics and environment-host microbial interactions restricts the prevention and control of HAI. In this project, the investigators try to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and evolution of microorganisms and their functions in the ICU environment through metagenome.

Read the detailed description

This observational study aims to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and evolution of microorganisms and their functions in the ICU environment. The investigators will conduct weekly air microbiome sampling and microbiome sampling at 5 high-frequency contact points in different types of ICU units in three hospitals for one consecutive year, and collect dynamic pharyngeal swabs from ICU ward health care workers and dynamic clinical specimens (endotracheal aspiration, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid) from patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia in ICU ward. With DNA high-throughput sequencing technology, the investigators will analyze the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and evolution of microorganisms and their functions in the ICU environment, and provide support for HAI prevention.

What participants receive

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

  • Expectoration careProcedure or surgery

    Also called Bronchoscope, Oropharyngeal swabs

    1. Endotracheal aspiration: from discarded samples after expectoration care
    2. BALF (bronchoalveolar lavage fluid): if patients with fiber bronchoscope examination, take the rest of the BALF after examination
    3. Oropharyngeal swabs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hospital Acquired Infection and Ventilator-associated Pneumonia, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 22 Jun 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 China. 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?

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?

Community of microbiome in ICU (time frame: 1 year). 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 22 Jun 2023.
