About this study

Official title: Use of High Flow Nasal Oxygen Cannula in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Procedures. Impact on Respiratory Complications and Biomarkers

Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is a risky procedure, performed in patients that can also be considered at risk of developing complications. The use of HFNO could be justified in this context and could improve the results and safety of these procedures. The use of HFNO during sedation for TAVR could increase oxygen content and minimise hypercapnia, which occurs frequently. This may have 2 potential benefits: one in terms of facilitating the patient's tolerance to anaesthetic sedation; and the other to optimise oxygen delivery to organs such as the brain, kidneys, and myocardium.

Primary aim The number of oxygen desaturation episodes. An oxygen desaturation episode is defined as any episode of Sp02 <93% for more than 10 seconds.

Method A single-center prospective randomised controlled clinical trial with 132 individuals comparing the use of High Flow Nasal oxygen (intervention group) with the conventional standard of care oxygenation with nasal cannula standard oxygenation (control group) of patients undergoing sedation for transfemoral TAVR. The randomisation process will be carried out with a 1:1 assignment, using the RedCap Clínic tool for this purpose. Both groups will be treated at the same centre and by the same interventional cardiology and anaesthesia team. Sedation regime will be based on Target controlled infusion (TCI) with propofol and remifentanil. Local anaesthesia will be infiltrated by interventional cardiologist prior obtaining femoral vascular access. 50 L/min with 0.6% FiO2 will be administered through a high-flow nasal cannula in the intervention group. In the control group, oxygen therapy will also be administered in all cases, using the usual procedure: oxygen therapy through a conventional nasal cannula and at a flow of 5 L/min.

What is being measured

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

  1. The number of oxygen desaturation episodes

    An oxygen desaturation episode is defined as any episode of Sp02 <93% more than 10 seconds

    Measured: up to 24 hours

  2. The number of patients with at least 1 desaturation episode

    An oxygen desaturation episode is defined as any episode of Sp02 <93% more than 10 seconds

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Hypoxia

    PO2

    Measured: At placing the arterial catheter moment (baseline), and 45 minutes after the start of sedation

  2. Hipercapnia

    PaCO2

    Measured: At placing the arterial catheter moment (baseline), and 45 minutes after the start of sedation

  3. Trends in plasmatic enolase neurospecific

    Study of plasmatic biomarkers of ischaemic damage in brain with Enolase neurospecific

    Measured: the day before the procedure (baseline), 45 minutes, and 8 hours after the start of sedation.

  4. Trends in plasmatic Biomarkers of kidney injury

    Study of plasmatic biomarkers of ischaemic damage in kidney with creatinine

    Measured: the day before the procedure (baseline), 45 minutes, and 8 hours after the start of sedation.

  5. Trends in plasmatic Biomarkers of myocardial injury

    Study of plasmatic biomarkers of ischaemic damage in myocardium with troponin and pro-BNP

    Measured: the day before the procedure (baseline), 45 minutes, and 8 hours after the start of sedation.

  6. Respiratory depression

    Number of respiratory depression episodes requiring manual ventilation.

    Measured: During the TAVI procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High flow nasal oxygen in people with Aortic Stenosis and Sedation Complication, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 1 site in Spain.

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 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 19 Dec 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 Spain. 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?

The number of oxygen desaturation episodes (time frame: up to 24 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Dec 2024.
