About this study

Official title: Copmined Sono-pulmonary Score and APACHE Score as a Predictor of Outcome in Respiratory Intensive Care Unit Patients With Ventilator Associated Pneumonia

Aim of the study :

  1. Efficacy of Sono pulmonary infection score in combination with APACHE score in early diagnosis of VAP
  2. Assessment of prediction role of combined SIPS SCORE and APACHE SCORE of outcome of VAP patient in RICU
  3. Assessments of role of ultrasonography in early diagnosis and follow up of VAP
Read the detailed description

Pneumonia is a bacterial, viral or fungal infection of the lungs, which causes the alveoli of the lungs to fill up with microorganisms, fluid and inflammatory cells, preventing the lungs from functioning effectively[1]. Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common and a leading cause of death in intensive care unit patient. Ventilator associated pneumonia is caused by prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation ,and prolonged hospital stay, which increase hospital costs, possibly increase mortality rate, and increase antibiotic use in ICU patients , early identification of VAP is an important clinical goal to improve patient outcomes [2]. In recent year several scoring systems have been developed to evaluate the severity of illness and to predict the outcome, especially the mortality rate of intensive care unit patient, such as the Clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) or modified (CPIS)The Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS) was developed to serves a tool to facilitate the diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP),The CPIS is calculated on the basis of points assigned for various signs and symptoms of pneumonia (eg, fever and extent of oxygenation mpairment) ,a CPIS has an average between 0-12>6 some studies suggest that CPIS >6 may correlate with VAP Sonar is easy bedside test to diagnose pleural effusion, pneumonia pneumothorax , so recently lung ultrasonography (LUS) incorporated in evaluation and diagnosis of VAP in a new score called sono pulmonary infection score (SPIS) . The (SPIS), where is incorporated LUS finding instead of CXR finding of CPIS is assigned two points for ≥ one area of dynamic air bronchogram. One point was given for ≥ two sub-pleural consolidation or lobar consolidation areas or ≥ one sub-pleural, and ≥one lobar consolidationRecently (combination of SPIS with APACHE score in assessment of VAP is under research ).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Intensive Care Unit Patients With Ventilator Associated Pneumonia, run by Assiut University.

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 2 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 19 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Lamiaa hussein Fouda, Master (01140705774, Lamiaahussein5@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compined SONOPULMONARY infection score and APACHE score as a predictor of outcome in RICU patients with ventilator associated pneumonia (time frame: One 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 19 Oct 2023.
