About this study

Official title: Effect of Combined Manual Hyperinflation and Standard Physical Therapy Program on Lung Recruitment in Mechanically Ventilated Pediatric Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to investigate the immediate combined effects of Manual Hyperinflation and standard Physical therapy program on lung recruitment and secretion mass in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients aged between 10-15 years 'old

Read the detailed description

In developing countries, lower respiratory tract infection is a major cause of death in children, with severely ill patients being admitted to the critical-care unit. While physical therapists commonly use the manual hyperinflation (MHI) technique for secretion mass clearance in critical-care patients, its efficacy has not been determined in pediatric patients.

Manual hyperinflation is a frequently maneuver used in critically ill intubated and mechanically ventilated patients. With MHI, patients are disconnected from the mechanical ventilator after which their lungs are temporarily ventilated with a manual ventilation bag. so, by applying a larger than normal volume at a low inspiratory pause and expiration with a high expiratory flow, MHI is suggested to mimic a normal cough.

Propagation of airway secretions from the smaller toward the larger airways, then allows for easy removed of airway secretions with the airway suction. finally, MHI could prevent airway plugging and even promote alveolar recruitment. so the aim of the study is to enhance lung recruitment using MHI combined with standard Physical therapy program

What participants receive

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

  • rehabilitation of mechanically ventilated patientsDevice

    Also called rehabilitation by using combined physical therapy and manual hyperinflation

    1. mechanical ventilation
    2. silicon resuscitation bag (500ml) connected to pressure manometer with an oxygen flow of 10 l.min-1
    3. Endotracheal closed suction with pressure control ventilation (PCV)
  • supportive careProcedure or surgery

    Also called physical therapy for pediatric respiratory disorders

    • Children in study group B will receive standard Physical therapy program including suction, percussion and vibration with total duration of session in group a will be 15 minutes, daily for successive two weeks
Study groups in NCT06349785
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
study group AExperimentalAssigned Children in the study will receive manual hyperinflation and standard physical therapy program. Manual hyperinflation (MHI): Manual hyperinflation will be performed by single physical therapist using a silicone resuscitator bag . The resuscitator bag (maximum volume of 500 mL) was connected to a pressure manometer with an oxygen flow of 10 L. min-1 with the total duration of session in group A will be 15 minutes, daily for 2 weeks
Receives: Device: rehabilitation of mechanically ventilated patients; Procedure: supportive care
study group BActive comparator- Children in study group B will receive standard Physical therapy program including suction, percussion and vibration with total duration of session in group a will be 15 minutes, daily for 2 weeks
Receives: Procedure: supportive care

What is being measured

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

  1. change the respiratory functions

    By increasing tidal volume

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. change the respiratory mechanics

    increasing inspiratory capacity

    Measured: 2 weeks

  3. change the bronchospasm

    modifying mean airway pressure

    Measured: 2 weeks

  4. change the amount of ventilation

    increasing the oxygen saturation

    Measured: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. decreasing the amount of secretions

    by monitoring the change of amount of secretions collection calibrated tube attached to a closed suction system to calculate the secretion mass before and after treatment using: Suction by Endotracheal closed suction with pressure control ventilation (PCV) will be performed. The duration of suction was 10 s with 5-s rest for each set. Three sets of suction with a closed suction system will be used for both groups of patients.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. weaning from mechanical ventilator

    by improving previously mentioned respiratory function

    Measured: from 2 to 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing rehabilitation of mechanically ventilated patients and supportive care in people with Mechanical Ventilation Complication and Physical Disability, run by New Ismailia National University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 5 Apr 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 Egypt. 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?

change the respiratory functions (time frame: 2 weeks). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06349785, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Apr 2024.
