Trial summary

Endotracheal aspiration is a necessary procedure performed by nurses in neonatal intensive care units to increase oxygenation and remove secretions from the airways. It is one of the painful procedures that most frequently causes stress in intubated newborns. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Open and Closed Suction Systems on Newborn's Pain and Vital Signs in Neonatal Intensive Care

Endotracheal aspiration is a necessary procedure performed by nurses in neonatal intensive care units to increase oxygenation and remove secretions from the airways. It is one of the painful procedures that most frequently causes stress in intubated newborns.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of open and closed system suction, which is one of the invasive procedures frequently applied in neonatal intensive care, on the baby's pain and vital signs. There is a need for innovative, evidence-based practices to be implemented by nurses in clinics to minimize complications related to endotracheal suction.

What participants receive

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

  • SuctionOther

    Also called open suction, closed suction

    Each patient will be evaluated as both the experimental and control group. In the study, open suction applied to the patient will be evaluated as control, and closed suction will be considered as the experimental group. The first suction of the same patient during the day will be done as open suction, and the second suction will be done as closed suction.

Study groups in NCT06435572
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Experimental and A control groupExperimentalEach patient will be evaluated as both the experimental and control group. In line with the patient's aspiration needs, two different suction methods will be applied and the effects of the methods will be evaluated on the same patient. In the study, open suction applied to the patient will be considered as the control group, and closed suction will be considered as the experimental group. The first suction of the same patient during the day will be performed as open suction, and the second suction will be performed as closed suction. Pain and physiological parameters will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each sucking session.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain score

    differences in pain between open and closed suctioning systems

    Measured: Pain will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each suction procedure.

  2. Oxygen saturation

    differences in oxygen saturation between open and closed suctioning systems

    Measured: Oxygen saturation will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each suction procedure

  3. Heart rate

    differences in heart rate between open and closed suctioning systems

    Measured: Heart rate will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each aspiration procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Suction in people with Newborn, run by Izmir Katip Celebi University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 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 30 May 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Contact ASLI ALACA, MSc (05062741676, alaca_asli_1992@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain score (time frame: Pain will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each suction procedure.). The study lists 3 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 30 May 2024.
