About this study

Official title: Swallowing and Nutritional Therapy and Its Impact on Body Composition and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Post-extubation Dysphagia

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the prescription of two doses of protein on the amount in kilograms of muscle mass and on the clinical evolution (time until safe swallowing, time until removal of the feeding stoma, number of hospital readmissions, feeding stoma infections, incidence of pneumonia, functionality, number of falls, fractures and mortality) at 6 months after hospital discharge in patients with enteral nutrition due to post-extubation dysphagia.

What participants receive

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

  • High protein doseOther

    High dose of protein (2.0 g/kg) will prescribed for home enteral nutrition

  • Usual protein doseOther

    Usual dose of protein (1.5 g/kg) will prescribed for home enteral nutrition

Study groups in NCT06511284
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
High protein groupExperimental100% of the energy requirements measured by indirect calorimetry (IC) or estimated, and a protein intake of 2.0 g/kg, will be prescribed
Receives: Other: High protein dose
Usual protein groupOther100% of the energy requirements measured by IC or estimated, and a protein intake of 1.5 g/kg, will be prescribed.
Receives: Other: Usual protein dose

What is being measured

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

  1. Muscle mass changes

    Changes of muscle mass in kilograms measured by impedance bioelectric

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Swallow recovery

    Time to safe swallowing diagnosed by fibroendoscopy evaluation of swallowing (FEES) and measured in months

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  2. Duration of enteral nutrition indication

    Time from discharge to feeding tube removal

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  3. Feeding tube complications

    Number of feeding tube infections, dysfunctions and oclusions during study period

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  4. Muscle functionality changes

    Changes in functionality measured by medical research council scale in a scale of 0-60 points

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  5. Handgrip strenght changes

    Changes in functionality assessed by handgrip strenght in kilogramos using a digital dynamometer

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  6. Frailty complications

    Number of falls and fractures during study period

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  7. Hospital readmissions associated to dysphagia complications

    Number of hospital readmissions assocciated to feeding tube infections, dysfunctions and oclusions during study period

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  8. 6-month mortality

    All-cause mortality during study period

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

  9. Aspiration pneumonia incidence

    Number of hospital readmissions due to aspiration pneumonia

    Measured: From randomization to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High protein dose and Usual protein dose in people with Dysphagia, run by National Institute of Respiratory Diseases, Mexico at 1 site in Mexico.

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 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 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 Mexico. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ivan A Osuna-Padilla, PhD (+5216671035806, ivan.osuna@iner.gob.mx), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Muscle mass changes (time frame: From randomization to 6 months). 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 Jul 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
