About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Nasal Problems in Neonates and Infants Subjected to CPAP in Sohag University Hospitals

The goal of this study is to Detect and Screen different nasal complications of using CPAP in neonates and infants and reach a consensus about minimizing nasal problems of CPAP in neonates and infants

Read the detailed description

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a means of providing respiratory support to neonates with either upper airway obstruction or respiratory failure. Respiratory failure constitutes either failure of ventilation or failure of lung function.

Nasal CPAP can be delivered through various devices, of which a nasal mask and binasal prongs are the most commonly used. However, earlier studies have described the development of Pressure Injuries (PI) on the nasal skin caused by these nCPAP devices

Nasal complications of nasal CPAP vary from external nasal complications such as columellar hyperemia, columellar necrosis to intranasal complications such as intranasal ulceration, granulation, vestibular stenosis and intranasal synechiae

Aims of the Study:

  • Detection and Screening of different nasal complications of using CPAP in neonates and infants
  • reach a consensus about minimizing nasal problems of CPAP in neonates and infants

Patients and Methods:

  • Type of the study: prospective study.
  • Place of the study:
  • Pediatric department and its units (Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), Pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), Critical care unit)
  • Otorhinolaryngology department In Sohag university hospitals (old and new)
  • Study period: One year from date of acceptance of the protocol.
  • Patient:

Neonates and infants subjected to CPAP and presented to ENT department for assessment of nasal condition

  • Methods:

All cases will be subjected to:

  1. Full medical history: Name, age, sex, date of birth
  2. Indications and duration of CPAP
  3. Complete Ear,nose and throat (ENT) examination including endoscopic examination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, run by Sohag 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 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 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.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ahmed Abdelaal (+201064286563, ahmedkr80@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detection of different nasal complications of using CPAP in neonates and infants (time frame: 1 week following using CPAP in neonates and infants). 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 16 Aug 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
