About this study

This study aims to evaluate the effect of implementing evidence based practices on prevention of associated nasal pressure injuries among preterm neonates with non invasive respiratory support

Read the detailed description

The researchers explained the study's aim, benefits, and procedures for participation, after that the parents of the neonates provided an informed consent. Over a one-week period, staff education programs regarding Evidence-Based Guidelines for non-invasive respiratory support will be conducted for NICU nursing staff. These sessions, lasting 15 to 20 minutes, will be held during regularly scheduled work hours, with four different sessions will offer throughout the day. The preterm neonates' characteristics and clinical data will be extracted from their hospital records for the two groups on the first day of admission for both groups prior to intervention to identify those who fulfilled the current study's inclusion criteria. Neonatal baseline data was collected from their records on the first day of admission for the two groups prior to intervention in order to identify neonates who meet the required criteria of the study. Then the participants were selected and divided randomly (using a simple random method) into two equal groups. One subject for the control group, one for the study group and so on, distributed the participants into two equivalent groups as fellow:

Control Group: Consisted of 30 premature neonates who will receive conventional hospital care with no additional interventions.

Study Group: Consisted of 30 premature neonates who will receive 6 evidence-based practices on the prevention of nasal pressure injuries as follows:

  • Use an appropriately sized nasal interface device.
  • The Use of Skin Barrier Products between nasal skin and nasal interface device
  • Visually examining the preterm newborn every hour to ensure appropriate nasal interface position
  • Once every 12-hour shift, the protective barrier and nasal device are briefly removed to allow for a full nasal skin examination
  • Follow developmental care principles by repositioning the infant every three to four hours.
  • Pain scores should be taken at least every three to four hours.

What participants receive

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

  • Non Invasive Respiratory Support bundleProcedure or surgery

    premature neonates who will receive evidence-based guidelines for prevention of nasal pressure injuries associated with non invasive respiratory support till weaning

Study groups in NCT06642285
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control GroupNo intervention: it will include thirty premature neonates who will receive the usual hospital care in accordance with hospital protocols, without any extra procedures or therapies.
Bundle groupExperimental: it will include thirty premature neonates who will receive evidence-based guidelines on the prevention of nasal pressure injuries in form of a care bundle from the first day of providing NIRS till weaning.
Receives: Procedure: Non Invasive Respiratory Support bundle

What is being measured

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

  1. change from the baseline nasal skin integrity on Nasal injury classification tool

    : it is adopted from (Fischer et al., 2010) based on the standardized classification of the decubitus lesions from the US National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) (Black et al., 2007; The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, 1989). This tool will be employed to describe and track the progression and severity of nasal injuries caused by NIRS in neonates by assessing nasal region (the nasal tip, nasal septum, nostril, and nose shape change) for erythema, ulceration, and necrosis, in order to ensure proper and early treatment

    Measured: Researchers will assess the nasal skin of preterm infants every 3-6 hours from the first day of providing NIRS till 14 days to determine the nasal damage score in both groups.

  2. change from the baseline pain score on Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP)

    It will be adopted from (Stevens et al., 1996). The Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP) is a biobehavioral observational technique used to quantify acute and procedure pain in premature infants. It assesses seven indicators: gestational age, behavioral state, increased heart rate, decreased oxygen saturation, forehead bulging, eye squeezing, and nasolabial furrows. Each indicator is scored on a four-point Likert scale, from 0 to 3. The total PIPP score, which is the sum of points for all seven indications, varies between 0 to 21. Higher scores imply more painful conduct. A number of 0-6 indicates no pain, 7-12 indicates mild to moderate pain, and a score more than 12 indicates severe pain.

    Measured: - Researchers will evaluate pain scores for preterm infants in both groups every 3-4 hours from the first day of providing NIRS till 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non Invasive Respiratory Support bundle in people with Mechanical Ventilation Complication and Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature Infant, run by Kafrelsheikh 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 15 Oct 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Eman W abdelaal, Ass. Professor (01065407334, eman_wardany_2014@nur.kfs.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change from the baseline nasal skin integrity on Nasal injury classification tool (time frame: Researchers will assess the nasal skin of preterm infants every 3-6 hours from the first day of providing NIRS till 14 days to determine the nasal damage score in both groups.). The study lists 2 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 15 Oct 2024.
