About this study

Guillain-Barré syndrome and myasthenia gravis are two neuromuscular diseases that are commonly managed in ICUs that may require different weaning protocols. To date, no study has compared weaning modalities from mechanical ventilation in patients with these two diseases. Our objective was to assess and compare for ventilator weaning modalities between patients mechanically ventilated for Guillain-Barré syndrome or for myasthenia gravis in a large-scale multicenter study.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of patients with prolonged weaning

    Prolonged weaning defined as still being under mechanical ventilation at least 7 days after the initial separation attempt from the ventilator

    Measured: 7 days after the initial separation attempt from the ventilator

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myasthenia Gravis and Guillain-Barre Syndrome, run by Poitiers University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2025. 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 France. 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?

The proportion of patients with prolonged weaning (time frame: 7 days after the initial separation attempt from the ventilator). 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 NCT07022028, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 18 Jun 2025.
