Trial summary

The population included in this study consists of tracheostomy patients admitted to the pulmonary department of Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital, undergoing decannulation rehabilitation treatment. After the patient is admitted, the research team evaluates whether they are suitable to enter the decannulation process. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Collect Physiological Data of Patients Before and After Tracheostomy Tube Removal Using Wearable Devices to Quantify Physiological Benefits of Decannulation

The population included in this study consists of tracheostomy patients admitted to the pulmonary department of Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital, undergoing decannulation rehabilitation treatment. After the patient is admitted, the research team evaluates whether they are suitable to enter the decannulation process. For enrolled patients, a 24-hour wearable device is worn upon admission to record physiological parameters.

Patients, following clinical and rehabilitation treatment, can start using a "speaking valve" as soon as their condition permits. Within the first 24 hours prior to the initial use of the speaking valve, wearable devices may be utilized a second time to gather data.

Patients successfully completed the decannulation process, tolerating the speaking valve for 4 hours (PEF/PCF ≥ 100liters/min).The wearable device was utilized to gather 24 hours physiological parameters for the third time within the 24 hours leading up to decannulation.

Patients who underwent successful decannulation had physiological parameters collected for the forth time using wearable devices within 24 hours prior to discharge.

This study preliminarily compares the differences in physiological parameters at four time points (within 24 hours of admission, within 24 hours prior to using a speaking valve, within 24 hours prior to decannulation and within 24 hours before discharge), predicts the physiological benefits of decannulation for patients, and advocates for the concept of "early decannulation." Decannulation criteria: If the patient can tolerate wearing the speaking valve continuously for 4 hours (gradually increasing the duration: 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours), and if PEF/PCF ≥ 100 liters/min, planned removal of the tracheostomy tube can be considered.

Criteria for successful decannulation: Patients who successfully completed the decannulation process and had their tubes removed, with no reinsertion of the tracheostomy tube or endotracheal intubation within 48 hours after decannulation.

What participants receive

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

  • Successful decannulation groupOther

    Patients who successfully completed the decannulation process and had their tubes removed, with no reinsertion of the tracheostomy tube or endotracheal intubation within 48 hours after decannulbation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Physiological Benefits From the Removal of Tracheostomy Tubes (Obtained Via Wearable Devices)

    All patients enrolled in this study had their tracheostomy cannula successfully removed during hospitalization, and no tracheostomy cannula or orotracheal intubation was reinserted within 48 hours following decannulation.Primary Objectives: The clinical benefits of decannulation were further validated by observing the changes in patients' physiological parameters before and after the procedure.In clinical practice, we actively advocate for decannulation management through "early assessment, prompt decannulation, early advantage" to minimize unnecessary indwelling.

    Measured: within 24 hours of admission, within 24 hours prior to using a speaking valve, within 24 hours prior to decannulation and within 24 hours before discharge.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Physiological Parameters and Wearable Devices, run by Bin Zhang.

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 11 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Bin Zhang (+8618600530758, zbzgzjz@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Physiological Benefits From the Removal of Tracheostomy Tubes (Obtained Via Wearable Devices) (time frame: within 24 hours of admission, within 24 hours prior to using a speaking valve, within 24 hours prior to decannulation and within 24 hours before discharge.). 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 3 Jun 2026.
