About this study

Official title: Rapid Shallow Index as Successfully Predictor of Outcome of Extubating

Early extubation in ICU patients is crucial for reducing complications of prolonged ventilation, including morbidity and mortality. The Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI) is a widely used predictor for weaning patients from mechanical ventilation. This study aims to determine the predictive value of RSBI measurements for extubation success in mechanically ventilated ICU patients

Read the detailed description

The extubation decision is a combined clinical judgment based on a passing Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) and a Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI) value ≤ 105 breaths/min/L.combination of criteria (SBT + RSBI threshold) This approach is recommended to improve predictive accuracy, as neither SBT nor RSBI alone is perfectly reliable.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ventilated Patient in Intensive Care and Failure of Extubation, run by Ain Shams 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 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Oct 2026. 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?

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?

Extubation success (no reintubation/adjuvant support within 48h). (time frame: 48 hour). 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 28 Oct 2026.
