About this study

Official title: Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation and Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Ventilation in Transient Respiratory Distress of the Newborn: A Randomized Controlled Trial

During caesarean section, transient respiratory distress which occurs frequently (3%) with possible complications are at present managed by non invasive nasal continuous positive airway pressure ventilation (nCPAP) associated with oxygen therapy. Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) is a non-invasive ventilatory mode used in some intensive care units to treat some respiratory distress syndrome of the newborn with a good tolerance, but without evaluation in prospective studies

Read the detailed description
  • Principal Objective: To show that IPV ventilation can decrease the duration of transient respiratory distress as well as the risk of complications.
  • Secondary Objective: Comparison between the two groups regarding: Length of oxygen therapy, complications (pneumothorax, pulmonary infections), need for intensive care hospitalization
  • Study design: Open, prospective randomized trial.
  • Inclusion criteria: Neonates with gestational age ≥ 35 weeks and weight ≥ 2000g, caesarean section, respiratory distress syndrome (modified Silverman score > 5, SpO2 < 90%), management within 20 minutes after birth.
  • Exclusion criteria: clinical thoracic retraction, congenital lung malformation, meconium aspiration, neonatal infection, other congenital malformations.
  • Study plan: After the screening evaluation and written consent document, neonates will be randomized into two groups: nCPAP ventilation or IPV. During the 6 hours after randomization, clinical data will be monitored: cardiac and respiratory frequency (CF -RF), saturation (SaO2), oxygenotherapy, Silverman Score. Then, neonates will be supervised 3 days after normalization of the respiratory distress.
  • Number of subjects: 100 (50 in each group)
Being tested
Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure ventilation, Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in time (min) required to normalize the respiratory distress (modified Silverman score = 0, no need for oxygen, RF < 50 bpm and SaO2 > 92%) between the two ventilatory modes

    Measured: Within the first 6 hours after birth

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of pneumothorax, lung infections, transfer to intensive care service, time of oxygenotherapy

    Measured: Within the first 72 hours after birth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure ventilation and Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation in people with Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Newborn, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux at 1 site in France.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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 13 May 2010. 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?

Difference in time (min) required to normalize the respiratory distress (modified Silverman score = 0, no need for oxygen, RF < 50 bpm and SaO2 > 92%) between the two ventilatory modes (time frame: Within the first 6 hours after birth). 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 NCT00556738, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 May 2010.
