Trial summary

The investigators hypothesized that increasing non intentional leaks could increase work of breathing and could lead to patient/non-invasive ventilation (NIV) asynchrony. The main objective is to compare ventilatory pattern (work of breathing, flow, pressure) under NIV with and without non-intentional leaks in 10… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Impact of Non-intentional Leaks on Breathing Pattern and Work of Breathing During Non-invasive Ventilation: Study in Awakened Healthy Subjects and Awakened Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome(OHS)Patients and During the Sleep in OHS Patients.

The investigators hypothesized that increasing non intentional leaks could increase work of breathing and could lead to patient/non-invasive ventilation (NIV) asynchrony.

The main objective is to compare ventilatory pattern (work of breathing, flow, pressure) under NIV with and without non-intentional leaks in 10 awakened healthy subjects and 10 awakened and asleep obese hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) patients.

Methods: While the subjects will be under NIV, several levels of leaks will be simulated in a random order with an automatically opening valve. Breathing pattern (work of breathing,flow, pressure, thorax and abdominal movements) will be recorded by Polygraphy. Healthy subjects will be recorded only during awakened state. OHS patients will be recorded both during awake and sleep sates.

Analysis: A repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) will compare work of breathing according to the different levels of leaks.

What participants receive

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

  • Non intentional leaks during non invasive ventilationOther

    During NIV sessions (in awake state for both the 10 healthy and the 10 OHS subjects and during sleep only for the OHS subjects), the investigators will create several levels of non intentional leaks in a random order

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthy and OHS subjects10 healthy subjects: 20 to 60 years old 10 patients with Obesity hypoventilation syndrome: 20 to 70 years old treated with nocturnal non invasive ventilation for at least three months.
Receives: Other: Non intentional leaks during non invasive ventilation

What is being measured

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

  1. Main outcome measure:Work of breathing assessed by measurement of oesophageal pressure according to the levels of non intentional leaks during non invasive ventilation

    Measured: Oesophageal pressure will be assessed during all the duration of the study (2hours for the healthy subjects, overnight for the OHS patients)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary outcome measure: Assessments of the pulse transit time (PTT) and measurement of the oral opening (JAWSENS-NOMICS)according to the levels of non intentional leaks during non invasive ventilation

    Measured: PTT and oral opening will be assessed during all the duration of the study (2hours for the healthy subjects, overnight for the OHS patients)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intermittent Positive-pressure Ventilation and Respiratory Physiological Phenomena, run by AGIR à Dom 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 1 Feb 2017. 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?

Main outcome measure:Work of breathing assessed by measurement of oesophageal pressure according to the levels of non intentional leaks during non invasive ventilation (time frame: Oesophageal pressure will be assessed during all the duration of the study (2hours for the healthy subjects, overnight for the OHS patients)). 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 NCT00983411, 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 1 Feb 2017.
