Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) non synchronized is better than continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP)in preventing extubation failure within 72 h, after extubation of very low birth weight infants at the NEOCOSUR Network.

About this study

Official title: Nasal Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation Versus Continuous Positive Airway Pressure After Extubation of Very Low Birth Weight Infants of the NEOCOSUR Network.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) non synchronized is better than continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP)in preventing extubation failure within 72 h, after extubation of very low birth weight infants at the NEOCOSUR Network.

Read the detailed description

Is a Randomized trial to preterms infants <1500g and less than 34 weeks with RDS requiring machanical ventilation in the extubation period, randomized to receive NIPPV or NCPAP once extubation criteria were met. Parental written informed consent is required previous extubation. The failure rate is defined as the need for re-intubation and mechanical ventilation).

Exclusion criteria are: major congenital anomalies; presence of cardiovascular instability;intubation less than 2 hours; mechanical ventilation more than 14 days, using muscle relaxant, airway anomalies, consent not provided or refused.

Outcome measures:

The primary outcome was to assess the need for re-intubation within the first 72 hours after extubation in the 2 groups.

The criteria for failure were met by at least 1 of the following:

pH < 7.25 and PaCO2 > 65 mmHg; recurrent apnea more than 2 episodes per hour associated with bradycardia; during 4 hour continuous; 2 episodes of apnea that required bagand-mask ventilation in any time during the study; or a PaO2 < 50 mm Hg with a fraction of inspired oxygen > 0.6. The secondary outcomes concerning respiratory support were total duration on ETT ventilation, total duration on NCPAP, total duration on supplemental oxygen, incidence of pneumothorax,BPD and dead. Other outcomes included incidence of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), necrotizing enterocolitis, intraventricular hemorrhage grades 3 and 4, retinopathy of prematurity stage 3, time to full feeds, and length of hospital stay.

Sample size calculations for the primary outcome: We estimated that there would be a more than 80% chance of detecting 43% difference between the groups (alpha 0.05) when samplesize (n) is 110 patients for each mode of treatment.

Being tested
CPAP ventilation mode, NIPPV ventilation mode

What participants receive

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

  • CPAP ventilation modeProcedure or surgery

    Patients are ventilated through a nasal prong coneected to a ventilator that provides a continuous positive airway pressure

  • NIPPV ventilation modeProcedure or surgery

    Patients are ventilated through a nasal prong connected to a ventilator that provides a non synchronized intermittent positive pressure ventilation

What is being measured

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

  1. Extubation failure

    The criteria for failure were met by at least 1 of the following:

    pH less than 7.25 and PaCO2 over 65 mmHg; recurrent apnea more than 2 episodes per hour associated with bradycardia; during 4 hour continuous; 2 episodes of apnea that required bagand-mask ventilation in any time during the study; or a PaO2 less than 50 mm Hg with a fraction of inspired oxygen over 0.6.

    Measured: apnea rate and respiratory failure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CPAP ventilation mode and NIPPV ventilation mode in people with Neonatal Respiratory Failure, run by Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile at 1 site in Chile.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2013. 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 Chile. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Alberto Estay, MD (56223546437, albertoestay@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Extubation failure (time frame: apnea rate and respiratory failure.). 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 NCT01778829, 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 29 Jan 2013.
