About this study

Official title: the Study of Using Esophageal Pressure to Guide the PEEP Setting in Abdominal Hypertension Patients Who Undergoing Mechanical Ventilation

Intra-abdominal hypertension can increase the pleural pressure, and then end-expiratory transpulmonary pressures will be turn to negative, Pulmonary atelectasis/acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome will appear. In the group of people who suffering intra-abdominal hypertension, the investigators use the pressure of esophagus to speculate the Intrathoracic pressure, and to setting PEEP in order to decrease the happening of ALI/ARDS, which may decrease morbidity in this population.

What is being measured

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

  1. ventilator-free days

    Comparison of two groups the duration of ventilation-free in 28d,ventilator-free day include weaning from mechanical ventilation more than 24h.

    Measured: 28d

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. mortality

    28-Day mortality include patients who giving up treatment due to critical condition

    Measured: 28d

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing titrated setting peep in people with ARDS and Intra-abdominal Hypertension, run by Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 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 Switzerland. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 li gang, master (+86-025-80860066, leeg871027@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ventilator-free days (time frame: 28d). 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 5 Apr 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
