About this study

Official title: Automation Oxygen Flow Titration in Spontaneously Breathing Infants Less Than One Year of Age During a First Episode of Bronchiolitis

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of the FreeO2 device in shortening the hospital length of stay during a first episode of hypoxemic bronchiolitis in infants less than 1 year of age.

FreeO2Bronchio study is a multicenter, prospective, controlled, randomized, open-label study.

Read the detailed description

This is a controlled, randomized, open-label, multicentre trial. Patients will be included after written informed consent will be obtained from the patients' parents or legally authorized representatives. Patients will be randomized either in the "FreeO2" group for automatic oxygen flow titration or in the "manual" group for Oxygen therapy with manual flow titration. The SpO2 will be recorded continuously in both groups of the study using the FreeO2 device throughout the duration of hospitalization; In the group "FreeO2 ", the device will record the data continuously and allow the automation of oxygen titration - in the group "Manual", the device will only be used to monitor SpO2 and heart rate.

What participants receive

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

  • FreeO2 (modèle FO2-220-00) automatic oxygen flow titrationDevice

    Automatic adjustment of oxygen flow titration through the FreeO2 device. The monitor allows continuous monitoring and recording of SpO2 and Heart rate

  • FreeO2 (modèle FO2-220-00) manual oxygen flow titrationDevice

    Manual oxygen flow titration performed by the healthcare provider in charge of the patient (nurse, physician). For this group, the FreeO2 device will only monitor and record SpO2 and heart rate.

What is being measured

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

  1. Length of hospital stay in hours since the admission to the emergency room.

    The length of hospital stay in hours since admission in the emergency room will be compared between the two groups.

    Measured: 30 days max

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of patients readmited to hospital within 7 days and 30 days following discharge

    Measured: 30 days max

  2. Number of patients needing assisted ventilation (invasive or noninvasive )

    Measured: 30 days max

  3. Number of patient admitted to the intensive care unit within 3 days following the hospital admission

    Measured: 30 days max

  4. Duration of enteral feeding (hours)

    Measured: 30 days max

  5. Duration of intravenous hydration (hours)

    Measured: 30 days max

  6. Number of reported Adverse Events

    Measured: 30 days max

  7. Time spent in the a area of severe desaturation (SpO2 <92%) and of hyperoxia area (SpO2> 98%).

    Measured: 30 days max

  8. Number of patients needing Heated Humidified High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNNC)

    Measured: 30 days max

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FreeO2 (modèle FO2-220-00) automatic oxygen flow titration and FreeO2 (modèle FO2-220-00) manual oxygen flow titration in people with Bronchiolitis, run by University Hospital, Brest at 10 sites 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 3 inclusion and 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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 was stopped early (reason given: OXYNOV discontinues loan of FREEO2 devices). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Length of hospital stay in hours since the admission to the emergency room. (time frame: 30 days max). 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 17 Dec 2024.
