About this study

Official title: GO2 PEEP Study: The Use of a Bidirectional Oxygenation Valve in the Management of Pulmonary Complications of COVID-19

The objective of this study is to determine the safety, feasibility and efficacy of a bidirectional oxygenation Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) mouthpiece in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients requiring supplemental oxygen by non-rebreather mask.

Read the detailed description

Severe cases of COVID-19 often mimic the typical course of Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and its predictable sequelae. These patients often require intubation and ventilator support in order to sustain adequate oxygenation. Once a COVID-19 patient is intubated, Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) is a mainstay of treatment and is used in order to improve lung function, treat underlying atelectasis, improve oxygenation, and improve survival. In fact, early clinical data as well as reports from front line physicians treating COVID-19 suggest that PEEP has been the most effective treatment modality. In many cases, PEEP has resulted in improved oxygenation and improved survival.

PEEP decreases the propensity for the alveoli to collapse by increasing the air pressure in the lungs. This residual pressure in the lungs at the end of exhalation decreases shunting and allows for more complete gas exchange and improved oxygenation. In patients, PEEP is one of the safest ways to increase partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and is used on almost all modern ventilator settings.

The GO2 PEEP MOUTHPIECE is a simple, comfortable, and straightforward mouthpiece with a bidirectional valve that effectively delivers PEEP with every breath. Early application of the GO2 PEEP MOUTHPIECE in non-intubated COVID-19 patients may improve outcomes and save lives. Furthermore, this device may allow for less strain on limited resources, especially ventilators. This PEEP mouthpiece could be employed under an oxygen non-rebreather mask to improve oxygenation and avoid intubation.

What participants receive

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

  • GO2 PEEP MOUTHPIECEDevice

    The GO2 PEEP MOUTHPIECE has a bidirectional valve that delivers PEEP with each breath. Participants will be provided a G02 PEEP MOUTHPIECE to use underneath the oxygen face mask and will be instructed to breathe slowly and deeply through the mouthpiece for 15 minutes total. Metrics for primary and secondary endpoints will be recorded immediately prior to use and then at 5, 10 and 15 minutes of use and then 15 minutes after cessation of use.

What is being measured

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

  1. Oxygen Saturation by Pulse Oximetry

    Pulse oximetry is a way to assess whether or not a patient needs help breathing. Oxygen saturation levels for healthy individuals are 95% and above.

    Measured: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Respiratory Rate

    The number of breaths per minute was assessed before treatment, during treatment, and 15 minutes after the end of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)

  2. Heart Rate

    Heart rate, in beats per minute, was assessed before treatment, during treatment, and 15 minutes after the end of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)

  3. Blood Pressure

    Systolic and diastolic blood pressure was assessed before treatment, during treatment, and 15 minutes after the end of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)

  4. Count of Participants With Subjective Work of Breathing

    Participants were observed for stridor, grunting, nasal flaring, or accessory muscle use. The presence of any of these indicates that increased effort is required for breathing.

    Measured: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GO2 PEEP MOUTHPIECE in people with COVID-19, run by Emory University at 2 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 18 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Feb 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Oxygen Saturation by Pulse Oximetry (time frame: Baseline, Minutes 5, 10, 15, 30 (15 minutes after treatment ends)). 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 18 Feb 2021.
