Trial summary

Despite the expert recommendation about rigorous monitoring of tracheal cuff pressure using a continuous or intermittent technique, cuff underinflation and overinflation are common increasing the risk of microinhalation and tracheal ischemia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Cross-over Study to Compare Two Different Tracheal Cuff Pressure Monitoring Devices in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

Despite the expert recommendation about rigorous monitoring of tracheal cuff pressure using a continuous or intermittent technique, cuff underinflation and overinflation are common increasing the risk of microinhalation and tracheal ischemia. All these complications are associated with high morbidity and mortality in ICU.

Read the detailed description

In this study, the investigators will compare the duration of the period of under-inflation and over-inflation between electronic (VBM©) and pneumatic (Nosten©) devices (continuous monitoring of tracheal cuff pressure), in critically intubated children. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the electronic device in the continuous monitoring of tracheal cuff pressure.

Being tested
Electronic device (VBM©), Pneumatic device (Nosten©)
Keywords
tracheal cuff pressure, pediatric critical care

What participants receive

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

  • Electronic device (VBM©)Device

    Continuous control of tracheal cuff pressure using an electronic device (VBM©) for 6-hours followed by continuous control using a pneumatic device (Nosten©) for 6-hours.

  • Pneumatic device (Nosten©)Device

    Continuous control using a pneumatic device (Nosten©) for 6-hours followed by 6-hours of continuous control using an electronic device (VBM©).

pneumatic device followed by electronic deviceExperimentalChildren receive the reverse sequence (continuous control using the pneumatic device (Nosten©) for 6-hours followed by the electronic device (VBM©) for 6-hours
Receives: Device: Pneumatic device (Nosten©)

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of time spend with over or under-inflation of the tracheal cuff

    Continuous recording of cuff pressure will be performed during the two 12-hours periods (electronic and pneumatic devices). The period was speared by a time of wash-out of 30 minutes

    Measured: 12 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The response time to a significant variation in cuff pressure

    Continuous recording of cuff pressure will be performed during the two 12-hours periods (electronic and pneumatic devices). Automated analysis of the response time in milliseconds to a change in cuff pressure of at least 15% above or below the target value

    Measured: 12 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Electronic device (VBM©) and Pneumatic device (Nosten©) in people with Cuff Overinflation and Cuff Underinflation, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 Oct 2021. 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?

Percentage of time spend with over or under-inflation of the tracheal cuff (time frame: 12 hours). 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 Oct 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
