About this study

Official title: Airway Clearance for Pediatric and Adult Cystic Fibrosis Patients Using a Portable Intra-Pulmonary Percussion Device (PIAPD)

This is a pilot study where the investigators aim to compare initial use of the standard airway clearance device (SACD), most commonly used being High frequency vest airway clearance system (VEST) with subsequent use of a Portable Intra-Pulmonary Percussion Device (PIAPD) in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) ages 6 -21 years. The primary hypothesis is that there is no effect of PIAPD on Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) 2 hours after use, there is no effect on perception of effort and efficacy for the PIAPD. If both are equally effective, the latter device provides an alternative that is both cheaper and portable.

What participants receive

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

  • Standard Airway Clearance deviceDevice

    Subjects will be using their home standard airway clearance device, VEST (High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation VEST) for 2 weeks followed by PIAPD.

  • Portable Internal Airway Percussion deviceDevice

    Subjects will be using the investigational device, PIAPD (Portable Internal Airway Percussion Device) for 2 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Oxygen Saturation % by Pulse Oximetry

    oxygen saturation will be obtained by home pulse oximeter device.

    Measured: O2 saturation measured immediately prior to treatment and 2 hours after treatment - one-time pre/post treatment in week 1; and one-time pre/post treatment in week 2

Model description
This is a pilot study where the investigators aim to compare initial use of the standard airway clearance device (SACD) with subsequent use of a PIAPD in patients with stable cystic fibrosis ages 6 -21 years. The primary hypothesis (Stated as Null) being that there is no effect of PIAPD on FEV1 2 hours after use, there is no effect on perception of effort and efficacy for the PIAPD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Standard Airway Clearance device and Portable Internal Airway Percussion device in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by University of Florida at 1 site 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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2024. 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 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 19 Nov 2024). 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: O2 saturation measured immediately prior to treatment and 2 hours after treatment - one-time pre/post treatment in week 1; and one-time pre/post treatment in week 2). 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 19 Nov 2024.
