About this study

Official title: "Patient's TeleMonitoring With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Treated by Non Invasive Ventilation at Home." Tele Monitoring Ventilation At Home (TM-VAH)

Single-center, prospective pilot study on patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fitted with noninvasive ventilation. The objective is to assess the satisfaction of remote monitoring of patients on non-invasive ventilation after 12 months.

Read the detailed description

The non invasive ventilation is one of treatments used during the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis when patients have a chronic respiratory failure with alveolar hypoventilation signs. It is demonstrated to improve quality of life and prognosis of the disease. These patients, often severely disabled, generally have a negative experience of repeated hospitalizations. Despite everything, medical and paramedical monitoring is necessary, especially when they are fitted with non invasive ventilation (NIV). A quarterly reassessment is recommended . The possibilities of telemonitoring at home have grown considerably in recent years. In addition, the fans are currently able to remotely transfer a certain amount of data to the service provider, making remote monitoring feasible.Our project therefore aims to assess the feasibility of remote monitoring of patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) fitted with non invasive ventilation (NIV) through the assessment of their satisfaction, using both medical data and data provided by the ventilator. It is a single-center, prospective pilot study on 30 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fitted with noninvasive ventilation. Patients will benefit from a quarterly teleconsultation to assess the study criteria through questionnaires during 12 months. Ventilation machines make it possible to carry out remote monitoring, with the help of healthcare providers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient satisfaction of the telemonitoring of non invasive ventilation at home assessed by CSQ-8 at the end of the study

    Consumer satisfaction questionnaire (CSQ-8), minimal score is 8 and maximal score is 32. The best score is 32, that mean that patient is satisfied.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Effect of remote monitoring

    evaluated by teleconsultation

    Measured: every 3 months during 1 year

  2. Patient satisfaction during the study

    assessed by Consumer satisfaction questionnaire (CSQ-8), minimal score is 8 and maximal score is 32. The best score is 32, that mean that patient is satisfied.

    Measured: every 3 months during 1 year

  3. Feasibility for caregivers assessed by Zarit questionnaire

    Painfulness or burden assessment scale. Minimal score is 0 and maximal score is 76. the higher the score, the greater the difficulty.

    Measured: every 3 months during 1 year

  4. Feasibility for caregivers assessed by Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21) questionnaire

    Painfulness or burden assessment scale. Minimal score is 0 and maximal score is 63. the higher the score, the greater the depression.

    Measured: every 3 months during 1 year

  5. Feasibility for nursing staff

    data collected through remote monitoring

    Measured: every 3 months during 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing teleconsultation in people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Noninvasive Ventilation, run by University Hospital, Toulouse 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?

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 17 Jun 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 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?

Patient satisfaction of the telemonitoring of non invasive ventilation at home assessed by CSQ-8 at the end of the study (time frame: 1 year). 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 Jun 2024.
