Trial summary

Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is the most commonly used mode in mechanical ventilated patients. Studies have shown that over-assistance was prevalent in patients undergoing PSV. Up to now, no reliable method has been recommended to select an "optimal" inspiratory support level. Read more about this study

About this study

Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is the most commonly used mode in mechanical ventilated patients. Studies have shown that over-assistance was prevalent in patients undergoing PSV. Up to now, no reliable method has been recommended to select an "optimal" inspiratory support level. Pressure muscle index (PMI) was introduced recently to evaluate the degree of spontaneous breathing effort. We hypothesize that PMI might be used as an indicator for over-assistance during PSV. In this randomized crossover study, inspiratory support is set at three levels according to negative, positive and zero PMI. Inspiratory effort, work of breathing, and respiratory mechanics are compared among the three inspiratory pressure support levels.

What participants receive

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

  • Inspiratory support levelProcedure or surgery

    Inspiratory support is the pressure delivered by the ventilator during pressure support ventilation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Inspiratory effort

    Inspiratory effort is measured as pressure generated by inspiratory muscles using esophageal pressure monitoring.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  2. Work of breathing

    Work of breathing is measured by the Campbell diagram and pressure-time-product using esophageal pressure monitoring.

    Measured: 30 minutes

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Respiratory system compliance (ml/cmH2O)

    Respiratory system compliance is calculated as the ratio between tidal volume and driving pressure.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  2. Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (mmHg)

    Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood is obtained by blood gas analysis.

    Measured: Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood

  3. Partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood (mmHg)

    Partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood is obtained by blood gas analysis.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  4. Respiratory rate (breaths/min)

    Respiratory rate calculation includes ineffective trigger.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  5. Tidal volume (ml)

    Tidal volume is obtained by intergation of flow-time tracing.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  6. Rapid shallow breathing index

    Rapid shallow breathing index is calculated as the ratio between respiratory rate and tidal volume.

    Measured: 30 minutes

  7. The use of accessory respiratory muscle

    The use of accessory respiratory muscle is observed at the bedside.

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inspiratory support level in people with Mechanical Ventilation, run by Capital Medical University at 2 sites in China.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2022. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jian-Xin Zhou, MD (8610 59978019, zhoujx.cn@icloud.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Inspiratory effort (time frame: 30 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Jan 2022.
