Ultrasound-Guided fluid removal could shorten time on ventilators

NCT ID NCT05188092

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether using lung ultrasound to guide removal of extra fluid helps patients on breathing machines in the ICU breathe on their own sooner. About 1,000 adults who need a ventilator for at least another day will be randomly assigned to have fluid removal guided by ultrasound or by usual care. The goal is to see if ultrasound guidance leads to more days alive and off the ventilator within 28 days.

Study facts

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 1,000 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Admission to one of the participating ICUs; * Invasively ventilated for less than 24 hours at randomization; * Expected to be under invasive ventilation for longer than 24 hours after randomization. Exclusion Criteria: * Age below 18 years old; * Suspected or confirmed pregnancy; * Participation in other interventional trials with similar endpoints; * Use of long term home mechanical ventilation; * Neurological condition that can prolong duration of mechanical ventilation (i.e.Guillain-Barré syndrome, high spinal cord lesion, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, or myasthenia gravis); * Conditions in which LUS cannot be performed or correctly interpreted (i.e. chest wall abnormalities, morbid obesity, and pre-existing interstitial lung disease); * Conditions in which targeting a negative fluid balance is discouraged (i.e. subarachnoid bleeding, severe rhabdomyolysis (CK \> 20.000); * Previous participation in this RCT; * Patients transferred from another center and invasively ventilated for longer than 24 hours.
