New breathing tech aims to free ICU patients from ventilators faster

NCT ID NCT05219643

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tested whether a newer breathing support method called NAVA helps patients with ARDS come off mechanical ventilation faster than standard PSV. 130 tracheotomy patients were randomly assigned to one of the two methods. The main goal was to see how many days patients were alive and free from the ventilator within 28 days.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
NAVA (neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist) device
What this could lead to
If successful, NAVA could become a standard method to help patients with ARDS breathe on their own faster, reducing time on a ventilator.
What could go wrong
This is a completed trial with 130 participants, so results are limited. NAVA may not improve weaning success or ICU outcomes compared to standard care.
