NCT ID NCT01426178

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 trial compares two modes of noninvasive ventilation in adults with acute respiratory failure: standard pressure support (PSV) and a newer mode called Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA). NAVA uses electrical signals from the diaphragm to trigger breathing support, which may better match the patient's own breathing efforts. The main goal is to see if NAVA reduces the rate of breathing asynchrony—when the ventilator and the patient are out of sync—compared to PSV. Participants are randomly assigned to receive NAVA first or PSV first, and the study also tracks oxygenation and patient comfort.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) delivered via a specialized catheter
What this could lead to
If NAVA reduces breathing asynchrony, it could improve comfort and oxygenation for patients needing noninvasive ventilation.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-phase trial, so results may not apply broadly. NAVA requires a specialized catheter, which may not be widely available or comfortable for all patients.
