Mask Adhesive Institutional Study

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Respiratory Failure
Covid19
Interventions
Device: Mask without Mask Adhesive / Arm 2
Device: Mask with Mask Adhesive/Arm 1
Registration Number
NCT04644276
Lead Sponsor
Philips Clinical & Medical Affairs Global
Brief Summary

To reduce interface leak and aerosol spread, Philips has developed an accessory to non-invasive ventilation(NIV) masks to be used with the Philips AF531 and the PerformaTrak mask on respiratory failure patients. For the purposes of capturing initial mask leak and safety data, this trial will enroll patients treated with NIV in an institutional setting (i.e., sleep lab).

Detailed Description

The Mask Adhesive will serve as an accessory to the AF531/PerformaTrak masks with the intention to reduce patient leak while a patient is receiving therapy. This accessory is a double-sided adhesive; with one side applied directly to the patient's skin and the other side connected to the mask cushion. Each adhesive is only to be applied to a patient once. The AF531/Performatrak mask can be removed from the adhesive and then re-applied, as necessary. For example, if the patient needs to remove the mask to eat or take medicine, the mask is removed from the patient and the adhesive will stay on the patient's face

Mask without Mask Adhesive/Arm 2Mask without Mask Adhesive / Arm 2Patients will be randomized to Arm 2 if they receive the mask without mask adhesive on the first study night then they will receive the mask with the mask adhesive on the second study night.
Mask with Mask Adhesive/Arm 1Mask with Mask Adhesive/Arm 1Patients will be randomized to AF531 if they receive mask adhesive with mask on the first study night then the mask without mask adhesive(Performatrak) on the second study night.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Medical Adhesive-Related Skin Injury (MARSI)Up to 5 business days

Percentage of patients who have severe and extreme skin irritation that persists for ≥ 30 min after mask adhesive removal (score of ≥ 3 on a 5-point grading system).

Clinician Ease of UseInitial Impressions at Baseline and Overall Impressions at Study Completion (After at least two mask applications)

Clinician-perceived mask adhesive ease-of-use as measured by a 0-10 Likert Scale at baseline (initial impressions) and study completion (overall impressions) Specifically, the item, "How would you rate the ease of application of the adhesive to the mask?" (On a 0 to 10 scale, with 0=Extremely Difficult and 10=Extremely Easy)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Leak ChangeUp to 5 business days

Change in leak volume (L/min) after mask adhesive use as compared to the use of the mask without the adhesive. Percent change in leak (endpoint per protocol) is reported in the Statistical Analysis section.
