CO2 Removal in Severe Acute exacerbatIons of Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases
- Conditions
- COPD Acute Exacerbation
- Interventions
- Device: ECCO2R
- Registration Number
- NCT05546606
- Lead Sponsor
- Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
- Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to determine which standard of care strategy will best benefit very severe Acute Exacerbation (AE) of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), single versus reinforced with ECCO2R and assess the respective efficacy and the safety. Very severe AE of COPD will be defined by high risk of Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV) failure defined by need of intubation and/or in-Intensive Care Unit (ICU) mortality (Stratum 1) or by Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) after NIV failure and/or with severe hyperinflation and hypercapnia (Stratum 2).
- Detailed Description
After inclusions, all patients from Stratum 1 (at high risk of NIV failure) and Stratum 2 (Intubation-IMV) will be randomly assigned to the single standard of care treatment or to the strengthen standard treatment reinforced with ECCO2R . Weaning of IMV in the strengthen standard of care group will precede weaning of ECCO2R. Weaning of NIV in the strengthen standard of care group will precede weaning of ECCO2R, except for patients with long-term NIV. The patients will undergo a maximum of 33 visits over the 1-year study duration, split in 3 successive periods: selection period, treatment period (until the discharge of the ICU or day 28 after randomisation), follow-up period after the discharge of the ICU (or after day 28) up to 1 year (after randomisation).
Selection period: before randomisation, demographics, medical and surgical history, clinical examination (including physical examination, respiration rate, encephalopathy score, sedation score, pain assessment, Simplified Acute Physiology Score 2, central body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, heart rate), blood sampling, electrocardiogram and ventilator parameters will be recorded.
Follow-up period: ECCO2R will start as soon as possible after randomisation in patients allocated to the strengthen standard of care group. All patients will be evaluated 12 + 2 hours after randomisation, followed by a daily visit with the collection of the following data if applicable: clinical examination, ECCO2R parameters, ventilator parameters, concomitant medications (including sedative drugs), occurrence of adverse events, date, time and criteria if endotracheal intubation (stratum 1). Arterial blood gases, hematology and serum biochemistry parameters will be assayed daily.
End of Research period: all patients will be evaluated at day 60 (+ 7 days), Day 90 (+ 7 days), Day 180 (+ 7 days) and 1 year (+ 7 days) at least by phone contact, with collection of: vital status, functional status (Severely Disabled or not, Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living), date of ICU discharge (if \> Day 28), date of hospital discharge, occurrences of ICU re-admissions, of adverse events, type and length of mechanical ventilation needed if applicable.
