简要总结
The goal of this research study is to assess the FDA approved technique for inserting a feeding tube (gastrostomy) along with a breathing tube (tracheostomy) for patients that cannot breathe or eat on their own in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit). All subjects in the study will receive a tracheostomy, but each patient will be randomly assigned a common method for gastrostomy placement. The placement of the tube and tracheostomy will occur as part of normal clinical practice. Researchers will compare subjects in the control group and the intervention group to evaluate the benefits of performing a tracheostomy and gastrostomy tube at the same time. Researchers will also evaluate the likelihood of the PUG procedure decreasing a patient's length of stay in the ICU.
详细描述
The research team will assess eligibility during the screening period for percutaneous tracheostomy and gastrostomy. Once eligibility is assessed, participants and/or their legally authorized representative (LAR) will be approached for consent and enrollment into the trial. Randomization occurs at the time of the subject's enrollment, and participants will be randomized to either the Control or Intervention (TPUG) groups using randomly assigned numbers. The study team will also be blinded to the assigned group prior to recruitment to limit selection bias. The intervention group will receive concomitant placement of the tracheostomy and PUG, which will be performed using the FDA-cleared device for ultrasound gastrostomy, the PUMA-G System. The control group will receive percutaneous bedside tracheostomy along with gastrostomy methods other than PUG. Each site will perform the procedures of tracheostomy and gastrostomy using the devices according to their institutional policy and guidelines. Investigators will utilize case report forms (CRFs) and chart review to collect demographic information, important medical events, illnesses, and laboratory data needed for outcomes assessment.

结局指标
主要结局
Length of stay in ICU
时间窗: ICU discharge - up to 24 weeks
To compare the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) length of stay (days) from the time the decision is made to place a tracheostomy tube and gastrostomy tube to the time of discharge from the ICU for participants receiving TPUG versus a control group.
次要结局
- Length of hospital stay(Hospital discharge - through study completion, an average of 45 days)
- Demographics(End of study comparison - through study completion, an average of 45 days)
