- Registration Number
- NCT06148467
- Lead Sponsor
- Hospital Civil de Guadalajara
- Brief Summary
The goal of this prospective observational study is to describe the incidence of reverse trigger (RT) in mechanically ventilated patients with diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Real incidence of RT based on continuous monitoring
* The response to mechanical ventilatiory adjustments Participants will be included as soon as neuromuscular blockers (NMB)/sedation is stopped or in case of spontaneous respiratory efforts detection, whatever happens first. Continuous monitoring will be performed by esophageal manometry until switch to a pressure support (spontaneous) mode, restart of deep sedation/neuromuscular blockers by medical indication, or death.
In order to allow detection of possible RT in patients with ongoing sedation/NMB, mechanical ventilator waveforms will be screened every 1-2 hours by investigators and critical care physicians with at least 1 year of specific training in detection of dyssynchronies.
- Detailed Description
Measurements:
An esophageal catheter for manometry will be placed as usual practice with confirmation of adequate position with the Baydur's occlusion test before recordings. An independent flow sensor and pressure transducer will be placed and connected to a laptop computer to obtain real-time monitoring along with continuous recordings, which then will be off-line analyzed by two experts, for confirmation of RT and characterization.
Data collection:
Main cause of the acute respiratory failure and days on mechanical ventilation until enrollment will be collected as well as demographic characteristics, including APACHE II, SOFA and the previous requirement of prone positioning therapy.
At identification of the RT, drugs for sedation and analgesia, time from initiation of mechanical ventilation to RT identification and blood gas analysis will be recorded. Ventilatory settings will also be collected, including the control variable of the ventilatory mode (volume or pressure), respiratory rate, received tidal volume in ml/kg of predicted body weight, maximum inspiratory flow, ratio of partial arterial oxygen pressure (pO2) to fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), driving pressure and (positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Data about esophageal pressure related to RT will also be recorded, including the magnitude of pressure swing, phase angle, coefficient of variation, RT phenotype, entrainment ratio and the presence of breath stacking.
Patient-centered outcomes including length of mechanical ventilation, intensive care and hospital length of stay, and mortality will be followed-up until 60 days.
