Evaluation the Association of Microbiome Between Respiratory Tract Samples and Stool Samples in Pneumonic Patients Accompanied by Respiratory Failure

Completed
Conditions
Pneumonia, Bacterial
Respiratory Failure
Microbiota
Lower Resp Tract Infection
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: 16s RNA sequence of sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (options), stool
Registration Number
NCT03379779
Lead Sponsor
Taichung Veterans General Hospital
Brief Summary

A prospective observational study. Enrolled participants admitted to ICU due to pneumonia and respiratory failure need mechanical ventilator support. Investigators collected the residual specimens, such as sputum from endotrachea aspiration, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in those participants as the usual care in the ICU. Those residual samples were sent to extract RNA and sequence by using high-throughput sequencing (next-generation sequencing) method.

Investigators will compared the microbiome feature between lower respiratory tract and stool specimens in those participants diagnosed as pneumonia with respiratory failure.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The dynamics of the airway bacterial microbiome in the lower respiratory tract specimens in the setting of pneumonia accompanied by respiratory failure at the onset of, and day 3 and day 7 (or before extubation)Compared the dynamic change of mirobiome at the baseline (onset of respiratory failure within 48 hours)m day 3 and day 7

Uses high-throughput sequencing (next-generation sequencing) to sequence the 16S rRNA sequence of bacteria in residual samples

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The dynamics of the gut bacterial microbiome in the stool specimens in the setting of pneumonia accompanied by respiratory failure at the onset of, and day 3 and day 7 (or before extubation)Compared the dynamic change of mirobiome at the baseline (onset of respiratory failure within 48 hours)m day 3 and day 7
