Infasurf®(Calfactant) Aerosol for Infants With Bronchiolitis-AERO-04
- Conditions
- Bronchiolitis
- Interventions
- Combination Product: Aerosolized Infasurf
- Registration Number
- NCT03748173
- Lead Sponsor
- ONY
- Brief Summary
Delivery of aerosolized Infasurf to bronchiolitis patients with who are not on assisted ventilation can provide sufficient delivery of Infasurf to small airways to improve ventilation and thereby shorten the duration of the respiratory illness.
- Detailed Description
This pilot clinical trial will compare "usual care" to aerosolized Infasurf. The study objective is to determine
1. Do bronchiolitis patients tolerate aerosolized Infasurf?
2. Does aerosolized Infasurf induce an improvement in respiration?
3. If it does how large a dose is required to observe a positive effect?
4. Is the positive effect transient, if so what is the range of duration of the effect?
5. Does retreatment also result and a positive response?
6. Does aerosolized Infasurf result in more rapid sustained improvement? is superior to.

Group Intervention Description Treatment Aerosolized Infasurf Subjects randomized to the aerosol surfactant evaluation will occur at the end of 60 minutes, with the aerosol continued if the bronchiolitis score is \> 4 or there has been less than a 2-point improvement in the bronchiolitis score. Similar evaluation will be performed, if necessary, at 30-minute intervals (maximum 2 hours) with stoppage of the aerosol for an improved bronchiolitis score (≤ 4 or 2-point improvement) at any of the time points. The aerosol would be stopped at any time for significant sustained deterioration in clinical status or any serious adverse event felt related to the treatment. Retreatment can be given at \> 4 but \< 24 hours if the initial response was positive and there has been subsequent deterioration.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Improvement in Respiratory Status 24 hours post PICU admission Incidence of positive respiratory response to Infasurf® Aerosol defined as Bronchiolitis Clinical Score decreased by 2 points or to ≤4.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Need of Respiratory support 24 hours post PICU admission Incidence of need for non-invasive (BiPAP, NIV-NAVA) or invasive ventilation
