Risk Factors of Difficult Intubation and Related Complications in Adults in Intensive Care Units: FRIDA-Rea

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Difficult Intubation
Interventions
Procedure: INTUBATION IN INTENSIVE CARE UNIT
Registration Number
NCT01532063
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Montpellier
Brief Summary

Difficult intubation is challenging in intensive care units. There are limited data regarding risk factors of difficult intubation in ICU. The primary purpose of the investigators study is to assess the risk factors of difficult airway in adults in ICU.

Detailed Description

PURPOSE: Intubation in ICU strongly differs from intubation in operative rooms. The results of studies about risk factors of difficult intubation performed in operative rooms cannot therefore be extrapolated directly to ICU.

The primary purpose of this trial (cf Part "Design" of this registration) is "other" and more particularly "Prognosis" because it is is an assessment of risk factors of difficult airway in intensive care units.

DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY: This is an open prospective multicentric study of intubation in ICU in more than 50 centres. Consecutive intubations will be included in each centre, in order to reach the sample size required (at least 1000 procedures intubations). The usual risk factors of difficult intubation in operative rooms, the demographic parameters and the complications of intubation will be assessed, as well as survival status at 28 days.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Difficult intubationuntil to 10 minutes

According to ASA criteria, difficult intubation is measured by attempts lasting more than 10 min or more than two attempts

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Complications of intubation in ICUup to one hour after intubation

* Respiratory (inhalation, oesophageal intubation, SpO2\<80%)

* Hemodynamic(SAP\<65 mm Hg, elevated or low cardiac frequency,rythm troubles, heart attack),

* Neurologic (agitation),

* Local (dental trauma, laryngal trauma),

* Death

* Complications occuring during one hour after intubation: respiratory (major desaturation: SpO2\<80%, pneumothorax, persistent hypoxia with SpO2\<80%), hemodynamic (persistent hypotension: SAP\<90 mm Hg despite of vascular filling, rythm troubles, heart attack, introduction or majoration of amines posology), neurologic(agitation), death

Mortality at 28 days after difficult intubationup to 28 days after difficult intubation

Survival status at Day 28 or date of death if patient dead before.
