Mechanical Ventilation Parameters in HAP Patients

October 24, 2017 updated by: Radovan Uvizl, University Hospital Olomouc

Nosocomial Pneumonia as a Factor Influencing Parameters of Mechanical Ventilation: Results of a Retrospective, Observational Study

Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) in patients in intensive care often requires the mechanical ventilation (MV). Management and weaning from MV are given by specificity of this type of pulmonary inflammation. Enrolled in the retrospective, observational study were all patients older than 18 years staying at the ICU of University Hospital in Olomouc, between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2016. The determination of the parameters of the MV, ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay and mortality in HAP group were compared with the control group of patients without HAP.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) development influences the parameters of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, hospital length of stay, need of tracheostomy, bronchoscopy, reconnection to MV and mortality. We respect HAP definition: acute inflammation of the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar structures and pulmonary interstitium. Clinically it is defined as the presence of newly developed or progressive infiltrates on chest radiographs plus at least two other signs of respiratory tract infection: temperature >38 °C, chest pain, purulent sputum, leukocytosis or leukopenia, signs of inflammation on auscultation, cough and/or respiratory insufficiency. HAP is defined as pneumonia that occurs 48 hours or more after admission, which was not incubating at the time of admission. A retrospective, observational study processing data on all consecutive intensive care patients older than 18 years of age between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2015. The aim was to determine the incidence of potential risk factors and their impact on the development of HAP. The primary outcome was investigation of the relationship between mechanical ventilation parameters and the presence of early- and late-onset HAP. Enrolled in the study were patients staying at the ICU of the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Palacky University Olomouc and University Hospital Olomouc, between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2016. The participants were all patients older than 18 years of age consecutively admitted to the ICU.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Study Population

Enrolled in the study were patients staying at the ICU of the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Palacky University Olomouc and University Hospital Olomouc, between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2015. The participants were all patients older than 18 years of age consecutively admitted to the ICU, who met HAP criteria.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
length of mechanical ventilation
Time Frame: during MV
days of MV
during MV

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
ICU length of stay
Time Frame: 1 month
length of stay in ICU

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
