LongVentKids Study (LVK)

September 30, 2019 updated by: Atsushi Kawaguchi, St. Justine's Hospital

Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation in Paediatric Intensive Care : An International Cross-Sectional Prevalence Study

Scientific advances, population growth, lower mortality, and increasing complexity of diseases have boosted up the number of patients requiring prolonged breathing assistance with mechanical ventilators in the pediatric intensive care units (PICU) in many parts of the developed world. Previous studies also suggest that there is a small group of children who actually need such a high level of support for extended periods of time, utilizing a lot of human and technical resources. We defined children with prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) if they required supports with a breathing machine for more than 14 days. We propose an international point prevalence study of children requiring PMV in PICU. We will conduct the study in multiple centers in several different regions, including North and South America, Europe, and Asian countries, with a strong relationship with local physician colleagues. Practice for patients requiring PMV will be examined including the type and size of local PICU, admission and discharge policies, and patient and treatment modalities administered to such patients, types of professionals looking after patients in PMV, types of health care. We anticipate a high variability in practices suggesting a need to further standardize the management of PMV.. Specifically, as an immediate consequence, by comparing and understanding the differences in patient demographics, practice details among PICUs in regards to the background factors of local PICUs and their patients, practitioners will share their way of dealing with such patients. In that way, this study will support the need to generate guidelines and lead to patient care improvement in PICUs.

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

8 months to 18 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

N/A

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All patients on invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation on the day of the study or patients who had been on InMV or non-invasive ventilation (NIVs) during their PICU stays will be eligible. Patients who fulfill inclusion criteria and do not meet any exclusion criteria will be considered for inclusion in the study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients who are ventilated >14 consecutive days (after 37 weeks postmenstrual post-conception age)*

  • including for more than 6 hours per day including on InMV and NIV duration
  • patient who have had and short interruptions (<48hours) of ventilation during the weaning process as the same episode of ventilation can be included.
  • InMV can be administered through an endotracheal tube or a tracheostomy tube.
  • NIV can be managed through a nasal, full-face, total facial mask, or helmet.
  • Patient on HFNC will be included as on respiratory support if they have a proper or a nasal cannula (that allows >=1 liters/kg/min (LPM) and >4LPM).
  • We define nasal oxygen supply <1 L/kg/min as non-NIV practice.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Age >18 years
  • Already included in this study
  • No consent if required
  • Brain death
  • Premature children not yet at 37 weeks gestational age.

Design Details

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
Prevalence of PMV
Time Frame: eight times during two-year study period
number of patients meet PMV criteria devided by the number of patients admitted in PICUs on the specific data collection date and time.
eight times during two-year study period

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
Patient and treatment demographics
Time Frame: eight times during two-year study period

patient demographics underlying chronic disease acute disease leading to InMV or to NIV (i.e. reason of PMV) co-morbidities (Cerebral palsy, Seizure disorder, etc.) type of airway access MV mode and the days of ventilations for each mode care providers (e.g. intensivists, pediatric intensivists, anesthesiologist, paediatrician, pulmonologist) Nurse : patient ratio failed extubations or not during PMV location of patients on PMV (PICU or step down unit under PICU staff or not)
