Clinical Trial for the Evaluation of Customized 3D Printed NIV Nasal Masks in Premature Infants (M3DPREMAT)

April 16, 2024 updated by: María Teresa Moral Pumarega, Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre

Clinical Trial to Assess the Clinical Impact, Efficacy and Safety of Customized Nasal Masks Designed by 3D Printing During Non-invasive Ventilation in Premature Infants

Clinical trial with crossed groups, open, masked for the evaluation of the main outcome. Inclusion of all premature infants with a birth weight less than 1500 g requiring Non-invasive Ventilation (NIV).

Premature will be randomised to start alternatively with MT or 3DM. Each patient included will be their own control at the same time, receiving each of the different mask models every 4 hours alternately. The study period will be a maximum of 7 days.

To compare the time in which preterm maintain SatO2 below 85% with the 3DM versus the traditional mask (TM) in preterm < 1500 g. Other secondary objectives regarding ventilation enhancement will be assessed, such as the number of bradycardias, cardiorespiratory arrest and need for resuscitation in the context of apnea. Also, skin lesions of the nose resulting from the pressure applied by any of the masks (TM or 3DM) and the need for analgesia and/or sedation for pain control or discomfort will be assessed. Parental perception and satisfaction will be assessed.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Improvement and optimization of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in preterm and low birth weight infants is essential in order to reduce morbidity. By the use of 3D printing design (3DM), these infants would be provided with customized nasal masks, according to their particular anatomical features while on NIV. This would lead to a greater stabilization of the respiratory system, decreased apnea spells, oxygen desaturation and bradycardia, less need for intubation and less skin nose injury, all of which might improve neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Premature infants with a birth weight less than 1500 g r first received 3D mask during 4 hour, then crossed over to traditional mask.
Premature infants with a birth weight less than 1500 g r first received traditional mask during 4 hours, then crossed over to 3D mask.
Active Comparator: Traditional Mask (TM)
Traditional Mask (TM) application in neonate during 4 hours. Each patient included will be their own control at the same time, receiving each of the different mask models every 4 hours alternately. The study period will be a maximum of 7 days.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time in which preterm maintain SatO2 below 85%.
Time Frame: 7 days
To compare the time in which preterm maintain SatO2 below 85%.in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM).
7 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time in which preterm maintain bradycardias.
Time Frame: 7 days
To compare the time in which preterm maintain bradycardias - heart rate below 100 beats per minute - that occur in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM).
7 days
Time in which preterm maintain SatO2 below 75%.
Time Frame: 7 days
To compare the time in which preterm maintain SatO2 below 75%.in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM).
7 days
Number of times requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Time Frame: 7 days
Compare the number of times requiring cardiorespiratory resuscitation with self-inflating bag in the context of apnea pause or severe desaturation in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM).
7 days
Appearance of cutaneous lesions in nasal region or mucosa
Time Frame: 7 days
To compare the appearance of cutaneous lesions in the nasal region or nasal mucosa as a consequence of the pressure exerted by any of the masks, indicating the location and degree of the wound in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM).
7 days
Pain assessment with scoring scale.
Time Frame: 7 days
To compare the degrees of pain, measured in the neonatal pain scale PIPP-R (Premature Infant Pain Profile-Revised), obtained every 12 hours in the period of time that customized 3D printed nasal mask (3DM) is used versus traditional nasal mask (TM). Regarding the PIPP-R scale, the minimum score is 1 and the maximum is 21. Scores between 1-6 correspond to mild pain, 7-11 moderate pain, and 12-21 severe pain.
