Effect of Non-Invasive Ventilation in Cystic Fibrosis Patient With Chronic Respiratory Failure.
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Cochin Hospital, September 2005
Sponsored by: Cochin Hospital
Information provided by: Cochin Hospital
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00208078
  Purpose

There is no randomised controlled trials to determine the clinical effects of long term Non-Invasive Ventilation in Cystic Fibrosis patients.


Condition Intervention Phase
Cystic Fibrosis
Chronic Respiratory Failure
Device: pressure support ventilator (AIROX, SAIME)
Phase IV

Genetics Home Reference related topics: cystic fibrosis
MedlinePlus related topics: Cystic Fibrosis
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study
Official Title: Evaluation of the Effects of Long Term Non-Invasive Ventilation in Patient With Cystic Fibrosis and Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure.

Further study details as provided by Cochin Hospital:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The effect of non-invasive ventilation on room air PaCO2 at one year: Hypothesis is PaCO2 stabilisation in the non-invasive ventilation group compared to a increase in PaCO2 in the control group (standard treatment)

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Effects of non-invasive ventilation on dyspnea index, functional status (6 minutes walking test, spirometric values), pulmonary exacerbations and body mass index (BMI) compared to standard treatment.

Estimated Enrollment: 80
Study Start Date: May 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: May 2008
Detailed Description:

The effects of long term mechanical ventilation for the treatment of respiratory failure in patients with neuromuscular diseases is well established.

Long term non-invasive ventilation is commonly used in the treatment of Cystic Fibrosis patients with respiratory failure. However, the benefits of this treatment have never been studied in randomized control trials and are unknown.

The goal of this multicenter study is to evaluate the effects of the addition of non-invasive ventilation to the standard therapy in stable Cystic Fibrosis patients with chronic hypercapnia.

Two groups of patients will be followed: The first group will receive standard treatment for advanced Cystic Fibrosis according to international guidelines, the second group will receive the same treatment plus non-invasive ventilation (4H/day). The follow up time will be one year for each patient.
