The METEOR Trial will compare four implementation strategies-traditional online education, protocol-directed care, interprofessional education, and a combination of protocol-directed care and interprofessional education-to test the hypotheses that interprofessional education is superior to traditional online education as an implementation strategy in the intensive care unit (ICU) and the benefits of interprofessional education are increased when interprofessional education is paired with a clinical protocol. Additionally, the trial will also test the hypothesis that preventive post-extubation NIV for high-risk patients and preventive post-extubation HFNC for low-risk patients are both superior to current clinical practice (i.e., conventional post-extubation oxygen therapy).

Around 20% of the obese patients with higher body mass index (BMI) who are taken off the breathing tube and breathing machine (ventilator) end up needing it back to support breathing. The re-application of breathing tube is associated with poor outcomes, including high risk of pneumonia, longer hospital stays, and death. The purpose of this study is to assess if prophylactic use of noninvasive breathing support after removing the breathing tube lowers the chance of needing the breathing tube again.

The proposed study is to compare a modified DE technique, which is regularly used for low-risk patients by staff anesthesiologists at our institution, to a standard awake extubation. This modified deep extubation (mDE) occurs while the patient is still anaesthetized but at a lower dose of anaesthetic gas than previously described, and balanced with long acting opioids to attenuate the airway reaction. As previously stated, the literature shows that the risks of DE are equivalent to those of regular AE practice. Our hypothesis is that mDE will shorten the time from the end of the surgery (completion of last stitch) to the moment the patient is ready to leave the OR by at least 5 minutes when compared to standard AE practice.

Timely and safe extubation in critically ill patients is vitally important as prolonged mechanical ventilation and failed attempts at extubation are associated with increased morbidity, mortality, costs, intensive care unit (ICU) stays, and a risk for aerosolization of COVID-19 to health care providers. A Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) is the current standard of care to assess a patient's readiness for extubation. However, SBTs are performed in various ways and have poor ability to predict successful extubation on their own. There is an urgent need to improve and standardize extubation decision-making. In a prior multicenter study, the investigators showed that decreased respiratory rate variability during SBTs predicted extubation failure better than other predictive indices. The Extubation Advisor (EA) tool combines clinician's assessments of extubation readiness with predictive analytics and risk mitigation strategies for individual patients. In a single centre observational study, the investigators demonstrated the ability to deliver EA reports to the bedside and acceptability of this decision-support tool to respiratory therapists (RTs) and physicians (MDs). The investigators will conduct the Liberation from mechanical ventilation using EA Decision Support (LEADS) Pilot Trial to assess feasibility outcomes. They will include critically ill adults who are invasively ventilated for \>48 hours and are ready to undergo an SBT. Patients in the intervention arm undergo an EA assessment and treating clinicians (RTs, MDs) will receive an EA report for each SBT conducted. The EA report will help to guide extubation decision-making. Patients in the control arm receive standard care. SBTs will be directed by clinicians. The primary feasibility outcome will reflect the ability to recruit the desired population. The investigators will also assess the usefulness of the tool to MDs and complete an analysis of resource utilization to inform future economic analyses of cost-effectiveness. The investigators aim to recruit 1 to 2 patients/month/center. The LEADS trial is novel and low-risk. It is the first trial to evaluate use of a bedside decision support tool to assist ICU clinicians with extubation decision-making. The LEADS pilot trial will inform the design of a future, large-scale randomized controlled trial that is expected to enhance the care delivered to critically ill patients, improve extubation outcomes, and inform extubation practice in ICUs.

Cuff Techniques for Preventing Aspiration

Camp Lejeune, North Carolina
General anesthesia is a treatment with medicine to make a patient unconscious for surgery. This is sometimes called "being put to sleep" or "being put under." Most of the time, a breathing tube is used to help a machine breathe for patients. The breathing tube has a cuff, which is like a small balloon. After the breathing tube is placed, the cuff is inflated. This keeps the breathing tube in place and keeps fluids like saliva and stomach juices from getting into the windpipe and lungs. When a breathing tube is removed, that is called extubation. Normally, doctors deflate the cuff before removing the breathing tube. This is called deflated cuff extubation. Some doctors worry that keeping the cuff inflated while it is removed can damage the throat or vocal cords. However, some doctors keep the cuff inflated when removing the breathing tube. This is called inflated cuff extubation. These doctors think that keeping the cuff inflated can help keep fluids from entering the airway. Doctors have not studied if deflated cuff extubation is better or worse than inflated cuff extubation. The goal of this study is to see which type of extubation is better at keeping fluids from getting in the airway. Participants who are part of this study will get general anesthesia and have surgery as planned. Near the end of surgery, a small amount of liquid is placed at the back of a participant's mouth. This liquid is called contrast material, and it is like a dye. The contrast material will help determine if any liquid enters the windpipe or lungs. Then, contrast material is removed, along with any other fluids, using normal methods. When it is safe to take the breathing tube out, a deflated cuff extubation or an inflated cuff extubation will be performed. This decision will be made at random, like by the flip of a coin. Information will be collected about participants, the surgery, and how well a participant is breathing. After surgery, a chest x-ray will be taken to see if any of the contrast material is in the windpipe or lungs. Otherwise, everything else after surgery would be normal. 24 to 48 hours after surgery, a member of the research team will ask about any symptoms a participant may have, like sore throat or a hoarse voice. Research would conclude at that time.

1. An intact pharyngoesophageal reflex is essential to protect the upper airway from aspiration of either mouth contents or regurgitated gastric refluxate. This reflex is essential at protecting the airway in all patients. 2. In patients, while under medication to tolerate endotracheal intubation, it is postulated that an identifiable upper esophageal sphincter and esophageal peristalsis are not present. 3. With the cessation of anesthetics, accompanied by the reversal of nerve block, normal pharyngoesophageal peristaltic activity correlates with awakening the patient from anesthesia. This would be identified by the performance of esophageal manometry. 4. A return of normal verbally stimulated pharyngoesophageal swallowing sequence accurately identifies a safe time to remove endotracheal tubes and/or reverse anesthesia. This verbally stimulated swallowing sequence correlated precisely with the return of objective pharyngoesophageal function.

Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 38

"I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."

WR
Obesity PatientAge: 58

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

ZS
Depression PatientAge: 51

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

FF
ADHD PatientAge: 31

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Extubation clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Extubation clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Extubation trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Extubation is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Extubation medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Extubation clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Esophageal Manometry for Gastrointestinal Motility, Cuff Techniques for Preventing Aspiration and Extubation Advisor for Extubation to the Power online platform.
