REVISE Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether a drug called pantoprazole decreases acid production in the stomach to prevent ulcers and bleeding in ICU patients who need breathing machines. The trial will also study whether pantoprazole has any harmful effects, such as lung or bowel infections.

Who is the study for?
The REVISE trial is for adults over 18 in the ICU on a ventilator, expected to remain so for at least two more days. It's not for those with severe liver disease, certain drug treatments (HIV protease inhibitors, high-dose methotrexate), or who've been on mechanical ventilation for over 72 hours. Pregnant women and patients already treated with similar drugs are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study tests if pantoprazole prevents stomach ulcers and bleeding in critically ill ventilated patients versus a saline placebo. The aim is to see if pantoprazole reduces such bleeding without causing lung or bowel infections, compared to no treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of pantoprazole may include an increased risk of lung infections like pneumonia and bowel infections such as Clostridium difficile.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What other scientific papers have been published about Stress Ulcer Prophylaxis (Pantoprazole)?

"Stress Ulcer Prophylaxis (Pantoprazole) was first observed in 2008 at National Taiwan University Hospital. So far, there have been 109 completed studies with 13 more currently underway. Many of these active clinical trials are based in Kitchener, Alberta."

Answered by AI

How does Pantoprazole help patients with stress ulcers?

"While commonly used to treat erosive esophagitis, Pantoprazole (Stress Ulcer Prophylaxis) can also help those who have gastroesophageal reflux disease and require a reduction in gastric acid secretion."

Answered by AI

How many total people are enrolled in this experiment?

"Indeed, the clinical trial is ongoing and is recruiting patients as of October 19th, 2022. The trial was initially posted on July 9th, 2018 and has 45 different sites. The aim is to enroll 4800 people in total."

Answered by AI

What is the goal of this medical study?

"The primary objective of this study is to assess the 90-day mortality rate of patients. Secondary objectives include the rate of important gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in ICU or resulting in ICU readmission, the rate of Clostridium difficile associated infection, and the rate of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) in ICU."

Answered by AI

Could you explain the potential risks of taking Pantoprazole for stress ulcer prevention?

"There is some efficacy data and multiple rounds of safety data, meaning that Stress Ulcer Prophylaxis (Pantoprazole) is likely safe and received a score of 3."

Answered by AI

Where are the different sites where this study is taking place?

"There are 45 sites enrolling patients in this study, which are located in cities including Kitchener, North York, and Toronto. Patients are encouraged to choose the site closest to them to reduce the amount of travel required."

Answered by AI

Is this clinical trial currently looking for more participants?

"Clinicaltrials.gov reports that this clinical trial is open and presently recruiting individuals. The study was originally posted on 2018-07-09 with the most recent update being on 2022-10-19."
