Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates a pharmacological intervention to relieve dyspnea in intensive care unit patients. Indeed, opioids can be particularly beneficial since 1) dyspnea and pain share many similarities, 2) the benefit of opioids on dyspnea has been clearly demonstrated in other populations. However, to date, data regarding the impact of morphine on dyspnea in intensive care unit patients admitted for acute respiratory failure are scarce. There may be a reluctance of physicians to prescribe opioids that is not scientifically justified. The study will focus on patient reported outcome (PRO) criteria. The ultimate goal of this pilot study is to design the protocol of a future pragmatic trial.


Clinical Trial Description

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, single-center phase 2 pilot study.The experimental group will receive an intravenous titration of morphine followed by a subcutaneous administration of morphine hydrochloride for 24 hours according to a predefined protocol. The control group will receive placebo NaCl 0.9% administered according to the same protocol as the experimental arm Patients will be randomized 1:1 between low-dose titrated morphine (experimental group) and placebo (control group). The other treatments will be similar in both groups, according to the protocol and the recommendations. Severe dyspnea will be assessed for regularly Patients will be followed for 48 hours: 24-hour treatment duration, evaluation of primary endpoint for first 24 hours, collection of adverse events for 48 hours. ;
