Clinical Trial Summary

This is an observational, proof-of-concept, feasibility study that aims to evaluate the feasibility of a monitoring system that integrates clinical data, high-resolution waveforms from the bedside monitor, regional oxygenation (via cerebral and splanchnic near-infrared spectroscopy), and regional ventilation (via electrical impedance tomography) from 20 extremely low birth weight infants at high-risk of reintubation.


Clinical Trial Description

The primary aim of this proof-of-concept study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptance of a monitoring system that integrates clinical data and biomedical signals from multiple modalities in a cohort of extremely preterm infants at high-risk of clinical instability on non-invasive respiratory support. Secondary aims will be to longitudinally describe peripheral oxygen saturation, cerebral oxygen saturation, splanchnic oxygen saturation and regional lung ventilation in extremely low birth weight infants with or without reintubation during the 7 days post extubation. The application of this multimodal monitoring approach using both clinical and physiological data during the postextubation period will help by making the assessment of clinical stability more comprehensive, more objective, more accurate, more standardized, and more reflective of important end-organ function. Thus, the proposed multimodal monitoring could lead to more informed decisions about reintubation and more individualized treatment plans during this critical period, hence potentially leading to better outcomes. ;
