Clinical Trial Summary

This research is a single-blinded, randomized controlled trial involving mechanically ventilated children in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Indonesia. Subjects were divided into two groups: intervention vs control group. Primary and secondary outcomes will be measure pre, during, and post treatment.

Description:

As of today, there is no sedation and ventilator weaning protocol in our PICU. Decision for sedation and ventilator weaning were based on attending physicians clinical judgement, which greatly varies among individual. Previous study on the use of these protocols showed a favorable outcome. We aim to assess the safety and effectiveness of this protocol in our PICU.

Subjects were recruited consecutively and randomized into intervention and control group.

• Control group: no protocol

Primary outcomes:

• FLACC score

• COMFORT score

• Ventilator days

Secondary outcomes:

• Self extubation

• PICU Length of stay

• Frequency of asynchrony

• NIRS value

• VIS score

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue

The greater number indicate greater pain score.	every 6 hours for the first 24 hours, once daily until extubation. This is the baseline. Once the patient was intubated, FLACC scoring of hour 0 will be assessed and noted.
Primary	Face, Leg, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score hour 6	Pain scoring. Each characteristic has 0-2 points with maximum 10 points. The greater number indicate greater pain score.	FLACC scoring of hour 6 will be measured 6 hours after hour 0 was measured. Hour 6 is measured from the time the subject was intubated.
Primary	Face, Leg, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score hour 12	Pain scoring. Each characteristic has 0-2 points with maximum 10 points. The greater number indicate greater pain score.	FLACC scoring of hour 12 will be measured 12 hours after hour 0 was measured. Hour 12 is measured from the time the subject was intubated.
Primary	Face, Leg, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score hour 18	Pain scoring. Each characteristic has 0-2 points with maximum 10 points. The greater number indicate greater pain score.	FLACC scoring of hour 18 will be measured 18 hours after hour 0 was measured. Hour 18 is measured from the time the subject was intubated.
Primary	Face, Leg, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score day 1 until extubation	Pain scoring. Each characteristic has 0-2 points with maximum 10 points. The greater number indicate greater pain score.	Scoring will be assessed every morning. If the subject was intubated at night, scoring for day 1 will be measured in the morning the day after tomorrow. Thereafter, the measurement will be taken every morning, 24 hour apart until the subject extubation.
Primary	Face, Leg, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score extubation day	Pain scoring. Each characteristic has 0-2 points with maximum 10 points. The greater number indicate greater pain score.	This score will be taken when the subject was stopped from all sedative and analgetics, just before extubation. Monitoring of extubation will be conducted until 56 days after initial intubation.
Primary	COMFORT score hour 0	Sedation scoring. It consists of 8 components. Each component has a score of 1-5, max score 40. Scores of 8 - 17 are over-sedated, scores between 17 - 26 are adequately sedated, and scores between 27 - 40 are under-sedated	This is the baseline. Once the patient was intubated, COMFORT scoring of hour 0 will be assessed and noted.
Primary	COMFORT score hour 6	Sedation scoring. It consists of 8 components. Each component has a score of 1-5, max score 40. Scores of 8 - 17 are over-sedated, scores between 17 - 26 are adequately sedated, and scores between 27 - 40 are under-sedated	COMFORT scoring of hour 6 will be measured 6 hours after hour 0 was measured. Hour 6 is measured from the time the subject was intubated.
Primary	COMFORT score hour 12	Sedation scoring. It consists of 8 components. Each component has a score of 1-5, max score 40. Scores of 8 - 17 are over-sedated, scores between 17 - 26 are adequately sedated, and scores between 27 - 40 are under-sedated	COMFORT scoring of hour 12 will be measured 12 hours after hour 0 was measured. Hour 12 is measured from the time the subject was intubated.
