NCT03346681 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: EARLY_PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2024-10-31

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We would study whether there is any measurable benefit of the administration of nebulized n-acetyl-cysteine to acute respiratory distress syndrome patients starting within 48 hours of intubation and mechanical ventilation.

Conditions

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

N-acetyl cysteine

The procedure involved would be the administration of N-acetylcysteine via nebulization, which would be administered to the patient by respiratory therapy in the dosage of 2 mL 20% solution acetylcysteine (or 4 mL of 10% solution) along with inhaled albuterol via endotracheal tube every six hours for 72 hours total. The control arm will have saline administered with the albuterol every six hours. Both arms will have additional bronchodilators administered as indicated clinically (bronchospasm, COPD, peak airway pressure elevation, etc.).
