TERMINATED

ARrest RESpiraTory Failure From PNEUMONIA

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This research study seeks to establish the effectiveness of a combination of an inhaled corticosteroid and a beta agonist compared to placebo for the prevention of acute respiratory failure (ARF) in hospitalized patients with pneumonia and hypoxemia.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. Hospitalization for acute (defined as ≤ 14 days) onset of symptoms (cough, sputum production, or dyspnea), AND 2. Radiographic evidence of pneumonia by chest radiograph or CT scan, AND 3. One of the following:
  2. 1. Evidence of systemic inflammation (temperature \< 35◦C or \> 38◦C OR WBC \> or \< upper or lower limits for site OR procalcitonin \> 0.5 mcg/L), OR
  3. 2. Known current immunosuppression preventing inflammatory response, OR
  4. 3. High clinical suspicion of pneumonia with microbiologic confirmation of infection. Microbiologic confirmation will include a positive nasal swab for a known respiratory virus; a sputum culture growing a likely pathogenic organism plus moderate or greater WBCs (not required for immunocompromised patients); or a positive blood culture with a likely pathogenic organism - e.g., ¼ vials with S. Epidermidis would NOT qualify)
  1. * Inability to randomize within 48 hours of presentation to enrolling hospital (randomization beyond 24 hours will be limited to patients with persistent hypoxemia defined by an SpO2 \< 97% while on \> 3L/min O2)
  2. * Intubation (or impending intubation) prior to enrollment
  3. * A condition requiring inhaled corticosteroids or beta-agonists (patients receiving inhaled beta-agonists in the ED without an established indication will be eligible if treating clinician is willing to discontinue subsequent treatments)
  4. * Chronic systemic steroid therapy equivalent to \>10 mg prednisone
  5. * COVID-19 positive patients receiving \> 6 mg dexamethasone (40 mg prednisone equivalent dose) except for stress dose steroids for septic shock
  6. * Non-COVID-19 pneumonia patients receiving systemic steroid \> 10 mg prednisone except for stress dose steroids for septic shock
  7. * Chronic lung or neuromuscular disease requiring daytime oxygen or mechanical ventilation other than for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or obesity hypoventilation syndrome
  8. * Not anticipated to survive \> 48 hours or not expected to require \> 48 hours of hospitalization
  9. * Contraindication or allergy to inhaled corticosteroids or beta-agonists
  10. * Patients with heart rate \> 130 bpm, ventricular tachycardia or new supraventricular tachycardia within last 4 hours will be potentially eligible for enrollment after the condition has resolved
  11. * Patients with K+ \< 3.0 will be potentially eligible for enrollment after the condition has resolved
  12. * Patient not committed to full support other than intubation or resuscitation (i.e., DNR/DNI status allowed)
  13. * Pregnancy
  14. * Incarcerated individual
  15. * Physician refusal of consent to protocol
  16. * Patient/surrogate refusal of consent to protocol
