NCT02627742

Brief Summary

To determine if a therapy regimen including treatment with The MetaNeb® System had a positive impact on the rate of pulmonary complications related to atelectasis and/or secretion retention that occur in high risk post-operative patients. This is a non-randomized facility (or hospital) level pre-post intervention study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Significant Postoperative Pulmonary Complication Incidence.

    One or more of the following that occurs within seven (7) days of the post-surgical admission will be considered a Significant Postoperative Pulmonary Complication (PPC) * Patient requires prolonged mechanical ventilation (\> 24 hours from post-surgical admission) * Patient requires prolonged respiratory support for \> 24 hours from post-surgical admission * Diagnosis of pneumonia within seven (7) days * Readmission to ICU for pulmonary complications within seven (7) days of post-surgical hospital admission

    Within seven (7) days of the post-surgical admission

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Requirement for Invasive Mechanical Ventilation for > 48 Hours Within Seven (7) Days of the Post-surgical Hospital Admission

    7 days (From the time of post-surgical admission to the hospital through day 7 following the initial post-surgical admission)

  • Requirement for Respiratory Support > 48 Hours Within Seven (7) Days of the Post-surgical Hospital Admission

    7 days (From the time of post-surgical admission to the hospital through day 7 following the initial post-surgical admission)

  • Length of ICU Stay During Initial Hospital Stay

    Total days/hours until time of discharge from the hospital, up to 8 weeks

  • Length of Hospital Stay During Initial Hospital Stay

    Time of admission until time of discharge from the hospital, up to 8 weeks

  • Readmission to ICU and Transfers to Elevated Level of Care for Pulmonary Complications During Initial Hospital Stay

    during hospital stay, up to 8 weeks

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

METANEB

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive standard care with the addition of therapy with The MetaNeb® System.

Device: MetaNeb® System

Interventions

The treatment protocol used for Respiratory Care during the CHANGE IN PRACTICE period of the Study will be that prescribed by the patient's health care team in the routine standard care of each patient. With the exception of standard airway clearance and lung expansion procedures, other components of the patients respiratory care regimen will remain the same as during the standard therapy period, however the CHANGE IN PRACTICE will incorporate the use/treatment with The MetaNeb® System as an alternative to usual airway clearance and lung expansion procedures. Use of The MetaNeb® System will follow the labeling of the device.
