NCT05682846

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the impact of serum phosphorus level optimization on weaning from mechanical ventilation in adult ICU patients in Alexandria University Hospitals. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does serum phosphorus level optimization affect the duration of mechanical ventilation?
  • Is serum phosphorus level optimization associated with successful weaning from mechanical ventilation? In critically ill patients, phosphorus supplementation is done using Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate solution.

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group

EXPERIMENTAL

Optimization of serum phosphorus to ≥ 3.5 and ≤ 4.5 mg/dL (Average 4mg/dL) using Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate solution. Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate 20ml solution (20 mmol glycerophosphate) dose will be given once daily till the target serum phosphorus level is achieved.

Drug: Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate solution

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Maintaining serum phosphorus level at ≥ 2.5 and \< 3.5 mg/dL.

Interventions

Glycophos is a 20 ml vial of Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate containing 1 mmol glycerophosphate and 2 mmol sodium per ml

Also known as: Glycophos
Intervention group
