Brief Summary

ABSTRACT Introduction: Invasively ventilated patients in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) experience significantly higher mortality compared to those in High income countries (HICs). Direct application of HIC strategies to LMICs maybe ineffective due to context-specific challenges. This study aims to leverage the Intensive Care Registry of Uganda (ICRU) to identify ICU structural and process-related modifiable factors that impact patient outcomes in a low income country. Methods: The MOTIVATE-ICU is a prospective multicentre observational study in invasively ventilated patients. It involves a registry-embedded component examining patient- and process-related factors and a cross-sectional survey on ICU organizational structures. Inclusion criteria encompass patients aged ≥ 15 years undergoing IMV in Ugandan ICUs. Primary outcomes are ICU mortality, ICU length of stay (LOS), and duration of ventilation. Secondary outcomes include ventilator-associated complications, non-pulmonary organ support. tTracheostomy outcomes will be explored in a pre-planned substudy. Factors potentially associated with outcomes will be categorized into two groups; non-modifiable factors and potentially modifiable. Non-modifiable factors will include patient-related factors like age, comorbidities and illness severity; potentially modifiable factors include processes of care (e.g. sedation levels) and ICU organizational structure (e.g. staffing patterns). Multilevel multivariable logistic regression will be utilized to study associations, with both patient and ICU level fixed effects considered. Ethics and Dissemination: Given its observational nature, this study seeks a waiver for patient individual informed consent. Data anonymization ensures patient privacy. Following the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki, relevant ethical approvals will be acquired. Study findings will be disseminated through conferences and peer-reviewed journals.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• ICU mortality

  Death at ICU discharge, or at 28 days after ICU admission, whichever occurs first.

  28 days

• ICU Length of Stay

  Number of days patients spend in the ICU. Measured per episode of ICU care. Calculated using the interval (measured in hours) between the date and time of ICU admission and the date and time of ICU discharge. Rounded to the nearest 1 decimal place.

  28 days

• Duration of mechanical ventilation

  The time between endotracheal intubation and successful extubation (in case of intermittent mechanical ventilation via a tracheostomy, every day a patient needs ventilation counts as one extra day, irrespective of the duration of ventilation on that specific day). In case of non-invasive ventilation, the duration will be assessed separated from the assessment of invasive ventilation.

  28 days

Secondary Outcomes (9)

• Duration of non-pulmonary organ support

  28 days

• ICU-Free days

  28 days

• Ventilator-free days

  28 days

• Ventilator-associated Pneumonia

  28 days

• Tracheobronchitis

  28 days

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 15 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients ≥15 years receiving invasive mechanical ventilation within the ICU

You may qualify if:

• Invasive mechanical ventilatory support initiated anywhere within the study hospital i.e., emergency room, normal ward or in the operating room, or in the ICU at any time during admission.

You may not qualify if:

• Successful extubations within two calendar days of intubation
• Admissions for end-of-life care and/or ICU palliative support
• Patients transferred from ICUs not participating in the study 24 hours after initiation of MV.
• Refusal or Withdrawal of consent
