Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Acute chest syndrome is a severe sickle cell disease complication in children requiring blood transfusion therapy to prevent acute respiratory failure and death. Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator that could reverse pulmonary vascular occlusion and restore normal oxygenation. The randomized trial will test that hypothesis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Nitric oxide by inhalation INOMAX
  • Drug: Placebo
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Acute chest syndrome is a severe sickle cell disease complication in children requiring blood transfusion therapy to prevent acute respiratory failure and death. Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator that could reverse pulmonary vascular occlusion and restore normal oxygenation. The randomized trial will test that hypothesis in a prospective randomized double-blind placebo controlled study. 50 children in two years will be included: 25 in each arm.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. We will observe the patient's transfusional needs under nitric oxide (MONOXYDE AZOTE) versus placebo inhaled therapy to evaluate inhaled MOXYDE AZOTE efficacy on improving oxygenation (transcutaneous O2 superior to 92% ) [Oxygenation improvement (transcutaneous O2 superior to 92%) after Gas inhalation will be evaluate 2hours after inclusion and therafter every 2 hours until 12 hours therapy and then every six hours for 3days and then once a day till hospital discharge]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of blood transfusions and total transfused blood volume [7 to 10 days]

    2. Quantity of Pain-killer drugs required and particularly OPIOIDS [7 to 10 days]

    3. Duration of Nitric oxide therapy [after 7 to 10 days]

    4. Duration of OXYGENOTHERAPY [7 to 10 days]
