Optimization of Serum Phosphorus Level and Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation
Study Details
Study Description
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.

Detailed Description
Investigators will document patients' data in terms of independent variables and will randomly allocate the participants into one of the two study groups mentioned below.
-
Control group, defined by maintaining serum phosphorus level at ≥ 2.5 and < 3.5 mg/dL.
-
Intervention group, defined by optimization of serum phosphorus P to ≥ 3.5 and ≤ 4.5 mg/dL (Average 4mg/dL).
Regression and comparative statistics will be used to determine whether the optimum serum phosphorus level offers a benefit in terms of the duration of mechanical ventilation and the success of weaning from mechanical ventilation.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention group 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
Glycophos is a 20 ml vial of Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate containing 1 mmol glycerophosphate and 2 mmol sodium per ml
