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.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Sodium glycerophosphate pentahydrate solution
N/A

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
Other Names:
  • Glycophos
  • No Intervention: Control group

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

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. The duration of mechanical ventilation. [4 months]

      Comparison of mechanical ventilation days for patients in the two study groups.

    2. Weaning from mechanical ventilation. [4 months]

      Association of serum phosphorus level optimization to ≥ 3.5 and ≤ 4.5 mg/dL with success of weaning from mechanical ventilation.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Length of ICU stay [4 months]

      Change in the ICU length of stay in the intervention group with respect to the control group

    2. ICU mortality [4 months]

      Change in the ICU mortality in the intervention group with respect to the control group.

    3. Cost effectiveness analysis [4 months]

      Cost-effectiveness analysis of serum phosphorus level optimization.
