Die klinische Studie NCT05296096 (PROXIMUS) ist eine interventionsstudie zur Untersuchung von Muskelverlust, Protein, Mobilität, Pädiatrische ALL und hat den Status offene rekrutierung. Die Studie startete am 20. Februar 2023 und soll 72 Teilnehmer aufnehmen. Durchgeführt von Boston Children's Hospital ist der Abschluss für 30. Juni 2026 geplant. Die Daten von ClinicalTrials.gov wurden zuletzt am 5. Januar 2024 aktualisiert.
Kurzbeschreibung
The investigators have designed a 2-center, pilot feasibility, randomized controlled trial (PROXIMUS) to determine the feasibility and safety of a larger multi center, randomized open-label trial comparing high protein combined with individualized exercise vs. standard management during the acute phase of critical illness in children. The investigators aim to determine the impact of the intervention on preservation of muscle mass; and functional status at 1 month and 6 months after randomization.
Ausführliche Beschreibung
Mortality in U.S. pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) is improving, resulting in an increased focus on the quality of life of survivors who often have persistent physical, cognitive, and psychological impairments. Mechanically ventilated children in particular experience immobilization and poor nutrient intake, which results in muscle loss during acute illness. Early mobility and optimal nutrition during acute critical illness have been associated with muscle mass preservation and decreased duration of mechanical ventilation. These interventions may have the potential to decrease preventable PICU-acquired morbidities. However, the optimal doses and long-term benefits of these interventions have not been shown in randomized studies of critically ill PICU patients.

Thus, the investigators will test the first pediatric-specific, inter-professional intervention that integrates high protein and individualized exercise. This intervention was developed by a team of experts in the fields of nutrition, early mobility, rehabilitative exercise, muscle ultrasound (US), and functional outcomes.

The investigators propose a 2-center, pilot feasibility, randomized controlled trial (PROXIMUS) with the following Specific Aims:

  1. To determine the feasibility and safety of a randomized open-label trial comparing high protein combined with individualized exercise vs. standard management during the acute phase of critical illness in children;
  2. To determine the impact of high protein and individualized exercise on preservation of muscle mass; and
  3. To determine the impact of high protein and individualized exercise on functional status at 1 month and 6 months after randomization.

Outcomes: The investigators will assess feasibility with a composite measure that combines predetermined thresholds for screening, enrollment, allocation, and compliance/adherence with significant separation in doses of protein and exercise between the two arms. Safety will be defined as absence of difference in rates of new renal injury and exercise related adverse events.

Preservation of muscle mass will be assessed by percent daily change in US-measured quadriceps femoris muscle thickness (QFMT) during the PICU stay. The investigators will use a validated imaging protocol with high reliability and reproducibility. The investigators will also examine the difference in the normative standard scores (T-scores) between the two arms for the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory - Computer Adaptive Test (PEDI-CAT) assessment. Other secondary outcomes are Functional Status Scale, PedsQL, and muscle quality by US.

The investigators hypothesize that a larger trial will be feasible and safe. Patients randomized to the combined intervention will have lower decline in QFMT and better scores on PEDI-CAT assessment.

If proven feasible and safe, the PROXIMUS intervention has potential to profoundly change medical care in the PICU and substantially impact public health by improving long-term outcomes for the growing number of pediatric survivors of critical illness.

Aktives VergleichspräparatStandard protein and exercise
All enrolled patients randomized to this arm will receive a baseline nutrition and nurse-driven mobility pathway and other evidence-based bundled strategies as standard of care.
Protein Dosage and Rehabilitation Team Delivered Exercise Prescription
The dietitian and rehabilitation team will be consulted on enrollment and will assess the patient for nutritional and functional status using the institutional criteria and physical exam. The study dietitian will prescribe the protein goal based on the randomization assignment and age group. For the high protein arm, protein goals will be 3g/kg/day for ages 1-1yrs, and 2.4g/kg/day for ages greater than 12 years. The rehabilitation team will determine the appropriate highest level of mobility (HLM) for the day in collaboration with the medical team on morning rounds. The rehabilitation team will prescribe passive or active participation in two 30-minute HLM sessions, individualized to their baseline function and clinical status and/or restrictions.
ExperimentellHigh protein plus exercise
High protein nutrition: To achieve the prescribed age-appropriate high protein target, dietitians will use EN preferentially, or if EN is contraindicated, PN may be used. High-protein EN formulas and/or protein supplements (powder or liquid) will be added to formula/breast milk feedings or administered separately in divided bolus doses. Dietitians routinely employ and customize these solutions in their scope of practice. When EN is insufficient to meet protein targets, PN may be prescribed to make up the deficit on or after the end of PICU day 3. Energy and protein delivery adequacy (% of prescribed goal) will be monitored daily by the study team. Patients in this arm will also be prescribed the age-appropriate highest-level of mobility by the rehabilitation team with a goal of 30 minutes duration, twice daily.
