After extubation, about 30% of these patients will experience respiratory distress due to upper airway obstruction (RDUAO), and about one-third of these cases will require re-intubation. Treating this RDUAO extends the length of stay in the PICU.\n\nPre-extubation corticosteroid therapy has been validated in adults as a preventive treatment for the occurrence of RDUAO. However, the lack of robust data in pediatrics has not allowed for a consensus on the benefit of its use in children on MV in the PICU.\n\nThe investigators propose to conduct a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the effect of intravenous dexamethasone (IV-DXM) before extubation on the incidence of RDUAO in children.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '6 Years', 'minimumAge': '2 Days', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients intubated with an endotracheal tube with or without a cuff,\n* Aged from 2 days post-term to 6 years,\n* On mechanical ventilation for at least 36 hours,\n\nAnd meeting the following extubation criteria:\n\n* Extubation planned by the medical team\n* Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ≤ 45%,\n* Oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximeter ≥ 95% or appropriate according to the pathology,\n* Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ≤ 8 cmH2O,\n* Peak inspiratory pressure ≤ 22 cmH2O or presence of cough.\n* Affiliated with a social security system,\n* Collection of informed consent from the parental authority, by both parents or the legal guardian(s).\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Refusal of consent by at least one parent or by the legal guardian(s),\n* Patient with a contraindication to IV-DXM:\n\n * Uncontrolled local or general infection,\n * Active viral infections (hepatitis, herpes, chickenpox, shingles),\n * Live vaccines,\n * Severe coagulation disorders,\n * Ongoing gastrointestinal bleeding,\n * Known hypersensitivity to IV-DXM or one of its excipients.\n* Patient participating in another interventional study involving human subjects or being in the exclusion period following a previous study involving human subjects, if applicable,\n* Patient receiving State Medical Aid,\n* Patient on long-term NIV,\n* Known upper airway pathology (UAP) before intubation or at the time of extubation,\n* History of UAP surgery within the month preceding inclusion,\n* Any situation deemed incompatible with the child's participation in the trial at the discretion of the investigating physician,\n* Decision to limit or stop therapeutic interventions.\n* Premature patients aged less than 40 weeks of gestation\n* Newborns aged less than 2 days after post-term birth"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06722118', 'acronym': 'COBEX-PED', 'briefTitle': 'Corticosteroids Before Extubation in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris'}, 'officialTitle': 'Corticoïdes Avant Extubation en réanimation pédiatrique : étude Multicentrique, Prospective, randomisée, Contre Placebo', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'APHP220674'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intravenous dexamethasone', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Dexamethasone IV']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Placebo', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Placebo']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Dexamethasone IV', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'IV-DXM 4mg/ml, injectable solution.
