Trial summary

One-lung ventilation, even in patients with healthy weight, causes an impairment in gas-exchange and respiratory mechanics. We hypothesized that oxygenation during the one-lung ventilation in obese patients would be improved by applying inverse-ratio ventilation, reducing atelectasis in the dependent lung and… Read more about this study

About this study

One-lung ventilation, even in patients with healthy weight, causes an impairment in gas-exchange and respiratory mechanics. We hypothesized that oxygenation during the one-lung ventilation in obese patients would be improved by applying inverse-ratio ventilation, reducing atelectasis in the dependent lung and resulting in reduced shunt. Because of the restrictive ventilatory effects of obesity, these patients often show a decreased functional residual capacity and decreased expiratory reserve volume, leading to an overall decreased tidal volume. These reduction leads to arterial hypoxemia, V-Q mismatch and Rt to Lt shunting. There are few studies on the one lung ventilation in obese patients about this prolonged inspiratory time ventilatory method. We plan to investigate the effect of this ventilation method in obese patients during one lung ventilation.

Being tested
I:E ratio 1:2, I:E ratio 1:1

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • I:E ratio 1:2Procedure or surgery

    We plan to evaluate the improvement on respiratory function with different ventilation I:E ratios (1:2 vs. 1:1) during the one-lung ventilation in an obese patients.

  • I:E ratio 1:1Procedure or surgery

    The purpose of our study is to compare the effects of minimal prolonged 1:1 IE ratioventilation on respiratory mechanics and oxygenation with conventional 1:2 IE ratio ventilation during OLV in obese patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes of the intrapulmonary shunt fraction and respiratory dynamic parameter

    shunt fraction Qs/Qt = (CcO2- CaO2)/(CcO2- CvO2), CcO2 = Hgb x 1.34 x ScO2 + PcO2 x 0.003, lung compliance : Compliance= Vt / Pplat, physiologic dead space : Vd/Vt = 1.14 x (PaCO2 - PETCO2)/PaCO2- 0.005

    Measured: T1 (10min before one lung ventibation) T2 (30min after one lung ventilation started)T3 (60min after one lung ventilation started) T4 (10min after two lung ventilation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing I:E ratio 1:2 and I:E ratio 1:1 in people with Obese Patients, One Lung Ventilation, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes of the intrapulmonary shunt fraction and respiratory dynamic parameter (time frame: T1 (10min before one lung ventibation) T2 (30min after one lung ventilation started)T3 (60min after one lung ventilation started) T4 (10min after two lung ventilation)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Mar 2019.
