Trial summary

During one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing thoracic surgery, the persistent flow in the non-ventilated lung increases intrapulmonary shunt and decreases systemic arterial oxygenation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Iloprost on Arterial Oxygenation and Shunt Fraction During One-lung Ventilation for Lung Surgery

During one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing thoracic surgery, the persistent flow in the non-ventilated lung increases intrapulmonary shunt and decreases systemic arterial oxygenation. This prospective, randomized, double blind study was conducted to evaluate the effects of inhaled iloprost during one-lung ventilation on arterial oxygenation and shunt fraction during thoracic surgery.

Conditions
Lung Cancer
Being tested
Inhaled iloprost, Distilled water
Medical subject headings
Lung Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Inhaled iloprostDrug

    Study drug was inhaled to ventilated lung through a nebulized system in inspiratory limb after one-lung ventilation in the lateral decubitus position.

  • Distilled waterDrug

    Study drug was inhaled to ventilated lung through a nebulized system in inspiratory limb after one-lung ventilation in the lateral decubitus position.

What is being measured

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

  1. PaO2(partial pressure of arterial oxygen)

    ABGA

    Measured: 30 min after treatment

  2. Pulmonary shunt fraction

    Qs/Qt = (CcO2-CaO2) / (CcO2-CvO2)

    Measured: 30 min after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inhaled iloprost and Distilled water in people with Lung Cancer, run by Seoul St. Mary's Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 3 May 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

PaO2(partial pressure of arterial oxygen) (time frame: 30 min after treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 3 May 2019.
