About this study

Official title: Study of Cost-effectiveness of the Airway Management and Pulmonary Isolation in Thoracic Surgery Using Standard Double Lumen Tubes vs VivaSight-DL

The investigators want to carry out a study to determine the role of Doble Lumen Tubes with built-in camera Viva Sight-DL (VDLT) in thoracic surgery. With this study the investigators want to study and enlarge the information in the different surgical approaches, including robotic surgery.

The objective of this study is report a single-center experience using individual data costs to compare the cost effectiveness of VDLT Viva Sight versus the use of conventional Doble Lumen Tubes (cDLT) together with fiberoptic bronchoscope in patients undergoing thoracic surgery, in order to generate information for future decision making related to both devices.

Read the detailed description

The investigators want to carry out a comparative clinical study on the use of conventional double-lumen endobronchial tubes (cDLT) or video double-lumen endobronquial tubes Vivasight DL (VDLT) during intubation in thoracic lung resection surgery, to study their possible advantages and disadvantages.

This will be a prospective, single-center cohort study of Thoracic Surgery in which the VivaSight-DL (n = 55 patients) or conventional DLT (n = 55 patients) is used for lung isolation in elderly patients (≥ 18 years), thoracic surgery procedures of the "lung resection" type: wedge resection, transegmental resection, lobectomy, bilobectomy or pneumectomy by the different surgical approaches: VATS, robotic surgery and thoracotomy.

The objective of this study is to find out if the use of VDLT reduces the need for fiberoptic bronchoscope (FBS) to verify the positioning of the endobronchial tube during intubation and intraoperatively. Reducing the need for FBS could improve the quality of care provided to the patient and reduce costs to the hospital.

What is being measured

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

  1. VDLT reduces the use of fiberoptic bronchoscope

    Determine if the use of VivaSight-DL® for lung isolation during lung resections is associated with less need for the use of fiberoptic bronchoscope to check the patient's airway during Thoracic Surgery compared to a conventional double-lumen tube.The cases where VDLT is used and the fiberoptic bronchoscope is necessary will be quantified.

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Costs associated with the use of VDLT

    • Cost of airway material: includes the use of cDLT as well as the use or not of fiberoptic bronchoscope. The costs of maintenance and cleaning of the same will be included.
    • Cost of the surgical intervention taking the cost / minute of thoracic surgery. Surgeon and surgical assistant, an anesthesiologist, three nurses, a clinic assistant and a caretaker work in these operating rooms. These last two professionals are shared with other operating rooms in the surgical area.
    • Cost of stays in hospitalization room / ICU.

    Measured: 4 years

  3. Costs associated with the use of cDLT and fiberoptic bronchoscope

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brief Description of Focus of Study Instead, run by Hospital General Valencia at 1 site in Spain.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2023. 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 Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ruth Martinez Plumed, Medicine (34652678215, ruth.martinez.plumed@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

VDLT reduces the use of fiberoptic bronchoscope (time frame: 4 years). The study lists 3 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 18 Nov 2023.
