Trial summary

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Thoracoscopic pulmonary resection is a prevalent management for early stage of lung cancer. Placement of chest tube is the standard procedure after surgery, which causes pain that cannot be ignored. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • 18<age<80;
  • ASA≤III
  • Patients with no clinically significant cardiac history, such as ischaemic heart disease, valvular heart disease, rhythm disturbances such as frequent atrial fibrillation or premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). Patients with significant cardiac history should be optimized according the relevant guidelines before surgery is considered.
  • Normal cardiopulmonary function [predicted forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1%) >50% and ejection fraction (EF) >50%of predicted value]. Resting blood gas analysis showing arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2)≥75 mmHg and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) <45 mmHg;

Who cannot join

  • History of ipsilateral surgery and other conditions which can result in extensive pleural adhesion;
  • Coagulopathy, hypoxemia (PaO2 <60 mmHg), hypercapnia [arterial carbon dioxide tension(PaCO2) >50 mmHg];
  • Significant cardiac history.

About this study

Official title: Effect of Muscle and Skin Fixation of Thoracic Drainage Tube on Postoperative Pain in Patients Undergoing Uniport Thoracoscopic Pulmonary Resection

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Thoracoscopic pulmonary resection is a prevalent management for early stage of lung cancer. Placement of chest tube is the standard procedure after surgery, which causes pain that cannot be ignored. The investigators aimed to determine whether a muscle layer fixation of thoracic drainage tube could release postoperative pain in patients with uniport thoracoscopic pulmonary resection compared with conventional skin fixation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative Pain

    The postoperative pain is assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Measured: From date of operation until the date of chest tube removal, assessed up to 7 days

  2. Pain-associated inflammatory factor

    the level of pain-associated inflammatory factor in blood, including CRP, PCT, IL6 and TNFa

    Measured: the first day after surgery

  3. Dosage of analgesics

    Dosage of analgesics

    Measured: From date of operation until the date of chest tube removal, assessed up to 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing muscle layer fixation of thoracic drainage tube in people with Lung Neoplasms and Lung Cancer, run by Daping Hospital and the Research Institute of Surgery of the Third Military Medical University at 1 site in China.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2022. 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 China. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative Pain (time frame: From date of operation until the date of chest tube removal, assessed up to 7 days). 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 4 Feb 2022.
