Trial summary

The number of lung biopsies has increased steadily in recent years. Pneumothorax is the most common complication of a lung biopsy and can occur during the procedure, immediately after the procedure or within a few hours (delayed pneumothorax). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Characteristics of Pneumothorax Associated With Transthoracic Percutaneous Lung Biopsy in Standard of Care: a Retrospective Study in 6 Centers

The number of lung biopsies has increased steadily in recent years. Pneumothorax is the most common complication of a lung biopsy and can occur during the procedure, immediately after the procedure or within a few hours (delayed pneumothorax). The incidence of pneumothorax in the literature is very different from one study to another: it has been reported to be from 9 to 54% in patients undergoing percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy. This difference of incidence could be explained by the absence of consensus for the definition of an iatrogenic pneumothorax.

The characteristics of pneumothorax and the management of patients with iatrogenic pneumothorax will be evaluated in different centres in a retrospective manner. This study will contribute to refining the criteria for defining pneumothorax occurring during lung biopsy and will provide a better understanding of the condition and its management.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Annual incidence rate of drainage in patients with pneumothorax related to lung biopsies

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pneumothorax Iatrogenic Postprocedural, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon at 6 sites in 3 countries.

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 1 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 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in France, Ireland, United Kingdom. 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?

Annual incidence rate of pneumothorax related to transthoracic lung biopsy on total number of lung biopsies (time frame: 3 months). 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 19 Sep 2024.
