Trial summary

Tracheal stenosis is a serious complication following prolonged intubation. There are important differences in the challenges of airway management. This study consists of our anesthesia management experience in patients with unusual placement of tracheal stenosis due to Covid-19 undergoing tracheal dilatation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Airway Management During Unusual Tracheal Stenosis: A Clinical Feasibility Trial

Tracheal stenosis is a serious complication following prolonged intubation. There are important differences in the challenges of airway management. This study consists of our anesthesia management experience in patients with unusual placement of tracheal stenosis due to Covid-19 undergoing tracheal dilatation.

Read the detailed description

Tracheal stenosis is a serious complication following prolonged intubation. Two types of tracheal stenosis; Glottic and subglottic stenoses have common features in that they are challenging in terms of ventilation, oxygenation and intubation. However, there are important differences in the challenges of airway managementA thinner tube may be sufficient to overcome the airway difficulty in glottic stenoses. However, in subglottic tracheal stenosis, a thinner tube may not be conveyed to the distal of the stenosis. As a result, adequate ventilation and oxygenation may not be provided with an intubation tube placed proximal to the trachea. This study consists of our anesthesia management experience in patients with unusual placement of tracheal stenosis due to Covid-19 undergoing tracheal dilatation.

What is being measured

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

  1. PCO2

    blood partial pressure of carbondioxide

    Measured: PCO2 value at baseline just before entubation, peroperative 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes after induction, and before the extubation through surgery completion

  2. PO2

    blood partial pressure of oxygen

    Measured: PO2 value at baseline just before entubation, peroperative 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes after induction, and before the extubation through surgery completion

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. EtCO2

    end-tidal carbondioxide measurement

    Measured: EtCO2 value at baseline just before entubation, peroperative 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes after induction, and before the extubation through surgery completion

  2. length of intubation due to Covid-19 Pnomonia

    time from intubation to extubation in ICU

    Measured: postoperative period (up to 1 year)

  3. sPO2

    peripheral oxygen saturation

    Measured: SPO2 value at baseline, peroperative 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes after induction, and before the extubation through surgery completion

  4. Myers-Cotton grading scale (1/2/3)

    The grade of tracheal stenosis

    Measured: before the surgery

  5. VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) score (between 0 to 10 points)

    surgeons' satisfaction(VAS 0=the worst view, 10= the best view)

    Measured: during surgery through surgery completion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Tracheal Stenosis, run by Istanbul University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

PCO2 (time frame: PCO2 value at baseline just before entubation, peroperative 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes after induction, and before the extubation through surgery completion). 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 16 Sep 2022.
