Trial summary

Intraoperative absorption atelectasis is associated with decreased lung compliance, impaired oxygenation, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and lung injury. The alveolar recruitment maneuver (RM) with positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) has been advocated as efficient for absorption atelectasis treatment. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Effect of High Versus Low Fraction of Inspired Oxygen During Alveolar Recruitment on Absorption Atelectasis in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery Patients With Atelectasis

Intraoperative absorption atelectasis is associated with decreased lung compliance, impaired oxygenation, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and lung injury.

The alveolar recruitment maneuver (RM) with positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) has been advocated as efficient for absorption atelectasis treatment.

During general anesthesia, absorption atelectasis reportedly occurs in most patients especially during laparoscopic surgery, the increased abdominal pressure of capnoperitoneum may shift the diaphragm cranially and decrease respiratory compliance

Read the detailed description

The incidence of obesity (defined by a body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m2) is increasing worldwide. In selected individuals, bariatric surgery may offer means of achieving long-term weight loss, improved health, and healthcare cost reduction. Physiological changes that occur because of obesity and general anesthesia predispose to respiratory complications following bariatric surgery.

Obesity affects many respiratory functions, including, among others, a reduction in functional residual capacity, an increase in airway resistance, and a high level of ventilation-perfusion mismatch. The combination of obesity and postoperative respiratory muscle dysfunction could promote respiratory failure.

Absorption atelectasis occurs in most patients, typically due to absorption of gas, compression of the lung tissue, and impairment of surfactant function. Additionally, during laparoscopic surgery, the increased abdominal pressure of capnoperitoneum may shift the diaphragm cranially and decrease respiratory compliance.

Compression of basal lung regions due to a stiffened diaphragm would accelerate the formation of absorption atelectasis that was already initiated during anesthesia induction.

Such deterioration is associated with pulmonary densities revealed by computed tomography. In addition to physiologic impairment, atelectasis could contribute to perioperative lung injury and PPC.

The RM with PEEP has been advocated as efficient for atelectasis treatment. Reports on the impact of FiO2 during RM on atelectasis development are rare, and have not limited FiO2 to the RM per se.

While RM with high FiO2 can improve oxygenation rapidly, there is a greater possibility of absorption atelectasis occurring.

Diagnostic ultrasonography is the only clinical imaging technology in use that does not depend on electromagnetic radiation. Lung ultrasonography can be considered an attractive complementary diagnostic tool and one of the most promising techniques (Daabis et al., 2014). Therefore, Lung ultrasonography is a safe and cheap tool used during the perioperative period and to detect intraoperative respiratory complications resulting from absorption atelectasis.

The modified Lung Ultrasound Score (LUSS) system involves examination of all intercostal spaces: each hemi-thorax is divided into six regions: 2 anterior, 2 lateral and 2 posterior with four longitudinal lines and one axial line [figure 1 (B, C)]. Each region score shows sufficient sensitivity to detect loss of aeration during laparoscopic surgery. The degree of de-aeration rated from 0 to 3 (zero for no atelectasis and 3 for complete atelectasis ) defining substantial atelectasis as a score of 2 or 3 assigned to any region

What participants receive

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

  • High versus Low Fraction of Inspired OxygenProcedure or surgery

    to compare the effect of high oxygen fraction (FiO2 1.0) vs. low oxygen fraction (FiO2 0.4) on clinical outcome on intraoperative and postoperative atelectasis and PPC. We will asses the impact of FiO2, especially during RM, on atelectasis development, using modified LUSS in obese patients with atelectasis undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Modified Lung Ultrasound Score (LUSS)

    1. Modified LUSS at surgery completion compared to baseline preoperative modified LUSS, reflecting any aeration loss during general anesthesia.

    Measured: from 0 hours to 6 hours after the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High versus Low Fraction of Inspired Oxygen in people with Bariatric Surgery Candidate and Atelectasis, run by Egymedicalpedia at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 15 Jul 2024. 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 Egypt. 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?

Modified Lung Ultrasound Score (LUSS) (time frame: from 0 hours to 6 hours after the procedure). 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 15 Jul 2024.
