Trial summary

In the case of robotic prostate cancer surgery under general anesthesia, the surgical posture is extreme Trendelenburg. Therefore, airway pressure is very high during mechanical ventilation, and there is a possibility of postoperative pulmonary complications. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Individualized PEEP Using Driving Pressure Ventilation on Postoperative Lung Complications in Robot Prostatectomy Surgery: Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial

In the case of robotic prostate cancer surgery under general anesthesia, the surgical posture is extreme Trendelenburg. Therefore, airway pressure is very high during mechanical ventilation, and there is a possibility of postoperative pulmonary complications. In order to prevent postoperative pulmonary complications, we tried to apply end-tidal pressure suitable for each individual to set the most tidal volume that can reduce the burden on the lungs during the perioperative period.

Read the detailed description

This study is conducted on patients who are scheduled for prostate surgery under general anesthesia with robot assistance. Subjects who consented to the consent form the day before the surgery were conducted with people aged 19 years or older who belonged to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II. In the drive group, the ventilator setting is fixed at tidal volume 6-8ml/kg and respiratory rate 15 breathes/min, and then the recruitment maneuver (RM, alveolar recruitment) is performed within the range that does not cause hemodynamic instability. After that, the PEEP is gradually raised from 5 cmH2O to 20 cmH2O. Driving pressure finds the lowest value. If there is no significant change even when the pressure change raises the PEEP, select the lowest PEEP. In the control group, PEEP is maintained in 5 cmH2O until the end of surgery. The primary outcome of the study is to confirm the presence or absence of postoperative pulmonary complications using Chest X-rays, vital signs, and blood tests. It is the individualized PEEP value as a secondary outcome. The related driving pressure and compliance will also be observed. In addition, anesthesia/surgical time, use of vasopressors, amount of blood loss, amount of fluid, and amount of urine will be measured.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post operative pulmonary complication(PPC)

    Post operative lung complication

    Measured: up to PostOperative Day(POD) #3

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Individual ventilatory setting

    PEEP in cmH2O at mechanical ventilation setting static lung compliance in liters/cmH2O at measured mechanical ventilation and calculated driving pressure in cmH20 Driving pressure (DP or ΔP) is defined as the distending pressure above the applied positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) required to generate tidal volume (VT)

    • C stat= tidal volume/ Driving pressure
    • Driving pressure= tidal volume/C stat

    Measured: during opertaion

  2. blood pressure(hypotension)

    Types and dosages of vasopressor agents used when the mean blood pressure is ≤ 60 mmHg.

    ** vasopressor agents: Ephedrine, phenylepherine, Norepinepherine

    • Ephedrine single intravenous injection: 5mg
    • phenylepherine single intravenous injection: 20mcg continueous infusion: mcg/kg/min at 100mcg/cc
    • Norepinepherine continueous infusion: mcg/kg/min at 10mcg/cc

    Measured: during opertaion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Driving pressure group in people with Lung Collapse, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 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 3 Apr 2025. 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 South Korea. 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?

Post operative pulmonary complication(PPC) (time frame: up to PostOperative Day(POD) #3). 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 3 Apr 2025.
