AirGo™ Respiratory Monitoring in Lung Resection
A study testing AirGoTM system in people with Respiratory Monitoring and Thoracic Surgery, run by Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo di Pavia at 1 site in Italy.
Trial summary
Patients undergoing lung resection surgery may experience changes in respiratory function during the perioperative period. Current monitoring methods provide important clinical information but are often limited to specific time points and may not allow continuous assessment of ventilation. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Perioperative Real-time Respiratory Assessment in Lung Resections With a New Device: the AirGoTM System
Patients undergoing lung resection surgery may experience changes in respiratory function during the perioperative period. Current monitoring methods provide important clinical information but are often limited to specific time points and may not allow continuous assessment of ventilation. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of the AirGo™ wearable respiratory monitoring system in patients undergoing anatomical lung resection (lobectomy or segmentectomy). AirGo™ is a non-invasive, CE-marked device that continuously measures respiratory parameters, including minute ventilation and respiratory rate, through a chest-worn sensor. Participants will wear the AirGo™ device before surgery and during the postoperative period. Respiratory parameters collected by AirGo™ will be analyzed at predefined time points and compared with standard clinical monitoring methods routinely used in postoperative care, including pulse oximetry and telemetry. The primary objective is to assess changes in mean minute ventilation from the preoperative period to the first postoperative day. Secondary objectives include evaluating perioperative respiratory trends, patient comfort and compliance with the device, and the agreement between AirGo™ measurements and standard monitoring systems. The results of this study may help determine whether continuous non-invasive respiratory monitoring can improve the assessment and management of patients undergoing lung surgery.

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

Difference in mean minute ventilation (L/min), measured by the AirGo™ system during a 60-minute resting recording, between the preoperative assessment and the first postoperative day.
Measured: From preoperative baseline to the first postoperative day
Secondary outcomes (5)
Change in Mean Minute Ventilation Over Perioperative Timepoints
Change in mean minute ventilation (L/min) measured by the AirGo™ system at preoperative baseline, first postoperative day, second postoperative day, and one month after surgery
Measured: Preoperative baseline, first postoperative day, second postoperative day, and one month after intervention
Change in Mean Resting Respiratory Rate
Change in mean resting respiratory rate (breaths/min) measured by continuous AirGo™ monitoring at preoperative baseline, first postoperative day, second postoperative day, and one month after surgery.
Measured: Preoperative baseline, first postoperative day, second postoperative day, and one month after intervention
Patient-Reported Comfort With AirGo™ Monitoring
Patient-reported comfort during AirGo™ monitoring assessed using a standardized Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)
Measured: During the postoperative period
Agreement Between AirGo™ and Standard Postoperative Monitoring for Respiratory Rate
Agreement between respiratory rate measured by the AirGo™ system and respiratory rate obtained from standard postoperative monitoring, including pulse oximetry and telemetry, during overlapping observation periods.
Measured: During the postoperative monitoring period on postoperative days 1 and 2
AirGo™ Device-Related Adverse Events
Number of participants experiencing device-related adverse events, including skin irritation, discomfort, interference with surgical wounds, and premature discontinuation of monitoring.
Measured: From device application through 1 month after intervention

Clinical summary

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of the AirGo™ wearable respiratory monitoring system in patients undergoing anatomical lung resection (lobectomy or segmentectomy). AirGo™ is a non-invasive, CE-marked device that continuously measures respiratory parameters, including minute ventilation and respiratory rate, through a chest-worn sensor.

Respiratory parameters collected by AirGo™ will be analyzed at predefined time points and compared with standard clinical monitoring methods routinely used in postoperative care, including pulse oximetry and telemetry. The primary objective is to assess changes in mean minute ventilation from the preoperative period to the first postoperative day. Secondary objectives include evaluating perioperative respiratory trends, patient comfort and compliance with the device, and the agreement between AirGo™ measurements and standard monitoring systems. The results of this study may help determine whether continuous non-invasive respiratory monitoring can improve the assessment and management of patients undergoing lung surgery.
