What participants receive

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

  • Closure of bronchopleural fistula with Occlutech FigullaDevice

    Also called Bronchoscopic bronchopleural fistula closure with occluders

    Patients with bronchopleural fistulas will be submitted to a bronchoscopic procedure to deploy the cardiac septal defect occluder in the fistula traject.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
OccluderExperimentalThe patients with bronchopleural fistulas treated with bronchoscopic deployment of the cardiac septal defects occluder.
Receives: Device: Closure of bronchopleural fistula with Occlutech Figulla

What is being measured

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

  1. Closure of tracheobronchial fistulas with the Occlutech Figulla ASD N occluder

    The closure of the fistulas will be bronchoscopically observed at regular intervals: one week, three weeks, two months and six months.

    At the third months post intervention, a thorax CT scan will ascertain the correct position and stability of the device.

    Measured: 1 year
