Trial summary

Prone position in spinal surgery can increase airway pressure and decrease dynamic lung compliance by a frame used for postural stabilization. Also, it can increase hemodynamic instability such as reduced blood pressure by aggravating cardiac index. Read more about this study

About this study

Prone position in spinal surgery can increase airway pressure and decrease dynamic lung compliance by a frame used for postural stabilization. Also, it can increase hemodynamic instability such as reduced blood pressure by aggravating cardiac index.

Former study shows pressure controlled ventilation on the pulmonary mechanics can improve alveolar use and oxygenation than volume controlled ventilation. The latter one means controlling a patient's breathing completely through tidal volume and set breathing rate. This could be useful for the patients not possible to breath by themselves because it guarantees the perfect breathing.

The pressure controlled ventilation is used when there is a possibility to change a patient's environment. The pressure will be maintained steadily, but volume and flux will be changed. That means through the pressure already set, the whole breathing will be maintained from the beginning to end. If a patient's resistance is increased, the volume will be decreased even though the way of blood pressure control is same. However, the tidal volume per minute can be controlled somewhat and barotrauma can be decreased by controlling respiratory rate. Through this study, we are expecting the pressure controlled ventilation in prone position can improve lung mechanics and oxygenation.

Being tested
volume control, pressure control

What participants receive

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

  • volume controlProcedure or surgery

    Volume controlled ventilation of tidal volume 10 ml/kg

  • pressure controlProcedure or surgery

    Pressure controlled ventilation for peak airway pressure to deliver tidal volume 10 ml/kg.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Herniation of Lumbar Vertebral Disc, run by Yonsei University 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 1 inclusion and 3 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 Feb 2012. 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?

peak airway pressure (time frame: 30 minutes after prone position). 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 Feb 2012.
