Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients with a preoperative reduced pulmonary function have a better preserved oxygenation capacity after open heart surgery, using either pulmonary perfusion or pulmoplegia compared with TAVI and the control-group with standard ECC (Extra Corporal Circulation).

About this study

Official title: Pulmonary Dysfunction After Open Heart Surgery: Randomized Clinical Trial With Focus on Lung-protective Interventions

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients with a preoperative reduced pulmonary function have a better preserved oxygenation capacity after open heart surgery, using either pulmonary perfusion or pulmoplegia compared with TAVI and the control-group with standard ECC (Extra Corporal Circulation).

Being tested
Perfusion of the lungs, HTK Custodiol, Standard ECC
Medical subject headings
Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive

What participants receive

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

  • Perfusion of the lungsProcedure or surgery

    Pulmonary perfusion with oxygenated blood during ECC.

  • HTK CustodiolDrug

    Pulmoplegia before ECC.

  • Standard ECCOther

    ECC after standard procedure

What is being measured

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

  1. Oxygenation Index

    To investigate whether patients with a preoperative reduced pulmonary function have a better preserved oxygenation index after open heart surgery, using either pulmonary perfusion or pulmoplegia compared with TAVI and the control-group with standard ECC (Extra Corporal Circulation).

    Measured: From pre operation until 24 hours post operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Perfusion of the lungs, HTK Custodiol and Standard ECC in people with Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 1 site in Denmark.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 25 Apr 2014. 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 Denmark. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Oxygenation Index (time frame: From pre operation until 24 hours post operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01614951, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 25 Apr 2014.
