Trial summary

Using a protective ventilation strategy during general anesthesia from pre-oxygenation to emergence and selecting patients without risk of a difficult airway or intubation, a lower fraction of inspiratory oxygen (FIO2) can be used during extubation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Emergence From General Anesthesia With Laryngeal Mask Airway and Increased End-expiratory Pressure Using 30% Oxygen is as Safe as With 100% Oxygen But Reduces the Area of Post Operative Atelectasis.

Using a protective ventilation strategy during general anesthesia from pre-oxygenation to emergence and selecting patients without risk of a difficult airway or intubation, a lower fraction of inspiratory oxygen (FIO2) can be used during extubation. This might reduce the postoperative area of atelectasis without desaturations becoming more common.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Area of atelectasis

    The area of atelectasis is investigated by computed tomography of the lungs postoperatively

    Measured: 30 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2)

    SpO2 is continuously assessed postoperatively.

    Measured: 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 30% oxygen and 100% oxygen in people with Focus of Study is Postoperative Pulmonary Atelectacis, run by Region Västmanland at 1 site in Sweden.

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 6 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 17 Jan 2018. 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 Sweden. 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?

Area of atelectasis (time frame: 30 minutes). 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 NCT01779076, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jan 2018.
