About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the appropriate window setting of chest computed tomography to select a correct size of double-lumen endobronchial tube.

Being tested
Width 1000 HU/Level -450 HU, Width 400 HU/Level 25 HU

What participants receive

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

  • Width 1000 HU/Level -450 HUDevice

    Double-lumen tube size is selected according to the internal diameter of the left mainstem bronchus measured in the chest computed tomography with width 1000 HU and level -450 HU.

  • Width 400 HU/Level 25 HUDevice

    Double-lumen tube size is selected according to the internal diameter of the left mainstem bronchus measured in the chest computed tomography with width 400 HU and level 25 HU.

    Measured: An expected average of 10 min after double lumen tube intubation

  2. Air-tight seal below resting volume of bronchial cuff

    Measured: An expected average of 10 min after double lumen tube intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Width 1000 HU/Level -450 HU and Width 400 HU/Level 25 HU in people with Bronchial Cuff Volume at Air-tight Seal and Intracuff Cuff Pressure at Air-tighe Seal, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 22 May 2015. 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?

Air-leak at deflation of bronchial cuff (time frame: An expected average of 10 min after double lumen tube intubation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 May 2015.
