About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether flexion of bronchial tip of a left-sided double lumen endobronchial tube prevents tube misplacement to the right mainstem bronchus.

Being tested
Neutral shape of bronchial tip, Bent shape of bronchial tip

What participants receive

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

  • Neutral shape of bronchial tipDevice

    Intubation is performed without transforming the shape of the bonchial tipof a double lumen tube.

  • Bent shape of bronchial tipDevice

    Intubation is performed with the double lumen tube, which bronchial tip has been bent 45 degrees and maintained for 5 min.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Neutral shape of bronchial tip and Bent shape of bronchial tip in people with Double Lumen Tube Intubation, 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?

Number of participants with intubation to right mainstem bronchus (time frame: An expected average of 5minutes after intubation). 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.
