About this study

Official title: Diaphragmatic Dysfunction in Cardiac Surgery: Observational Study

Diaphragm dysfunction is common after cardiac surgery and may delay weaning from mechanical ventilation and cause respiratory distress.

The investigators' main objective is to determine the incidence of diaphragm dysfunction ( using the non-invasive ultrasonic method by calculating the inspiratory diaphragmatic thickening fraction) in a selected population of cardiac surgery patients during weaning from mechanical ventilation.

The second endpoints are to determine the associated risk factors to post-operative diaphragm weakness and the consequence on the patient outcome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diaphragm inspiratory thickening fraction

    Measured: At the begining of the spontaneous breathing trial (around 4hours after surgery)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Diaphragm dysfunction before surgery

    Measured: the day before surgery

  2. Severity score (Euroscore)

    Measured: the day before surgery

  3. extracorporeal circulation duration

    Measured: peroperative

  4. left ventricular ejection fraction

    Measured: the day before surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Surgery, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 23 Sep 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 France. 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?

Diaphragm inspiratory thickening fraction (time frame: At the begining of the spontaneous breathing trial (around 4hours after surgery)). 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 NCT02208479, 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 23 Sep 2015.
