Trial summary

The inhaled Iloprost, approved for pulmonary hypertension, caused increase in oxygenation, and increase exercise tolerance in ARDS or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Inhaled iloprost has been researched in animal study, but not yet in human during one-lung ventilation. Read more about this study

About this study

The inhaled Iloprost, approved for pulmonary hypertension, caused increase in oxygenation, and increase exercise tolerance in ARDS or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Inhaled iloprost has been researched in animal study, but not yet in human during one-lung ventilation. The investigators will enroll patients who diagnosed moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, preoperative pulse oximetry (SpO2) of below 95% at room air or PaO2 /FiO2 ratio< 150 mmHg after initiating one-lung ventilation. The primary outcome is pulmonary oxygenation expressed by PaO2 /FiO2 ratio. And secondary outcome is assessment of cardiac function including Tei-index during nebulizing iloprost. The investigators hypothesized inhaled iloprost will improve oxygenation and decrease the FiO2 in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease during one-lung ventilation.

What participants receive

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

  • Inhaled iloprostDrug

    Nebulized agents (Iloprost or normal saline) were randomized by computer-generated randomization. The patients and anesthesiologist, who administered inhalation and conducted all this trial, were blinded to the medication allocation. An anesthesiologist, who responsible for preparation of medication, was the only person recognizing of the randomization code during trial.

    Enrolled patients were received 20 μg iloprost or placebo (norma saline). Iloprost was diluted in normal saline to obtain 2ml solution. Control group were inhaled comparable dose of normal saline. Iloprost or normal saline was inhaled through an ultrasonic nebulized system in inspiratory limb.

What is being measured

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

  1. PaO2 /FiO2 ratio during one-lung ventilation

    Measured: oxygenation changes from baseline (OLV), in 30 min after nebulizing iloprost or normal saline(ILO-30), in 60 min after nebulizing iloprost or normal saline(ILO-60), to after 20 min in postanaestheticcare unit(PACU)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. biventricular diastolic function

    E/e' estimated by tissue Doppler index

    Measured: biventricular diastolic function changes from baseline(baseline), 60 min after nebulizing iloprost or normal saline (ILO)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inhaled iloprost and normal saline (Saline 0.9%) in people with Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Yonsei University 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 21 Jun 2016. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

PaO2 /FiO2 ratio during one-lung ventilation (time frame: oxygenation changes from baseline (OLV), in 30 min after nebulizing iloprost or normal saline(ILO-30), in 60 min after nebulizing iloprost or normal saline(ILO-60), to after 20 min in postanaestheticcare unit(PACU)). 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 21 Jun 2016.
