What participants receive

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

  • Airseal TrocarDevice

    Also called trocar valveless

    28 patients are treated with the AirSeal insufflation and trocar system

  • conventional trocarDevice

    28 patients are treated with a conventional insufflation and trocar system

What is being measured

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

  1. change of dynamic compliance during surgery

    the variations of dynamic compliance during surgery are measured by mechanical ventilator and are expressed in ml/cmH2O

    Measured: 5min after induction,30min after trendelenburg position,1hours and 2hours after trendelenburg,30min and 1hour and 2hours after reduction Trendelenburg,5min after repositioning in supine position

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. change of peripheral oxygen saturation during surgery

    the variations of peripheral oxygen saturation during surgery are measured by multiparameter patient monitor and are expressed in %

    Measured: 5min after induction,30min after trendelenburg position,1hours and 2hours after trendelenburg,30min and 1hour and 2hours after reduction Trendelenburg,5min after repositioning in supine position,1h after extubation

  2. change of Peak Pressure during surgery

    the variations of peak pressure during surgery are measured by mechanical ventilator and are expressed in cmH2O

    Measured: 5min after induction,30min after trendelenburg position,1hours and 2hours after trendelenburg,30min and 1hour and 2hours after reduction Trendelenburg,5min after repositioning in supine position

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Airseal Trocar and conventional trocar in people with Mechanical Ventilation Pressure High, run by Regina Elena Cancer Institute at 1 site in Italy.

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 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 31 Aug 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 Italy. 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?

change of dynamic compliance during surgery (time frame: 5min after induction,30min after trendelenburg position,1hours and 2hours after trendelenburg,30min and 1hour and 2hours after reduction Trendelenburg,5min after repositioning in supine position). 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 NCT02506270, 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 31 Aug 2018.
