About this study

Official title: Right Lateral Positioning of Postoperative Pediatric Cardiac Surgery: Effect on Arterial Oxygenation, Respiratory Mechanics, Hemodynamics, and Adverse Events

Directly following cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease; patients are not receiving routine turning every two hours to prevent pressure ulcers, because a negative influence on hemodynamic parameters is assumed. Investigators have suggested that lateral position may have clinically significant effects on oxygenation in cardiac surgery patients.

Read the detailed description

Sixty pediatric congenital heart disease patients were randomly assigned to two equal intervention groups

Being tested
Right lateral position (2 hours), Left lateral position (30 minutes), Supine position (30 minutes), Left lateral position (2 hours), Supine position (2 hours)
Keywords
Right lateral, Oxygenation, Cardiac, Congenital, Pediatric, Postoperative
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Right lateral position (2 hours)Procedure or surgery

    Repositioning the patients for two-hours period on the right lateral position

  • Left lateral position (30 minutes)Procedure or surgery

    Repositioning the patients for 30 minutes period on the left lateral position

  • Supine position (30 minutes)Procedure or surgery

    Repositioning the patients for 30 minutes period on the supine position

  • Left lateral position (2 hours)Procedure or surgery

    Repositioning the patients for two-hours period on the left lateral position

  • Supine position (2 hours)Procedure or surgery

    Repositioning the patients for two-hours period on supine position

What is being measured

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

  1. Arterial oxygenation

    The samples will be analyzed by a blood gas analyzer before and after changing position

    Measured: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Blood pressure

    Systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure " mm Hg"

    Measured: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days

  2. Heart rate

    Heart rate "beats per minute"

    Measured: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days

  3. Oxygen saturation

    Oxygen saturation %

    Measured: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days

  4. Respiratory rate

    Respiratory rate "rate per minute"

    Measured: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Right lateral position (2 hours), Left lateral position (30 minutes) and Supine position (30 minutes) in people with Heart Defects, Congenital, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact sayed abd-elshafy, MD (0020882413203, sayed_k_72@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Arterial oxygenation (time frame: Duration of Intensive Care Unit Admission after weaning from mechanical ventilation an expected average of 4 days). 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 9 Jul 2018.
