About this study

Official title: Individualized Open Lung PEEP in Thoracic Surgery: A Prospective Multicenter Observational Study in 17 Spanish Hospitals

During thoracic surgical procedures, while ventilating with a protective tidal volume, an open lung approach consisting of a recruitment maneuver followed by an individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titrated to best respiratory system compliance (Open-lung PEEP, OL-PEEP) would decrease driving pressure. To test this hypothesis, we performed a multicenter observational study in 17 Spanish teaching hospitals of patients undergoing one lung ventilation (OLV). In addition, we analyzed the association between the driving pressure and the prevalence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), and finally the association between the individualized PEEP and relevant patient preoperative or intraoperative variables.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative pulmonary complications

    Atelectasis, acute respiratory failure, ARDS, pneumonia, reintubation, empyema, bronchospasm, pneumothorax, pneumonitis, bronchopleural fistula

    Measured: Postoperative. One week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Descriptive analysis of the open lung PEEP

    Open lung PEEP is the PEEP of best dynamic respiratory system compliance during a PEEP titration trial

    Measured: intraoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thoracic Surgery and Ventilation Therapy; Complications, run by Fundación para la Investigación del Hospital Clínico de Valencia.

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 1 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 7 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Postoperative pulmonary complications (time frame: Postoperative. One week). 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 7 Mar 2018.
