Trial summary

This trial studies how well radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound works in detecting the complete or partial collapse of the lung in patients undergoing peripheral bronchoscopy.

About this study

Official title: Prevalence and Location of Intra-Procedural Atelectasis Detected by Radial-Probe Endobronchial Ultrasound During Peripheral Bronchoscopy Under General Anesthesia

This trial studies how well radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound works in detecting the complete or partial collapse of the lung in patients undergoing peripheral bronchoscopy. Diagnostic procedures, such as radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound and bronchoscopy, use a thin, tube-like instrument inserted through the nose or mouth to view and take pictures of the inside of the trachea, air passages, and lungs.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis detected by radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) during peripheral bronchoscopy under general anesthesia.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To describe the most common locations for developing intraprocedural atelectasis detected by RP-EBUS.

II. To describe the proportion of evaluated bronchial segments per patient that are identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EBUS.

III. To identify patient and procedural characteristics that may predispose to the development of atelectasis.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo bronchoscopy per standard of care, RP-EBUS of the left and right lungs during bronchoscopy procedure, and RP-imaging over 3-5 minutes at the end of the bronchoscopy procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. New atelectasis for each segment

    Presence or absence of atelectasis within each of the aforementioned 8 segments will be determined using radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) in comparison with the most recent computed tomography (CT) performed < 4 weeks prior to the bronchoscopy. A segment will be identified as having a new atelectasis if there is an indication of solid- or semisolid-appearing lesion by RP-EBUS without a corresponding indication of solid tumor or atelectasis on the preoperative CT. Descriptive statistics (frequencies, proportions, means, standard deviations, and ranges) will be provided for patient characteristics. The proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EBUS and its 95% confidence interval will be estimated to accomplish the primary objective.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Atelectasis for each patient

    Patients with at least 1 segment containing a new atelectasis will be determined to have atelectasis. Patients without atelectasis within any of the 8 segments will be determined to not have atelectasis. The proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EUS and its 95% confidence interval will be estimated to accomplish the primary objective.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Common locations exhibiting atelectasis

    Locations of atelectasis will be summarized by a frequency table, allowing for multiple locations in the same patient.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Proportion of evaluated bronchial segments developing intraprocedural atelectasis

    The proportion of segments identified as developing atelectasis among all evaluated segments will be calculated for each patient, and the distribution of the proportion will be summarized by the mean, median, and range. We will compare patients with atelectasis and patients without atelectasis in terms of patient characteristics using a t-test or Wilcoxon test for continuous variables and Fisher's exact test or chi-squared test for categorical variables.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Patient characteristics associated with the presence of atelectasis

    To identify patient characteristics associated with the presence of atelectasis, logistic regression analysis will be used if the number of patients with atelectasis is at least 10. Due to a small sample size, multivariate logistic regression analysis may not be applied. A p-value of less than 0.05 will indicate statistical significance.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malignant Neoplasms of Respiratory and Intrathoracic Organs and Lung Neoplasm, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 13 Nov 2020. 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 United States. 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?

New atelectasis for each segment (time frame: Up to 3 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03523689, 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 13 Nov 2020.
