Trial summary

Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) was revealed to prolong apneic time with a slow increase in carbon dioxide; thus, has been used for preoxygenation in patients with difficult airways or requiring rapid sequence induction in general anesthesia.

About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of Transnasal Humidified Rapid-insufflation Ventilatory Exchange in Patients Undergoing Laryngeal Microsurgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) was revealed to prolong apneic time with a slow increase in carbon dioxide; thus, has been used for preoxygenation in patients with difficult airways or requiring rapid sequence induction in general anesthesia.

However, in patients undergoing hypopharyngeal and laryngo-tracheal surgery, THRIVE during operation can be advantageous by allowing tubeless surgical field with sufficient oxygenation.

Therefore, the investigators conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of THRIVE on prolonged apneic time with enhanced surgical conditions in patients with laryngeal microsurgery.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing laryngeal microsurgery will be randomized into either intubation group or THRIVE group.

On arriving operating room, the patients will be preoxygenated by facemask or high flow nasal cannula with 100% oxygen for 3 minutes according to the allocated group. After inducing general anesthesia, patients in intubation group will be oxygenated by endotracheal tube, while patients in THRIVE group will be oxygenated by high flow nasal cannula with flow rate of 70L/min. During the surgery, the endotracheal tube can be removed and reintubated in intubation group patients to provide surgical field by a surgeon, respectively.

The monitored pulse oximetry, oxygen reserve index, and transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide will be recorded during surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • endotracheal intubationProcedure or surgery

    After preoxygenation with FiO2 1.0 and flow rate of 8 L/min for 3 minutes, the enrolled patients will be intubated with endotracheal tube and maintained oxygenation during surgery.

  • high flow nasal cannulaProcedure or surgery

    After preoxygenation with 100% oxygen through high flow nasal cannula for 3 minutes, the enrolled patients will be maintained intubationless oxygenation with flow rate of 70 L/min during surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing endotracheal intubation and high flow nasal cannula in people with Apneic Oxygenation, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 6 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 20 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 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. 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?

lowest oxygen saturation (time frame: from the time of starting laryngeal microsurgery till the end of the surgery). 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 NCT03629353, 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 20 Nov 2020.
