About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of A Optimized Computed Tomography-guided Pulmonary Nodule Microcoil Localization Technique

In the early stage of the study, the CT-guided micro-coil locating method for pulmonary small nodules was optimized. This study will use a single set of target values non-randomized controlled trials to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the optimized pre-loaded micro-coil locating method in pulmonary small nodules.

Read the detailed description

A series of optimization and improvement measures were tried for the complications of the CT-guided micro-coil locating method. After discussion, the method of micro-coil pre-loaded in the puncture needle and sealed first, and then for subsequent locating has more advantageous. The method avoids the direct penetration of the puncture needle into the atmosphere during operation, and the operation is simpler. In vitro tests of isolated lung specimens and pre-tests of 9 clinical patients were carried out. The results showed that this method not only reduced the number of operators on site, but also had the tendency to shorten the operation time, reduce the incidence of pneumothorax, and improve the success rate. However, there is currently no rigorous scientific research to provide objective evidence for its safety and effectiveness.

Therefore, this study intends to use a single set of target values non-randomized controlled trials to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the optimized pre-loaded micro-coil locating method in pulmonary small nodules.

What participants receive

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

  • Optimized Localization TechniqueProcedure or surgery

    The small pulmonary nodules of the subjects will be located using an optimized pre-loaded microcoil puncture locating method.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of patients with pneumothorax.

    Pneumothorax definition: The chest radiograph is examined in the lateral position half an hour after positioning. If a clear pneumothorax line is seen on the chest radiograph, that is, the boundary line between the atrophic lung tissue and the pleural cavity, the pneumothorax is considered to occur.

    Measured: half an hour after positioning

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Positioning success rate

    The proportion of patients who are successfully positioned. The CT scan was used to determine that the micro-coil was positioned around the nodules in the lungs, and the push and recovery were smooth during the operation. The components did not fall off or tear during the process, which was successful.

    Measured: thoracoscopic surgery

  2. Operation time

    The time interval from the first scan to the last scan to confirm that the micro coil is left in place

    Measured: At the end of the positioning operation

  3. Number of operators

    Number of people involved in the positioning operation

    Measured: At the end of the positioning operation

  4. Proportion of patients with complications other than pneumothorax

    Measured: thoracoscopic surgery

Model description
This study intends to use a single set of target values for non-randomized controlled trials, and enrolled 120 subjects who met the inclusion criteria. The small pulmonary nodules were located using an optimized pre-loaded microcoil puncture positioning method. Observe the clinical indicators such as pneumothorax incidence rate, positioning success rate, other complication rate, operation time, and number of operators, and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the optimized CT-guided pulmonary nodule microcoil localization technique.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Optimized Localization Technique in people with Pulmonary Nodule, Solitary, run by Beijing Aerospace General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 5 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 16 Jun 2021. 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 China. 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?

The proportion of patients with pneumothorax. (time frame: half an hour after positioning). 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 16 Jun 2021.
