About this study

Official title: The Effect of Alveolar Recruitment Maneuver on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Laparoscopic Surgery

Investigating the effect of alveolar recruitment on the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complication in patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery

Read the detailed description

Comparing ventilation with PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure) to ventilation with PEEP and alveolar recruitment, we expect that alveolar recruitment will reduce the incidence of pulmonary complication in patients undergo laparoscopic surgery. Ventilation with only PEEP is generally not enough to reduce postoperative pulmonary complication effectively.

Being tested
Alveolar recruitment maneuver
Keywords
Alveolar recruitment, laparoscopic surgery

What participants receive

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

  • Alveolar recruitment maneuverProcedure or surgery

    Applying plateau pressure 30cmH₂O for 30 seconds to achieve alveolar inflation

Study groups in NCT03681236
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
No alveolar recruitment maneuverNo interventionApplying ventilation with tidal volume 6-8mL/kg (ideal body weight) and PEEP 5cmH₂O
Alveolar recruitment maneuverActive comparatorApplying ventilation with tidal volume 6-8mL/kg (ideal body weight) and PEEP 5cmH₂O. In addition to this, performing alveolar recruitment maneuver at 2 moments: before surgical incision, end of pneumoperitoneum
Receives: Procedure: Alveolar recruitment maneuver

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative pulmonary complication

    Performing lung ultrasound to evaluate if pulmonary complication is occurred

    Measured: Immediately after entering PACU

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Alveolar recruitment maneuver in people with Postoperative Pulmonary Complication, run by Seoul National University Bundang 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2022. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Sun Woo Nam, M.D (+82-31-787-7499, nsw116@snubh.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative pulmonary complication (time frame: Immediately after entering PACU). 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 NCT03681236, 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 12 May 2022.
