About this study

The study is prospectively conducted on 190 patients aged between 20 and 85 years, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I - III, undergoing one-lung ventilation for thoracic surgery. Patients were randomly allocated into either control group (n = 95) or experimental group (n = 95) by a computerized randomization table. The size of endobronchial tube is decided based on the diameter of left main bronchus measured on the CT finding of patients. After induction of general anesthesia, in patients assigned to control group, endobronchial intubation is performed using conventional technique with left-sided double-lumen endobronchial tube (Shiley®, Covidien, Mansfield, MA, USA). In experimental group, patients are intubated with novel double-lumen endobronchial tube (Ankor®,Insung Medical, Wonjou, S. Korea). During intubation, the carina cuff of Ankor® is inflated after the tube is rotated 90º toward the left. The tube is advanced until slight resistance is felt, then the carina cuff is deflated. In both groups, fiberoptic bronchoscope is performed to evaluate the position of endobronchial tube after intubation. If endobronchial tube is not in optimal position, the depth of tube is corrected to optimal position under guidance of fiberoptic bronchoscope. Airway injury is confirmed using fiberoptic bronchoscope before extubation. The success of endobronchial intubation, position of endobronchial tube, the corrected depth of endobronchial tube, time consumption for endobronchial intubation and complication of intubation such as airway injury, pain, and hoarseness are compared between two groups.

What participants receive

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

  • Endobronchial intubationDevice

    1. In control group, endobronchial intubation is performed using conventional technique with left-sided double-lumen endobronchial tube(Shiley®). The tube is introduced into the glottis via direct laryngoscopy. After the tube tip passes the vocal cord, the tube is rotated 90º toward the left. The tube is advanced according to the depth(cm) of the tube calculated by the height of patient(12.5+0.1*height). Afterwards, the depth of the tube is adjusted by the compliance of both lung.
    2. In experimental group, patients are intubated with novel double-lumen endobronchial tube(Ankor®). The tube is introduced into the glottis via direct laryngoscopy. After the tube tip passes the vocal cord, the tube is rotated 90º toward the left. Once the carinal cuff of the tube is passed through the vocal cord of patients, the carinal cuff is inflated with 5-8ml of air. The tube is advanced until the tube stops itself at some point along the tracheobronchial tree. And then the carinal cuff is deflated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Optimal position of double-lumen endobronchial tube

    On fiberoptic bronchoscopic view after intubation, optimal position of double-lumen endobronchial tube is defined when the bronchial cuff of the tube is immediately below the tracheal carina and there is a clear view of the left subcarina with unobstructed left upper and lower bronchi.

    Measured: 1 day (after intubation)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The corrected depth of endobronchial tube

    The corrected depth of endobronchial tube is defined as the difference between the depth of endobronchial tube before and after the depth of tube is corrected to optimal position under guidance of fiberoptic.

    Measured: 1 day (after intubation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endobronchial intubation in people with Intubation Tube(Intubation Using Double Lumen Endobronchial Tube), run by Yonsei University 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 May 2019. 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?

Optimal position of double-lumen endobronchial tube (time frame: 1 day (after intubation)). 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 20 May 2019.
