About this study

Bronchofiberoscopy is a widespread invasive intervention in clinical practice with a number of diagnostic and therapeutic indications. The Clinic of Pulmonary Medicine in Debrecen carries out nearly 2000 examinations a year. The intervention is guided by the recommendation of the Vocational College for Pulmonary Medicine in 2005, but it does not contain a clear recommendation on the oxygen therapy used during the intervention. The Hungarian recommendation states that pulsoximetry is mandatory in bronchoscopy, but it does not contain information on the indications and the implementation of oxygen suplementation. The British Thoracic Society Guideline 2013 deals with the issue and makes the following statements:

  • patients should be monitored for oxygen saturation under bronchofiberoscopy
  • oxygen supplementation during the test is recommended if the patient's desaturation is significant (greater than 4% or less than 90%) and is over 1 minute
  • during the bronchoscopy, the occurrence of oxygen saturation decreases depending on the level of initial oxygen saturation, respiratory function, co-morbidity, sedation and the course of intervention.

The aim of our study is to investigate the frequency with which systemic hypoxia occurs during bronchoscopy, what factors may contribute to its development and how the level of cerebral oxygen saturation changes with systemic desaturation (in the case of NIRS, a 20% reduction from baseline is considered significant).

Read the detailed description

: Consecutive patients admitted to Bronchology Laboratory of Department of Pulmonology, University of Debrecen for flexible bronchoscopy were asked to participate in the study. After explaining the procedure in detail, all patients gave written informed consent.

The indication of flexible bronchoscopy was based in all cases on the results of medical history, physical examination, chest X-ray and/or chest CT scan, lung function tests and laboratory parameters including hemoglobin concentration, hemostasis variables as well as blood gas analysis when necessary.

Bronchoscopy (PENTAX EB-1975K) was performed after an at least 4-hour fasting period. The procedure was performed either in sitting or supine position after a topical administration of lidocaine 2% solution. Routine monitoring consisted of ECG, non-invasive blood pressure measurement, pulse oxymetry (finger probe). As an additional monitoring tool, near infrared monitoring sensor was placed to the forhead of the dominant hemisphere of patients for monitoring cerebral oxygen saturation. INVOS 5100 C cerebral oximeter (Covidien llc, 15 Hampshire Street, Mansfield, MA 02048 USA) was used for cerebral near infrared spectroscopy measurements.

Study groups in NCT04002609
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group A, Active comparatorPatients in this group did not receive any rountine oxygen supplementation during the procedure. Rescue supplemental oxygen through nasal cannual was provided if clinically significant desaturation could be observed during bronchoscopy. This significant desaturation was defined as systemic oxygen saturation ≤90% on pulsoxymetry or a relative change of ≥ 4% lasting for 1 minute. N=31 patients
Group B, Active comparatorSupplemental oxygen was provided for the patients through nasal cannula by a flow rate of 2 l/minutes throughout the procedure. N= 31 patients
Receives: Other: oxygen
Group C, Active comparatorSupplemental oxygen administration through nasal cannula by a flow rate of 4 l/minutes throughout the procedure. N= 30 patients
Receives: Other: oxygen

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of NIRS, run by University of Debrecen at 1 site in Hungary.

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 1 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 8 Jul 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 Hungary. 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?

systemic oxygen saturation (time frame: during bronchoscopy). 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 NCT04002609, 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 8 Jul 2019.
