The Length of the Right Main Stem Bronchus Measured by Computerised Tomography as a Guide to Right-sided Double-lumen Tube Use

Read the detailed description

The double lumen tube (DLT) is the most popular way to isolate the lungs for thoracic surgery. The variable anatomy of the length of the right main stem bronchus seems to be the main reason clinicians are unwilling to use the right-sided DLT (R-DLT). The factors that could compromise the adequate ventilation of the right lung are mostly the variable length of the Right Main Stem Bronchus and the misalignment of the lateral orifice of the right-sided DLT in regard to the right upper lobe bronchus (RULB). The objectives of this study were to validate an alternative method to estimate the length of the Right Main Stem Bronchus by Computerised Tomography as a Guide to Right-sided Double-lumen Tube Use

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing the Length of Right Main Stem Bronchus in people with Therapeutic Procedural Complication, run by The First Hospital of Qinhuangdao 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 1 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 15 Feb 2023. 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 incidence of Uniblocker displacement (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04127903, 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 15 Feb 2023.
