About this study

Define the capability and reliability of the PulmoVista® 500 (PV500) to detect changes in global and regional ventilation and perfusion.

Read the detailed description

The results of this study will help defining the capability and reliability of PulmoVista® 500 (PV500) to detect changes in both global and regional ventilation and perfusion. As this is a non-invasive, observational trial, neither a positive nor a negative impact on the actual study participants is expected. The results will, however, improve the knowledge about the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) technology and thus aid the use of this technology for the benefit of future patients.

    Monitoring of Ventilation and Perfusion with the PulmoVista 500 during clinical routine.

    No medical interventions required

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess regional distribution of pulmonary perfusion

    The capability of PulmoVista® 500 for assessing regional distribution of pulmonary perfusion based on pulsatility signals and based on indicator dilution and changes at different points in time during varying states of regional ventilation will be evaluated.

    Measured: within 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Assess hemodynamic parameter cardiac output

    The capability of PulmoVista® 500 for assessing cardiac output (relative values compared to reference given in l/min) will be explored.

    Measured: within 24 hours

  2. Assess hemodynamic parameter heart rate

    The capability of PulmoVista® 500 for assessing heart rate (1/min) will be explored.

    Measured: within 24 hours

  3. Assess hemodynamic parameter stroke volume variability

    The capability of PulmoVista® 500 for assessing stroke volume variability (relative value in % for 30 seconds compared to reference given in ml) will be explored.

    Measured: within 24 hours

  4. Assess oxygenation status

    The capability PulmoVista® 500 for assessing the oxygenation status from both the regional distribution of alveolar ventilation and the regional distribution of pulmonary perfusion will be explored.

    Measured: within 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mechanical Ventilation and Ventilation Perfusion Mismatch, run by Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA at 1 site in Germany.

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 8 inclusion and 13 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 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 Germany. 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?

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?

Assess regional distribution of pulmonary perfusion (time frame: within 24 hours). 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 6 Mar 2023.
