About this study

Official title: Novel Use of Extrapleural Autologous Blood Injection in CT-guided Percutaneous Lung Biopsy and Its Comparison to Intraparenchymal Autologous Blood Patch Injection: A Single-center, Prospective, Randomized, and Controlled Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the rate of iatrogenic pneumothorax and the need for intervention with extrapleural autologous blood injection (EPABI) along with intraparenchymal autologous blood patch injection (IABPI) or IABPI-alone in CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy.

Read the detailed description

The mechanism of pneumothorax is postulated to be due to the air leakage through the puncture hole when the needle is removed after the biopsy. However, pneumothorax may occur during the needle insertion as the visceral pleura is punctured or during the biopsy procedure before needle removal. Prevent such leakage, the investigators planned to inject autologous blood into the extrapleural space to prevent pneumothorax during needle entry. The extrapleural autologous blood injection (EPABI) is expected to form a space-occupying hematoma pressing on visceral pleura as a sealant. The investigators planned to test the EPABI method in a prospective single-center randomized controlled study design.

What participants receive

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

  • EABPI plus IABPIOther

    If the patient was assigned to EPABI plus IABPI, while the extrapleural space was reached, ~ 15 ml of autologous blood was injected at the extrapleural space through the coaxial needle. Then the central stylet was reinserted and the coaxial needle was advanced into the lung parenchyma with a single puncture. The needle was stopped inside the proximal part of the target and the center needle was removed. A 20-G/16 cm fully-automated biopsy needle was introduced through the 19-G/13.8 cm coaxial needle and specimens were identically obtained. After specimens were collected, the biopsy needle was removed, and immediately the remaining autologous blood (~5 ml) was slowly injected through the coaxial needle as it was withdrawn through the parenchyma thus sealing the needle tract.

  • IABPI-aloneOther

    If the patient was assigned to IABPI-alone, after collecting the biopsy specimens, immediately the autologous blood (~5 ml) was slowly injected through the coaxial needle as it was withdrawn through the parenchyma thus sealing the needle tract.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EABPI plus IABPI and IABPI-alone in people with Lung Biopsy, run by Namik Kemal University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 7 inclusion and 4 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 9 Jun 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

To evaluate the rate of iatrogenic pneumothorax and the need for intervention with extrapleural autologous blood injection (EPABI) (time frame: 1 years). 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 9 Jun 2020.
