Trial summary

The main endpoint is physiological rehabilitation after VATS-L under early mobilization. The secondary endpoints are exploring the effect of early mobilization on postoperative physiology. Investigators hypothesis that early mobilization is clearly advantaged to advance the physiological recovery. Read more about this study

What participants receive

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

  • Early mobilizationBehavioural

    Mobilization as soon as patients can, which is not limited on walking

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)

    FEV1 is the amount of air you can force from your lungs in one second. Participants will be examed via spirometer.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

  2. Postoperative arterial oxygen saturation.

    Oxygen saturation is the fraction of oxygen-saturated hemoglobin relative to total hemoglobin (unsaturated + saturated) in the blood. Participants will be tested via oximeter.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The quantization of activity counts

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

  2. The quantization of pain

    The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (excruciating pain) is used to score postoperative pain.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

  3. length of stay in hospital

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

  4. Duration of chest tube

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

  5. Postoperative complications

    Pneumothorax, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumonia, empyema, bleeding, pulmonary embolism, prolong air leakage, re-intervention, re-surgery and re-admission will be recording specifically.

    Measured: up to 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

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 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 30 Dec 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 Denmark. 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?

Postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 3 days). 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 NCT04508270, which also lists 12 linked publications.

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 30 Dec 2020.
