Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: consecutive patients undergoing video-assisted surgery in a university hospital after inclusion and exclusion criteria have been met. Video-assisted surgery is defined by either classic laparoscopic surgery or robotic assisted surgery and the medical decision between the two types of surgery was performed by the attending surgeon prior to patient inclusion (unrelated to the study).

Who may be able to join

  • patients who underwent video-assisted surgery by either classic laparoscopy or robotic-assisted surgery.

Who cannot join

  • refusal to participate
  • conversion of surgery to laparotomy
  • need of vasopressure support
  • preoperative severe respiratory dysfunction

About this study

Official title: Effects of Pneumoperitoneum on Ventilatory Parameters in Patients Undergoing Video-assisted Surgery

The study investigates the effects of induced pneumoperitoneum during surgery on ventilatory parameters including peak inspiratory pressure, lung compliance, end-tidal CO2 at specific time-points: after induction of anaesthesia, after induction of surgery, one-hour and two-hours during surgery, end of surgery.

The effects of pneumoperitoneum are compared between two groups of patients: patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery and patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery. No intervention was performed in this study and the decision for type of surgery performed was made by the attending surgeon prior to study inclusion

Being tested
mechanical ventilation during video-assisted surgery

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04513262
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Video-assisted surgeryPatients undergoing video-assisted major abdominal surgery (VAS) in Trendelenburg position. The decision regarding the type of VAS was made by the attending surgeon prior to study inclusion. Twenty-five consecutive patients undergoing classic laparoscopic surgery and twenty-five patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery will be included in the study.
Receives: Procedure: mechanical ventilation during video-assisted surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. lung compliance

    change in lung compliance (mL/cmH2O) before and after induction of pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing VAS. Lung compliance is automatically calculated by the anesthesia machine during surgery. The study compares the magnitude in change associated with VAS.

    Measured: one-hour and two-hours after induction of pneumoperitoneum

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. arterial to end-tidal CO2 difference

    difference in arterial to end-tidal CO2 (mmHg) during surgery. Arterial blood samples and end-tidal CO2 were simultanously obtained at the specific time-points.

    Measured: one-hour and two-hours after induction of pneumoperitoneum

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Surgery--Complications, run by Institutul Clinic Fundeni at 1 site in Romania.

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 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 14 Aug 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 Romania. 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?

lung compliance (time frame: one-hour and two-hours after induction of pneumoperitoneum). 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 14 Aug 2020.
