About this study

Official title: Role of Transthoracic Lung Ultrasound in Confirmation of Correct Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube

to assess the efficacy of lung ultrasound versus conventional auscultation method and fiberoptic bronchoscopy in confirmation of double lumen tube position

Read the detailed description

Confirmation of double lumen tube position by auscultation followed fiberoptic bronchoscopy then lung ultrasound. After double lumen intubation all patient tube position will be confirmed using auscultation then fiberoptic bronchoscopy then lung ultrasound

Being tested
Lung auscultation, Fiberoptic bronchoscopy, Lung Ultrasound

What participants receive

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

  • Lung auscultationDiagnostic test

    auscultation of air entry through chest wal

  • Fiberoptic bronchoscopyDevice

    Checking correct double lumen position through direct vision using fiberoptic bronchoscopy

  • Lung UltrasoundDevice

    real time visualization of air entry to the lungs using trans-thoracic lung ultrasound

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lung cancer patientsCorrect position of double lumen endotracheal tube will be assessed using lung sonography, routine chest auscultation and fiberoptic brochoscopy
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Lung auscultation; Device: Fiberoptic bronchoscopy; Device: Lung Ultrasound

What is being measured

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

  1. sensitivity and specificity of lung ultrasound in confirmation of correct double lumen position

    real time visulaization of air entry to the lung

    Measured: 5 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. procedural time

    time taken to confirm tube position

    Measured: 5 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diagnostic Accuracy, run by National Cancer Institute, Egypt at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 19 Jul 2022. 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 Egypt. 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?

sensitivity and specificity of lung ultrasound in confirmation of correct double lumen position (time frame: 5 minutes). 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 19 Jul 2022.
