About this study

Official title: The Effects of Ventilatory Strategies on Pulmonary Function After Cardiopulmonary Bypass Evaluated by Electrical Impedance Tomography in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

Pulmonary complications after cardiac surgeries are common. It is one of the most crucial concerns of cardiac surgeons and anesthesiologists. These adverse events may vary from a mild respiratory dysfunction to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). One of the most public reasons of these complications is atelectasis that would result in hypoxia and pneumonia. Any of these adverse events rises the prevalence of morbidity and mortality. The chief inducing causes for atelectasis are CPB and dropped blood perfusion and ventilation of the lungs. The ventilation arrest is related with a high frequency of retained bronchial sections, local atelectasis, decrease in arterial O2 concentrations as a effect of surge in arteriovenous shunt, declined lung compliance, pulmonary edema and hence increased risk of nosocomial infections.

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, radiation-free, real time bedside imaging modality, which provide the assessment of regional gas volume and lung ventilation. EIT has been experienced in quite a lot of animal and clinical applications including optimization of mechanical ventilator strategies and recognition of respiratory adverse events. Besides, EIT has been used to recognize ideal PEEP by detection of homogenous ventilation in non-dependent and dependent lung regions. Homogeneous ventilation is key for inhibition of ventilator-induced lung injury.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to use four different ventilatory strategies 【Group R : IMV(intermittent mandatory ventilation) Regular Ventilation with Tidal volume with 7ml/ kg (Predicted body weight) ; Group RP, Regular Ventilation with Tidal volume with 7ml/ kg (Predicted body weight) + PEEP : 6 cm H2O ;Group RI : Regular Ventilation with Tidal volume with 7ml/ kg (Predicted body weight) + Reverse IE ratio ventilation( I:E=1:1) ;Group RPI: Regular Ventilation with Tidal volume with 7ml/ kg (Predicted body weight) + PEEP : 6 cm H2O + Reverse IE ratio ventilation( I:E=1:1)】 to compare the beneficial in decreasing the incidence of post-operative pulmonary dysfunction after cardiac surgery including of the data of EIT, GAS , Lactate , PFR:PaO2/FiO2 ratio , cardiac index (CI) , BMI..etc . EIT were measured at two perioperative timepoints 1. after intubation at the onset of anesthesia with mechanical ventilation with 7ml/ kg (Predicted body weight) 2. at the end of surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. The correlation between Different ventilation mode and the relevant value of EIT

    Compare the correlation between Different ventilation mode and the relevant value of EIT in the population of open heart surgery patient

    Measured: since weaning cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the end of surgery

  2. The demographic characteristics and relevant value of EIT

    Campare the demographic characteristics and relevant value of EIT in the population of open heart surgery patient

    Measured: since weaning cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the end of surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. If the different ventilation mode setting can improve clinical outcome

    Identify the different ventilation mode setting in open heart surgery patient if can improve clinical care benifit.

    Measured: since weaning cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the end of surgery

  2. The correlation between heart function & oxygenation and different ventilation mode

    Survey the correlation between heart function \& oxygenation and different ventilation mode

    Measured: since weaning cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the end of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ventilation mode setting in people with Elective Cardiac Surgical Patients, run by National Defense Medical Center, Taiwan at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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 24 Mar 2021. 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 Taiwan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The correlation between Different ventilation mode and the relevant value of EIT (time frame: since weaning cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the end of surgery). 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 NCT04813250, which also lists 1 linked publication.
