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 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population consisted of adult(>18yr) patients admitted to the ICU. Patients presented with acute respiratory failure and pulmonary consolidation by chest imaging (lung ultrasound, X ray or CT scan) were eligible for inclusion. Acute respiratory failure was defined by at least one of the following criteria: PaO2/FiO2<300mmHg, breathing frequencies>30 breath/min, and could involve many potential causes of hypoxemia (e.g., sepsis, atelectasis, pneumonia, acute exacerbation of chronic lung disease).

Who may be able to join

  • Admission to ICU( 18yr<age<90yr);
  • Patients presented with acute respiratory failure;
  • Pulmonary consolidation by chest imaging (lung ultrasound, X ray or CT scan).

Who cannot join

  • Hemodynamic instability (i.e., severe hypotension with systolic arterial pressure<60mmHg despite fluid expansion and vasoactive support; systolic arterial pressure>180mmHg; uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmias);
  • Severe thoracic trauma;
  • Coronavirus disease 2019;
  • Pulmonary artery hypertension and pregnancy.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Regional Perfusion of Lung Consolidation Upon Lung Ultrasonography

The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential usefulness of lung ultrasound to assess the size and perfusion of consolidation and explore their relationships with clinical outcome.

Read the detailed description

Lung consolidation is one of the most causes of hypoxia in intensive care unit(ICU) settings. A quantitative measurement of consolidation would be extremely benefit for the clinical management in hypoxemia, both as an index of severity and to predict outcomes.In order to quantify the lung consolidation and its effect on clinical outcomes, a simple and quantitative scoring system of the size and perfusion of lung consolidation was proposed by lung ultrasound. Subjects with respiratory failure and lung consolidation proved by chest imaging underwent lung ultrasound examination. The size of consolidation and the richness of blood flow was computed upon lung ultrasound. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the scoring system were calculated and compared to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy.

What is being measured

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

  1. consolidation area index

    The volume of consolidation was measured by consolidation area index (CAI) which is calculated from two-dimensional measures, namely the product of the core distance (from the bottom to the top of the screen) and the longitudinal distance (from the left to the right of the screen).

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 year

  2. blood flow score

    A semi-quantified scoring system based on the richness of flow signals was established. It identifies four progressive steps of blood signals, each corresponding to a score: no pulsatile blood flow-score 0; sparse dot-like blood flow-score 1; pronounced curvilinear vascularity-score 2; tree-like vascularity-score 3.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Injury, Acute and Ultrasound Therapy; Complications, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Na Wang, MD (17810258960, wangna_pumch2017@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

consolidation area index (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 year). 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 NCT05647967, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Dec 2022.
