About this study

Official title: Effect of Mechanical Ventilation on Peripheral Lymphatic Function - do Elevated Intrathoracic Pressure Impact Lymphatic Flow?

This study wil examine the effect of altered intrathoracic pressure on lymphatic function, by investigating the lymphatic vessels in the lower limb during mechanical ventilation.

The lymphatic function will be examined using Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging.

Read the detailed description

This study wil examine the effect of altered intrathoracic pressure on lymphatic function. This will be done by investigating peripheral lymphatic vessels on patients undergoing surgery for malformations of the jaw who are being mechanically ventilated.

Subjects will be examined on two occasions. One to establish baseline function, and one during surgery following a ventilation protocol with altered PIP and PEEP.

Being tested
Elevated pressure ventilation

What participants receive

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

  • Elevated pressure ventilationProcedure or surgery

    Elevated pressure ventilation is defined as a raise in PIP and PEEP by 10 cmH2O from each patients original pressure setting, although never higher than a PIP of 30 cmH2O.

What is being measured

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

  1. Peripheral lymphatic velocity (centimeters/second)

    Peripheral lymphatic fluid velocity (centimeters/second) will be calculated based upon NIRF sequences.

    Measured: 3 hours

  2. Peripheral lymphatic frequency (contractions/minute)

    Peripheral lymphatic contraction frequency (contractions/minute) will be calculated based upon NIRF sequences.

    Measured: 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Elevated pressure ventilation in people with Lymphatic Insufficiency, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 18 Nov 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lene Thorup, MD (+4535457845, lene.thorup.01@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Peripheral lymphatic velocity (centimeters/second) (time frame: 3 hours). 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?
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 18 Nov 2023.
