About this study

Official title: Effect of Different VV ECMO Flows on Lung Perfusion Monitored by EIT: an Observational Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of using electric impedance tomography (EIT) to monitor lung perfusion during veno-venous (VV) extracopreal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support, as well as the effect of different ECMO flows on lung perfusion monitored by EIT.

Read the detailed description

This is a monocentric obsevensional study that uses EIT to monitor lung perfusion during VV ECMO support and the effect of different ECMO flows on lung perfusion as measured by EIT. Patients on VV ECMO who meet the withdrawal criteria as determined by clinical experts will have their ECMO flow gradually reduced. EIT lung ventilation and perfusion monitoring were performed at various ECMO flows.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lung perfusion at different VV ECMO flows

    Measured: up to 24hour

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Lung ventilation at different VV ECMO flows

    Effect of Different VV ECMO Flows (ECMO flow at 4.5L,3.5L,2.5L,1.5L, and after ECMO withdrawal) on lung ventilation distribution monitored by EIT

    Measured: up to 24hour

  2. Lung deadspace region at different VV ECMO flows

    Effect of Different VV ECMO Flows (ECMO flow at 4.5L,3.5L,2.5L,1.5L, and after ECMO withdrawal) on lung deadspace region monitored by EIT

    Measured: up to 24hour

  3. Lung shunt region at different VV ECMO flows

    Effect of Different VV ECMO Flows (ECMO flow at 4.5L,3.5L,2.5L,1.5L, and after ECMO withdrawal) on lung shunt region monitored by EIT

    Measured: up to 24hour

  4. Lung ventilation/perfusion matching at different VV ECMO flows

    Effect of Different VV ECMO Flows (ECMO flow at 4.5L,3.5L,2.5L,1.5L, and after ECMO withdrawal) on lung ventilation/perfusion matching monitored by EIT

    Measured: up to 24hour

  5. Recirculation at different VV ECMO flows

    Recirculation at different VV ECMO flows (ECMO flow at 4.5L,3.5L,2.5L,and1.5L)

    Measured: up to 24hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Critical Illness, run by Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology 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 10 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 21 Mar 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 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 Xiaobo Yang, prof. (008602785351606, want.tofly@aliyun.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung perfusion at different VV ECMO flows (time frame: up to 24hour). 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 21 Mar 2023.
