Trial summary

Electrical impedance tomography was used to monitor changes in pulmonary perfusion distribution and V/Q ratio before and after iNO in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome to investigate the factors predicting iNO reactivity and the physiological mechanism underlying changes in oxygenation.

Official title: Effect of Inhaled Nitric Oxide on Pulmonary Ventilation/Perfusion Ratio Assessed by Electrical Impedance Tomography in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Electrical impedance tomography was used to monitor changes in pulmonary perfusion distribution and V/Q ratio before and after iNO in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome to investigate the factors predicting iNO reactivity and the physiological mechanism underlying changes in oxygenation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lung ventilation/perfusion ration

    Lung ventilation/perfusion ration after iNO assessed by EIT

    Measured: 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Lung perfusion distribution

    Lung ventilation/perfusion ration after iNO assessed by EIT

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  2. Shunting

    Lung shunting% after iNO assessed by EIT

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  3. Dead space

    Lung dead space after iNO assessed by EIT

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  4. Oxygenation index

    Oxygenation index= arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  5. Arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2)

    PaCO2 is one of the key indicators of pulmonary ventilation which can be obtained from arterial blood gas analysis.

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  6. Static respiratory compliance (Crs)

    Crs=tidal volume/driving pressure

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  7. Cardiac output

    Cardiac output assessed by echocardiography

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

  8. Right ventricular function

    Right ventricular function assessed by echocardiography

    Measured: 30minutes and 3 hours

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 2 inclusion and 9 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 24 May 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 Xiaojing Zou, prof. (+862785351606, 249126734@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung ventilation/perfusion ration (time frame: 3 hours). 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 24 May 2023.
