About this study

Official title: Methods of Establishing Intersegmental Plane in Segmentectomy: a Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

The aim of this study is to perform a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled study to explore whether closed insufflation technique is not inferior to dilatation and collapse technique in segmentectomy, and to provide a new option for establishing intersegmental plane in segmentectomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study. A total of 200 subjects undergoing segmentectomy are scheduled to be enrolled within 1 year, and the subjects are randomly divided into closed insufflation group or dilatation and collapse group using a random number table generated by the computer, with 100 cases in each group. Intersegmental plane resolution grading, perioperative complications, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitay stay, and pulmonary function 3 months and 1 year after surgery will be extracted and compared between the groups.

What participants receive

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

  • Implementation of closed insufflation technique during segmentectomyProcedure or surgery

    After the identification the targeted segmental bronchus during the operation,ligating the proximal end of the targeted bronchus. Put the vessel separation forceps in the distal bronchial space to avoid the accidental damage of the vessels. Use a 50ml syringe to inject air into the distal bronchus (about 100ml is expected) until the intersegmental plane is satisfactory. Divide the target bronchus using the cutting and closing device.

  • Implementation of dilatation and collapse technique during segmentectomyProcedure or surgery

    Divide the target bronchus using the cutting and closing device. Ask the anesthesiologist to inflate the lung completely from pure oxygen to the affected side and then change to single lung ventilation. Wait for the intersegmental plane to appear(usually about 15 minutes).

Study groups in NCT06015399
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Closed insufflation technique groupExperimentalClosed insufflation technique is characterized by ligation in the proximal portion of targeted bronchus and gas injection in the distal portion. Closed insufflation technique group includes patients undergoing segmentectomy using closed insufflation technique.
Receives: Procedure: Implementation of closed insufflation technique during segmentectomy
Dilatation and collapse techniqueActive comparatorDilatation and collapse technique is characterized by pure oxygen dilatation and subsequent collapse after the division of targeted bronchus. Dilatation and collapse technique group includes patients undergoing segmentectomy using Dilatation and collapse technique.
Receives: Procedure: Implementation of dilatation and collapse technique during segmentectomy

What is being measured

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

  1. Intersegmental plane clarity grading

    Intersegmental plane clarity will be graded as followed: G1: partial collapse of targeted parenchymal tissue, G2: partial dilatation of non-targeted adjacent tissue, G3: dilatation of targeted tissue and unclearness of intersegmental plane, G4: entire dilatation of targeted tissue and clearness of intersegmental plane.

    Measured: intraoperatively

  2. Surgical complications

    Surgical complications will be assessed according to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons database criteria.

    Measured: Up to 3 months

  3. Operative time required for segmentectomy

    Operative time required for segmentectomy will be measured as the total minutes from initiation to completion of segmentectomy.

    Measured: From the dissection of segmental structures to finish of segementectomy

  4. Pulmonary function 3 months and 1 year after surgery

    Pulmonary function includes ventilation and diffusion function. Pulmonary function will be measured at two time points including 3 months and 1 year after surgery.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Intraoperative blood loss

    Intraoperative blood loss will be measured as the total volume of blood loss during the operation.

    Measured: Intraoperatively

  2. Postoperative hospital stay

    Postoperative hospital stay will be measured as the number of days between surgery and discharge.

    Measured: Up to 2 weeks

  3. Days of chest tube placement

    Days of chest tube placement will be measured as the number of days between surgery and chest tube pull-out.

    Measured: Up to 2 weeks

  4. Safety margin

    Minimum distance between nodule and every margin can be measured preoperatively by 3D reconstruction tool and intraoperatively by ruler after the targetd segment has been resected.

    Measured: Up to 1 week

  5. Volume of targeted parenchymal tissue

    Volume of targeted parenchymal tissue will be calculated by 3D reconstruction tool.

    Measured: Up to 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implementation of closed insufflation technique during segmentectomy and Implementation of dilatation and collapse technique during segmentectomy in people with Surgery, run by Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University 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 11 inclusion and 11 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 29 Aug 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 Yan Hu, M.D., Ph.D. (+8685296122, yanhu@csu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intersegmental plane clarity grading (time frame: intraoperatively). The study lists 4 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 29 Aug 2023.
