  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This retrospective study will analyze data from adult patients aged 18 years and above who were admitted with a diagnosis of PITS to the intensive care units of Health Sciences University Ankara Atatürk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital and Yenimahalle Training and Research Hospital between 2016 and 2022.

About this study

Official title: Long-term Outcomes of Intensive Care Unit Patients With Post-intubation Tracheal Stenosis; 7-year Follow-up

This retrospective, observational, cohort study evaluates the treatment management, long-term outcomes and survival analyses in patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit with a diagnosis of Post-Intubation Tracheal Stenosis (PITS) between 1st June 2016 and 1st June 2022. The study emphasizes the role of bronchoscopic interventions in treatment management and the effective and efficient use of health services.

Read the detailed description

This retrospective study will analyze data from adult patients aged 18 years and above who were admitted with a diagnosis of Post-Intubation Tracheal Stenosis to the intensive care units of Health Sciences University Ankara Atatürk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital and Yenimahalle Training and Research Hospital between 2016 and 2022. The analysis will examine data from both the hospital registration system and the patients' intensive care files. Patients who have a history of malignancy contributing to tracheal stenosis, patients who have a history of congenital tracheal anomalies or tracheal stenosis, those with incomplete intensive care follow-up information, patient follow-up files or hospital information system data, and patients who have been repeatedly hospitalized (with only the first hospitalisation data taken into account) shall be eliminated from the study. If patients who were discharged from the intensive care unit have one-year post-discharge data, the investigators will obtain the information from the hospital's follow-up system. Otherwise, investigators will collect information by calling patients or patients first-degree relatives by phone.The post-discharge data is from a past period, and the one-year follow-up period for the last patient included in the study ends on 1st June 2023.

The aim of the study is to determine whether early diagnosis and interventional bronchoscopic treatment have an impact on the length of intensive care unit stay and prognosis for patients with Post-Intubation Tracheal Stenosis whilst in the intensive care unit. This will be achieved through an investigation of patient outcomes following appropriate interventions.

What participants receive

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

  • Interventional BronchoscopyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Rigid Bronchoscopy

    Bronchoscopy offers vital information when evaluating patients suffering from tracheal stenosis. It enables direct visualisation which identifies the lesion, determines its location and extent of airway involvement, highlights vascularity and fragility, allows for tissue diagnosis and enables the operator to assess the extent of mucosal infiltration and airway compression caused by the tumour. The technique facilitates assessment of stenosis diameter for suitable stent selection. In addition to enabling diagnostic bronchoscopy, rigid bronchoscopy offers therapeutic options such as dilatation, cryotherapy and stenting for tracheal stenosis patients. Our clinical setting employs rigid bronchoscopy for interventional procedures with both diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.

Study groups in NCT06121024
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Simple Tracheal StenosisSimple stenosis was defined as lesions with a vertical extension <1 cm (short segment) with endoluminal occlusion, without tracheomalacia or loss of cartilage support.
Receives: Procedure: Interventional Bronchoscopy
Complex Tracheal StenosisComplex stenosis were defined as lesions ≥1 cm and varying degrees of cartilage involvement or circumferential contractile scar or tracheal stenosis associated with malacia and inflammation.
Receives: Procedure: Interventional Bronchoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tracheal Stenosis and Intensive Care Unit, run by Ankara Ataturk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Dec 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mortality (time frame: 1 year). 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 1 Dec 2023.
