Trial summary

The sternotomy has some influence on the respiratory system after cardiac surgery, considerably increasing the risk of perioperative and postoperative breathing. There is respiratory preparation before cardiac surgery using local physiotherapeutic guidelines. Read more about this study

About this study

The sternotomy has some influence on the respiratory system after cardiac surgery, considerably increasing the risk of perioperative and postoperative breathing.

There is respiratory preparation before cardiac surgery using local physiotherapeutic guidelines.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the study is to have a quantification of this preparation spirometry: before starting the preparation and at the end of the preparation (right before surgery) by comparing the spirometric and pulse oximetry information. The prospective study will be conducted on 25 patients, who will be selected consecutively without randomization.

What is being measured

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

  1. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Forced spirometry.

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Resistance

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

  2. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Lung volumes

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

  3. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Dissemination capacity,

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

  4. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Flow / volume curves

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

  5. Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Peripheral saturation

    Measured by spirometry and pulse oximetry results.

    Measured: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sternotomy, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 1 site in France.

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 1 inclusion and 15 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 13 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 France. 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?

Analysis of the evolution of the pulmonary function by Forced spirometry. (time frame: 3 weeks before, the day before and the day after surgery.). 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 13 Dec 2023.
