About this study

Official title: Regional Distribution of Ventilation in Different Respiratory Rates: A Study of Mechanically Ventilated Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy

This study will investigate the distribution of gas during mechanical ventilation in patients undergoing robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. The gas distribution of ventilation are monitored and data extracted using electric impedance tomography in different respiratory rates.

Read the detailed description

Mechanical ventilation during anaesthesia and intensive care often results in an uneven gas distribution of ventilation. Patients anaesthetized for laparoscopic surgery and patients positioned i a Trendelenburg position is particularly at risk.

A less harmful mode of ventilation could possible lead to a more optimal ventilation with avoidance of ventilator induced lung injuries. The project will investigate if volume controlled ventilation with a higher respiratory frequency can be used in this purpose.

The researchers intend to investigate patients, without previously known lung disease, undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. After the patients have given informed consent, they will be included in the project. The distribution of ventilation will be monitored with electric impedance tomography (EIT). Once the patients have been anaesthetized, positioned with the head down and the surgical procedure have been started with insufflation of carbon dioxide we will start our test.

The investigators will perform three episodes of standardized ventilation with the respiratory rate (RR) of 20, 40 and 60. With a higher RR the tidal volume will be reduced tom maintain a constant inhaled minute volume. Data will be collected from the EIT-equipment, the anaesthesia machine and the monitoring system.

What participants receive

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

  • Ventilation 20-40-60Device

    The respiratory rate during mechanical ventilation will be altered from 20 to 40 and finally to 60 breaths per minute.

  • Ventilation 60-40-20Device

    The respiratory rate during mechanical ventilation will be altered from 60 to 40 and finally to 20 breaths per minute.

  • Ventilation 40-60-20Device

    The respiratory rate during mechanical ventilation will be altered from 40 to 60 and finally to 20 breaths per minute.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ventilation 20-40-60, Ventilation 60-40-20 and Ventilation 40-60-20 in people with Mechanical Ventilation and Atelectasis, run by Region Örebro County at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 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 3 May 2024. 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 Sweden. 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 Erik Wikström, MD (+46196025907, erik.wikstrom@regionorebrolan.se), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Distribution of ventilation (time frame: During the prostatectomy procedure). 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 3 May 2024.
