About this study

The aim of this study is to observe specimens of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients using a reflection enhanced dark-field scattering microscopy. By observing parameters such as the size, morphology, scattering intensity, and movement speed of pathogens, combined with the clinical characteristics of patients, a rapid diagnosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection can be made. At the same time, the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples of patients infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa before and after treatment were compared, and the quantity and vitality of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were observed to judge the efficacy of antibiotics.

What participants receive

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

  • bronchoscopyProcedure or surgery

    We will perform bronchoscopy and collect bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)

What is being measured

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

  1. The size of pathogens

    Measure the size of pathogens

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks

  2. scattering intensity of pathogen

    Determine the shape of pathogens through scattering intensity

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks

  3. movement speed of pathogens

    Measure the movement speed of pathogens, such as flagellates like Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which have a fast movement speed

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rapid Detection and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infection, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical 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 2 inclusion and 2 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Wenkui Sun, Dr (+86 13914742215, sunwenkui@njmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The size of pathogens (time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks). The study lists 3 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 14 Aug 2025.
