About this study

Official title: Echocardiographic Assessment of Right Ventricular Function After Pulmonary Resection

Lung resection is associated with high postoperative morbidity and mortality and leads to a significant long-term decrease in functional capacity, particularly due to cardiorespiratory complications. One of the contributing factors to this functional decline is the postoperative reduction in right ventricular function. Due to the anatomical proximity and interactions, right ventricular function is evaluated by echocardiography following lung resection. The pulmonary artery pressure (PAP)/tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) ratio is a parameter that provides a more comprehensive assessment of right heart function by evaluating both right ventricular systolic function and pulmonary artery pressure. In this study, investigators aimed to evaluate changes in right heart function by performing preoperative and postoperative echocardiographic assessments in participants undergoing lung resection, focusing on PAP/TAPSE ratios.

Group 1In this study, a single group (Group 1) will be defined, and patients scheduled for lung resection who agree to participate will be included.

What is being measured

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

  1. Echocardiographic Assessment: TAPSE/PASP Ratio

    Patients will undergo transthoracic echocardiographic evaluation preoperatively, on postoperative days 2-4, and at postoperative month 2. The TAPSE/PASP ratio will be calculated and recorded in mm/mmHg as a non-invasive surrogate of right ventricular-pulmonary arterial coupling.

    Measured: Preoperatively, on postoperative days 2-4, and at postoperative month 2

  2. Echocardiographic Assessment: Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE)

    Patients will undergo transthoracic echocardiographic evaluation preoperatively, on postoperative days 2-4, and at postoperative month 2. TAPSE will be measured and recorded in millimeters (mm).

    Measured: Preoperatively, on postoperative days 2-4, and at postoperative month 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Resection and Right Ventricular Function, run by Çağrı Özdemir 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 20 Aug 2026. 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?

Echocardiographic Assessment: TAPSE/PASP Ratio (time frame: Preoperatively, on postoperative days 2-4, and at postoperative month 2). The study lists 2 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 20 Aug 2026.
