November 1, 2022 updated by: Milan Sova, University Hospital Olomouc

ASPIRATE Study- Comparison of Efficacy and Analgesic Use During the Therapy of Iatrogenic Pneumothorax Using Pleuralvent™ and Large Bore Chest Tube (16F)

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the efficiency and analgesic use in the therapy of iatrogenic Pneumothorax when using the Pleuralvent™ system in comparison with large bore chest tubes (catheter 16F).

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Rationale:

Pneumothorax is a common, usually invasively treated, disorder. The usual methods of treatment are needle aspiration (14-16 G needles) or chest drainage (16+ F catheters).

A third therapeutic option is the use of small calibre catheters (< 16F). According to some studies, the success rates of these methods are comparable. These catheters have the same success rate as large bore chest tubes and treatment with them is less painful for patients.

The use of Heimlich valves allows for increased patient mobility - or even out-patient treatment.

According to a review by the European Respiratory Society, nowadays there is an availability of systems which are part of advanced intervention techniques. These devices are designed for ease of insertion allowing for the full mobility of patients. It is, however, not clear whether treatment with these new systems is less painful.

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the efficiency and analgesic use in the therapy of iatrogenic Pneumothorax when using the Pleuralvent™ system in comparison with large bore chest tubes (catheter 16F).

Process:

Following the completion of the initial screening (fulfilling of both inclusion and exclusion criteria) and the signing of informed consent, a patient with iatrogenic pneumothorax (PNO) will be treated with, according to randomisation, either the Pleuralvent™ system or with a large bore chest tube - 16F. A control chest X-ray will be performed immediately after the introduction of the therapeutic method and following 3 days of therapy.

If no signs of PNO are present, the therapy will be terminated. In cases where the lung will not be completely expanded, the control X-ray will be repeated on the 5th, 7th and 10th day of therapy. If, following this, the PNO will persist without resolution, the therapy will be declared non-effective and other therapy modes will be used (conversion to large bore chest drainage in the Pleuralvent™group and surgical treatment in the chest drainage group).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
