Those patients undergo lung and flail chest surgery.', 'detailedDescription': "Postoperative pulmonary complications (Defined as pulmonary infection, pleural effusion, atelectasis, pneumothorax, bronchospasm, aspiration pneumonitis or respiratory insufficiency subsequent to surgery) increase the morbidity and mortality of surgical patients. Several independent factors determined by the patients' characteristics and the operative procedure increase the risk for those complications. The postoperative decrease of values measured by spirometry, such as the forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), were found in patients after major surgical procedures for several days. The postoperative reduction of those measurement can be the result of general functional limitations in those patients (e.g. by postoperative pain) or the result of a regional postoperative pulmonary complication (e.g. atelectasis, pleural effusion). The method of the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) enables to visualize the regional ventilation within a transversal section of the lung in real time. Studies examining the change of pulmonary EIT for several days postoperatively in spontaneously breathing patients are lacking. The aim of the present study is to examine perioperative changes in regional ventilation in spontaneously breathing patients during their recovery after lung and flail chest surgery. Moreover, the association of those changes with expected changes in spirometry is tested. Finally, in patients with evident postoperative pulmonary complications the value of pulmonary EIT to detect those changes is investigated. The study should improve the knowledge about the development of postoperative pulmonary complications and test the scientific and clinical value of pulmonary EIT in those spontaneously breathing patients."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'adult inpatients undergoing elective surgery', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adult\n* Inpatient\n* Lung surgery under general anaesthesia\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Missing informed consent\n* Outpatient\n* Emergency procedure\n* Revision surgery of hospitalized patients\n* Pneumothorax\n* Pleural effusion\n* Pleural effusion or pleural empyema with need to cannulate\n* scheduled Pneumonectomy\n* Expected hospital stay of less than three days\n* Pregnancy\n* Allergy against material of the electrode belt (silicone rubber, stainless steel, gold-plated brass)\n* Injured, inflamed or otherwise affected skin within the target region of the electrode belt\n* Unstable spine injury\n* Body mass index of more than 50 kg/m2\n* Incapacity to lie quietly for the examination\n* Pacemaker, defibrillator or other active implant\n* Reoperation before the examination at the third postoperative day\n\nExclusion criteria during clinical course:\n\n* performed pneumonectomy\n* Reoperation\n* postoperative ventilation at the third day'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02779595', 'briefTitle': 'Change of Regional Ventilation During Spontaneous Breathing After Lung Surgery', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Wuerzburg University Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Change of Regional Ventilation During Spontaneous Breathing After Lung Surgery', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'thoraxEIT'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Lung surgery', 'description': '26 patients (up to 36) undergoing lung surgery having an elevated risk for postoperative pulmonary complications will be examined by perioperative pulmonary function tests', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Perioperative pulmonary function tests']}, {'label': 'Flail chest', 'description': '8 patients undergoing an operative stabilization of a flail chest will be examined by perioperative pulmonary function tests', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Perioperative pulmonary function tests']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Perioperative pulmonary function tests', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Pulmonary electrical impedance tomography, spirometry, pulse oximetry and query performed preoperatively, at the the third, fifth and seventh postoperative day', 'armGroupLabels': ['Flail chest', 'Lung surgery']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '97080', 'city': 'Würzburg', 'country': 'Germany', 'facility': 'University of Würzburg', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 49.79391, 'lon': 9.95121}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Markus Kredel, PD.Dr.med', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'University of Würzburg, Department of Anaesthesia and Critical Care'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Wuerzburg University Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
