NCT ID: NCT04074902 Not yet recruiting - Pleurodesis Clinical Trials

Role of Chest Sonography in Evaluation of Pleurodesis in Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusion

Start date: September 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Thoracic ultrasonography easily detects the movement of the visceral pleura on the parietal pleura This sign is absent when pleurodesis is successful.

NCT ID: NCT03325192 Terminated - Clinical trials for Pleural Effusion, Malignant

Rapid Pleurodesis Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter

RAPID
Start date: December 12, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether the use of a rapid pleurodesis protocol using 10% iodopovidone immediately after tunneled pleural catheter placement improves time to IPC removal compared to patients who receive an IPC alone.

NCT ID: NCT02975921 Withdrawn - Pleural Effusion Clinical Trials

Betadine Pleurodesis Via Tunneled Pleural Catheters

Start date: July 2018
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether betadine (povidone-iodine) instillation during routine indwelling Tunneled Pleural Catheter (TPC) placement is efficacious in promoting pleurodesis and thus reducing the time to TPC removal.

NCT ID: NCT01463553 Recruiting - Pneumothorax Clinical Trials

Improving Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax (PSP) Treatment Techniques in VATS

Start date: July 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to: 1. Evaluate the validity of using abnormal characteristics of the pneumothorax line, as evaluated from chest X-ray film, as the operative indications for video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) on primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP). 2. Through a randomized double blind controlled trial on patients whose PSP was caused by lung bullae, evaluate the effectiveness of pleurodesis in terms of the rate of recurrence of PSP and the trauma of the operation on patients. 3. Based on the findings, establish selection standards for the timing of surgery to treat PSP by VATS and establish technical specifications for performing operations on different types of lung bullae. The goal is to improve the diagnosis and treatment of PSP so as to reduce the recurrence rate of pneumothorax, reduce the trauma of operation, shorten hospital stays and postoperative recovery time, and provide better services for returning to everyday life and improving the quality of life for patients.
