NCT ID: NCT02863835 Completed - Clinical trials for Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome

Evaluation of Electrical Impedance Tomography for the Diagnosis of Chronic Rejection in Lung Transplants Recipients

CLAD
Start date: April 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is non-invasive and provides functional imaging of the lung and it could be a useful tool to diagnose chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) and specially Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS). Hence, for this study, the investigators aim to show that EIT would provide an accurate diagnostic CLAD with an ability to to distinguish BOS from Restrictive Allograft Syndrome (RAS) and to stage BOS accurately when compared to FEV1 the current gold standard. The investigators are also aiming to provide physiological data in lung transplant recipients with chronic rejection.
