This surgery remains associated with significant postoperative pulmonary complications, whose incidence ranges from 15% to 49% depending on the study (1). The main complication is pulmonary atelectasis, which provides a favorable setting for the development of postoperative pneumonia.\n\nIn thoracic surgery, the operated lung is excluded, and one-lung ventilation is performed on the contralateral lung. During surgery, several strategies exist to prevent atelectasis during one-lung ventilation, known as protective ventilation strategies (2). At the end of the procedure, reventilation allows re-expansion of the previously excluded lung.\n\nHowever, pulmonary reventilation induces the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and causes endothelial dysfunction, which may lead to pulmonary edema, thereby negating the benefits of intraoperative protective ventilation. Conversely, insufficient re-expansion may result in persistent postoperative atelectasis, whereas excessive re-expansion can cause volutrauma, alveolar trauma, and\u002For barotrauma to the operated lung (3).\n\nSeveral reventilation techniques are currently used, but to our knowledge, the impact of reventilation itself has never been specifically studied. The first, empirical technique, consists of reventilating both lungs using the accessory circuit and the adjustable pressure-limiting (APL) valve, manually bagging the patient over several respiratory cycles (4). The main drawback of this method is the lack of monitoring of insufflated volumes and pressures.\n\nThe second, more recent technique, consists of reventilating the patient using the anesthesia machine circuit in controlled ventilation mode, which allows for precise monitoring of pressures and insufflated volumes (5). This approach provides real-time monitoring of lung re-expansion and could therefore be less harmful than the empirical method.\n\nThus, the objective of this study is to compare postoperative pulmonary complications between patients who underwent lung re-expansion using the accessory circuit and those who underwent lung re-expansion using the anesthesia machine circuit in controlled ventilation mode.",[25],"NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-06-05",{"date":57,"type":31},"2026-06-09",{"date":59,"type":21},"2026-07-01",{"date":61,"type":21},"2028-08-01",{"name":63,"class":38},"University Hospital, Rouen",5,{"id":66,"slug":67,"hasResults":11,"nctId":68,"briefTitle":69,"officialTitle":69,"acronym":70,"eligibilityCriteria":71,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":72,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":4,"briefSummary":73,"conditions":74,"keywords":76,"overallStatus":27,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":78,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":79,"startDateStruct":81,"completionDateStruct":83,"leadSponsor":85,"locationsCount":39},"100619872","prospective-study-evaluating-the-effectiveness-of-intraoperative-ventilation-for-predicting-postoperative-air-leaks-during-major-lung-resections-by-conventional-or-robotic-thoracoscopy-100619872","NCT07350265","Prospective Study Evaluating the Effectiveness of Intraoperative Ventilation for Predicting Postoperative Air Leaks During Major Lung Resections by Conventional or Robotic Thoracoscopy","NODRAIN","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient with pulmonary lobectomy or Anatomical segmentectomy with closed chest (conventional or robotic thoracoscopy);\n* Patient affiliated with a health insurance scheme.\n* Person who has not objected to the collection of his\u002Fher data for the purpose of the study.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient undergoing any type of lung resection by thoracotomy;\n* Patient with a history of thoracic surgery on the same side;\n* Patient with pulmonary fibrosis;\n* Patient from a vulnerable population as defined in Articles L.1121-5 to 8 of the French Public Health Code.\n* Patient undergoing conversion to thoracotomy;\n* Patient undergoing conversion from planned pulmonary lobectomy or anatomical segmentectomy to atypical resection, bilobectomy or pneumonectomy;\n* Drainage via two chest drains;\n* Absence of autonomous drainage system;\n* Patient not extubated at the end of the procedure;\n* Early reoperation, before drain removal, due to complications.",{"count":20,"type":21},"Air leak from lung after major pulmonary resections is alveolar-pleural microfistulas resulting from damage to the visceral pleura during lung surgery. Despite advances in stapling techniques and repair methods to ensure pulmonary tightness after excision, air leak is the most common cause of prolonged hospital stay after lung surgery, accounting for 20 to 30% of post-surgical adverse events.\n\nAlthough painless, they remain a significant source of morbidity. 10 to 20% of patients may have a prolonged air leak requiring intervention. Prolonged air leak is defined as an air leakage that persists for 5 days or more. Prolonged air leak is independently associated with increased hospitalization costs of 18% to 27% according to the series reported in the literature, but also with increased costs after hospital discharge, up to 90 days postoperatively.\n\nTraditionally, the detection of air leak at the end of surgery is done by testing the lung for submersion in saline solution. With the development of major pulmonary resection techniques by conventional or robotic thoracoscopy (with closed chest), this method has become ineffective because it requires re-ventilating the lung in a closed rib cage, which cancels the visibility of the camera. However, the frequency of these adverse events and the morbidity associated with them now induces the placement of post-operative drains, which are very painful, unlike the leak itself, which makes the pain even more complex to bear for patients.\n\nGiven the rapid transition to a minimally invasive surgical approach, having a method to detect and quantify intraoperative air leak on a closed chest is necessary in order to accelerate patients' postoperative recovery, reducing their postoperative pain while controlling the incidence of complications.\n\nA recent study has shown that the risk of postoperative air leak is possible based exclusively on intraoperative ventilator measurements, but the data are still too scarce to rely on them extensively.",[75,25],"Air Leak From Lung",[77],"intraoperative ventilation","2026-03-27",{"date":80,"type":31},"2026-03-30",{"date":82,"type":31},"2026-01-14",{"date":84,"type":21},"2026-12",{"name":86,"class":38},"GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche",{"id":88,"slug":89,"hasResults":11,"nctId":90,"briefTitle":91,"officialTitle":92,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":93,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":17,"minAge":94,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":95,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":49,"phases":97,"briefSummary":98,"conditions":99,"keywords":107,"overallStatus":27,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":110,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":111,"startDateStruct":113,"completionDateStruct":115,"leadSponsor":117,"locationsCount":39},"100555754","auricular-acupressure-in-prehabilitation-100555754","NCT06516198","Auricular Acupressure in Prehabilitation","A Pilot Study of the Utility of Auricular Acupressure in Enhancing Prehabilitation Benefits in Candidates for Thoracic Surgery.","Inclusion Criteria\n\n* Being considered for major lung surgery\n* Surgery is not scheduled for at least 2 weeks\n* Age ≥ 50 years\n* Able to understand English at a 4th grade level\n* No known contraindications to prehabilitation (strength, endurance, balance exercises)\n* Able to provide informed consent for participation\n* Has an adult care partner who will be available and capable of placing seeds\n* Has access to smart phone for communication and image sharing\n* Underwent frailty screening (given any score)\n* Able to perform spirometry testing in clinic\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Allergy to Vaccaria seeds\n* Medical condition affecting either ear preventing use of auricular acupressure such as eczema, frostbite, sunburn","50 Years",{"count":96,"type":21},40,[51],"Complementary medicine is recognized for its ability to enhance appetite, increase energy, reduce anxiety, decrease pain, and improve sleep, among many other benefits.
