The Effect of Single Lung Ventilation Duration on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Thoracic Surgery
This observational study investigates the relationship between the duration of single-lung ventilation (SLV) and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) such as pneumonia, pneumothorax, hemothorax, acute lung injury, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in adult patients undergoing thoracic surgery. A total of 134 patients aged 18-85 years, scheduled …
Implementing Spiritual Care in Inpatient Palliative Care
The goal of this observational study is to is to ascertain the spiritual needs of palliative patients in a standardized manner using the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire and to promptly address those needs by (specialized) spiritual care. To determine whether the effort of implementing the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire on a sustainable …
Molecular Analysis of Suspected or High-Risk Lung Cancer to Drive Individualized Care (Interception for Suspected Lung Cancer)
This study evaluates the effectiveness of robotic biopsies in providing information about hereditary or cancer specific genetic variants that may have a role in diagnosis of cancer and to develop genetic results and medical record databank for future studies.
A Clinico-biological Database of Lung Cancers
This prospective, single-center, interventional study is conducted in order to achieve a biological bank accompanied by clinical data. Blood samples, optional tumor tissue and fecal samples are collected, processed and banked for all the included subjects. Those samples are collected before the start of treatment, at the time of first …
OSA in Never Smokers With Lung Cancer
Previous studies have yielded inconsistent findings regarding the association between obstructive sleep apnea and the prevalence and mortality of lung cancer. Smoking history, a common risk factor for lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and obstructive sleep apnea, may act as a confounding variable, limiting interpretation of the results. The …
Lung Ultrasound Score After ENT Cancer Surgery
After ENT cancer surgery, postoperative respiratory complications are common, especially after tracheostomy. The objective of this study is to characterize the pulmonary status of patients after ENT cancer surgery. We wish to collect and analyze the pulmonary abnormalities revealed by the ultrasound scans performed in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), …
Esophageal Pressure Measurements During One-lung Ventilation
The investigators will assess the feasibility and validity of esophageal pressure measurements during one-lung ventilation in the lateral position for surgery by comparing to lung collapse estimated from electrical impedance tomography during a PEEP trial.
Giessen Pulmonary Hypertension in Lung Cancer Registry
The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency and implications of pulmonary hypertension in lung cancer patients. To do so, data will be collected from all lung cancer patients at the university hospital Giessen. All data will be analyzed for possible hints of pulmonary hypertension as a comorbidity …
Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) in Lung Resections
Perioperative hypotension is a risk factor for perioperative complications. Advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have produced an algorithm that predicts the occurrence of hypotension episodes by analyzing an arterial pressure waveform. This technology has not been validated in thoracic surgical patients undergoing lung resections with the use of …
MRD Monitoring in Lung Cancer After Resection
The conception of molecular residual disease (MRD) extending from hematologic tumor to solid tumors. Evidences supporting MRD evaluation for lung cancer by liquid biopsy has gradually accumulated, especially circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). In this observational study, the investigators prospectively enroll stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who underwent …
