Study of the Application of CPAP to Reduce Complications and Improve Lung Cancer Ablation Radiofrequency Treatment

The project aims to study whether the application of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) of 4 cm water vapor is a safe method in pulmonary radiofrequency intervention (PRF) lung cancer under conscious sedation compared with placebo. And, assess whether CPAP prevents atelectasis formation and consequently reduces the potential complications of PRF and improves procedural success

Treatment and study plan

RESMED AUTOSET S9

Device

Continuous positive pressure during surgery

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety

    Time frame: thirty days

    Patients with any of the following complications

    Pulmonary over-distention along intervention Pneumothorax along intervention Bronchial fistulas measures Computed tomography (CT)1, CT2 and CT3 Vomiting along intervention Decrease in MAP (mean arterial pressure) > 20% measured in the intraoperative period

    Assay of each of the previous complications

Secondary outcomes

  1. Prevention of atelectasis.

    Time frame: during surgery

    Atelectasic area Normal ventilation pulmonary area Hypoventilation pulmonary area Hyperventilation pulmonary area Bronchial wall injury distance

  2. Decrease associated complications with PFR. Measurement times: intraoperative, PACU (post-anesthesic care unit), hospital discharge, day 15 and day 30.

    Time frame: thirty days

    Major complications (death, failure to complete treatment, need for manual ventilation, intubation or resuscitation, pulmonary hemorrhage, need for pleural drainage, shock, fistulas, nerve injury, diaphragmatic injury, persistent pain, infections, increased hospitalization time and readmission rates) and any classified as a serious adverse event.

  3. Treatment success

    Time frame: Measurement time: CT3

    Tumor ablation range, measured in CT3.

  4. Predictors factors of the occurrence of complications during PRA (pulmonary radiofrequency ablation).

    Time frame: thirty days

    Minor complications (transient episodes of hypoxemia, apnea / hypoventilation or hypotension, pneumothorax without clinic symptoms or drainage, increased need for sedation, longer procedure) and any other event adverse not classified as serious.
