Pneumothorax Sample Clauses

Pneumothorax. Pneumothorax is an expected and anticipated event in patients undergoing a lung volume reduction procedure. With lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS), pneumothorax occurs in all (100%) cases and all patients leave the operating room with a chest tube(s) to manage air leaks. After EBV treatment, it is anticipated that the collapsed lung in the target lobe or expanding lung in adjacent lobe(s) may develop an air leak(s). With lung volume reduction procedures, achieving a higher success rate may be associated with having a higher risk of pneumothorax. In the VENT study, pneumothorax was seen in 15%-20% of EBV-treated study participants who were thought to have little or no lobar CV (i.e. had HRCT suggestive of complete fissure) along with HRCT evidence of lobar occlusion with valve treatment. Therefore, it is anticipated in this study that approximately one in five of EBV-treated study participants may experience a post-procedure pneumothorax. Study participants who received the study treatment will be provided with a Medical Alert Card, Treated Study Participant Bracelet, Transferring Instructions if Late Pneumothorax, and Post-Procedure Instructions prior to hospital discharge. Study participants who received the study treatment will be contacted during the 10 days after discharge and asked about increased chest pain, nausea, and new, worsening shortness of breath, which are all potential indicators of pneumothorax. A suggested treatment plan for managing any suspected pneumothorax is provided in Appendix 18. Any study participant who has a persistent pneumothorax requiring care beyond a chest tube should be transferred to the treating hospital and attended to by the treating physician and his or her study team.
