Impact of Prophylactic Penehyclidine Hydrochloride Inhalation on Long-term Outcome in High-risk Patients: 3-year Follow-up of a Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Penehyclidine inhalation and Placebo inhalation for Postoperative Complications and Long-term Outcome. Completed, enrolled 864 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are major causes of postoperative morbidity, mortality, and prolonged hospital stay.The incidence of PPCs may be as high as 41% to 75% in high-risk patients. Bronchodilator is frequently used in high-risk patients to prevent PPCs. Penehyclidine is a new anticholinergic agent which selectively block M1 and M3 receptors. A previous randomized controlled trial tested the effect of prophylactic penehyclidine inhalation on the incidence of PPCs in high-risk patients. The purpose of this 3-year follow-up study is to investigate whether prophylactically penehyclidine hydrochloride inhalation can affect the 3-year outcomes of patients recruited in the previous randomized controlled trial.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Penehyclidine inhalation is administered by inhalation (penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.5 mg/0.5 ml, mixed with normal saline 5.5 ml) once every 12 hours from the night before surgery till the second day after surgery. The total number of inhalation is seven times. Study drug inhalation is performed with the high-flow oxygen-driven method for the non-intubated patients or with the atomizing inhalation device of ventilator for the intubated patients
Placebo inhalation is administered by inhalation (water for injection 0.5 ml, mixed with normal saline 5.5 ml) once every 12 hours from the night before surgery till the second day after surgery. The total number of inhalation is seven times. Study drug inhalation is performed with the high-flow oxygendriven method for the non-intubated patients or with the atomizing inhalation device of ventilator for the intubated patients.
