Brief Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-centre trial.The trial aims to evaluate efficacy of nebulized ipratropium bromide in Chinese peri-operative patients with COPD under general anaesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) From Pre-bronchodilator at Baseline to Post-nebulization One Day Before the Surgery

    Change of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) from pre-bronchodilator at baseline to post-nebulization one day before the surgery (Treatment day 3). Measurements of FEV1 were performed using calibrated electronic spirometers. Equipment and techniques should conform to American Thoracic Society (ATS) criteria (P05-12782). At screening visit, pulmonary function testing (PFT) was performed at baseline and repeated 30 minutes following inhalation of 4 puffs of salbutamol hydrofluoroalkanes metered-dose inhaler (HFA MDI). At treatment day 3, pulmonary function testing was performed 60 minutes following the inhalation of investigational drug. Spirometry was conducted with the patient in a seated position having abstained from medications. The best of three efforts was defined as the highest FEV1 each obtained on any of three efforts meeting the ATS criteria and it was selected regardless of whether they came from different spirometric manoeuvres or the same manoeuvre.

    Baseline and Treatment day 3

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Change of Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) From Pre-bronchodilator at Baseline to Post-nebulization One Day Before the Surgery

    Baseline and Treatment day 3

  • Change of Blood Gas Analyses From Pre-bronchodilator at Baseline to Post-nebulization One Day Before the Surgery: Arterial Oxygen Pressure (PaO2) Value

    Baseline and Treatment day 3

  • Change of Blood Gas Analyses From Pre-bronchodilator at Baseline to Post-nebulization One Day Before the Surgery: Oxygen Saturation

    Baseline and Treatment day 3

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients must sign an informed consent.
  • Male or female patients aged \>= 40 years and \<= 80 years
  • All patients must be diagnosed with COPD and must meet the following spirometric criterion: post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) \< 70% of forced vital capacity (FVC) at Screening Visit (Visit 1).
  • All patients have relatively stable COPD (i.e. have no COPD exacerbation within 4 weeks prior to Screening Visit).
  • All patients are about to receive selective surgical procedures of lobectomy or right bilobectomy or segmentectomy under general anaesthesia, whilst the estimated time of surgical procedures lasts for not less than 2 hours, and the estimated time of general anaesthesia lasts for not less than 3 hours and not longer than 5 hours.
  • Patients must be able to perform all study related procedures including technically acceptable pulmonary function tests (PFTs).

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who need maintenance treatment of bronchodilators (including anticholinergics, ß-agonists, xanthines).
  • Patients with a recent history (i.e. six months or less) of myocardial infarction
  • Patients with any unstable or life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia requiring intervention or change in drug therapy during the last year
  • Patients with symptomatic chronic heart failure (i.e. New York Heart Association functional class III-IV)
  • Known narrow angle glaucoma
  • Patients with prostatic hyperplasia or bladder neck obstruction with significant symptoms
  • Patients with a history of asthma, allergic rhinitis or who have a blood eosinophil count \>= 600 / mm3 (0.6×10\^9/L). A repeat eosinophil count will not be conducted in these patients

Limitations and Caveats

192 patients were entered in this trial. It was planned to treat 96 with Ipratropium bromide and 96 with Placebo. Out of these, one patient was randomised to the placebo group, but received nebulized ipratropium bromide.
