Official title
Simple Aspiration for Initial Management of Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax in Children: A Multi-Center Pilot Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this multi-center, non-randomized, prospective pilot study is to examine the rate of successful primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) resolution using the simple aspiration technique. In this study, eligible subjects diagnosed with PSP at eleven participating large children's hospitals (members of the Midwest Pediatric Surgical Clinical Research Consortium) will be enrolled and offered a choice of management with either the simple aspiration protocol or management according to their surgeon's preference, which may include simple aspiration, chest tube placement, or rarely, an operation.
