Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a severe complication of critical illness. The diagnosis of ARDS is difficult, and it could be important to differentiate ARDS from other causes of acute respiratory failure. Innovative probe-based imaging techniques such as 'Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy' (CLE) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) are high resolution optical techniques that, combined with conventional bronchoscopy, have been found to provide non-invasive, real-time near-histology information about the alveolar compartment in non ventilated non-critically ill patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Probe based optical techniques

Detailed Description

It is important to identify the underlying cause of respiratory failure, in order to determine the appropriate treatment. Histopathology would help treatment decisions, however is in the fast majority of this critically ill patient-group not available. CLE is enables near histology/microscopic analysis during bronchoscopy, by tissue illumination with a low-power laser. Optical Coherence Tomography is the optical equivalent of B-mode ultrasonography, that consists of a small rotating optical fibre. Both the CLE and OCT techniques are minimally invasive and little time consuming. Therefore different areas of the lung can be sequentially imaged. With this pilot study the investigators aim to describe normal alveolar areas and areas with abnormalities in critically ill patients with non resolving acute respiratory failure mandating a standard bronchoscopy or laryngoscopy with or without bronchoalveolar lavage.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Mechanically ventilated patients

Critically ill patients of 18 years or older who receive invasive mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory failure and have an indication for an intervention in the airways.

Device: Probe based optical techniques
During the intervention of inspecting the airways, different segments of the alveolar compartment will be imaged by two different probe based (CLE and OCT).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Technical feasibility of various (diseased/non-diseased on HRCT-scan) alveolar compartments in mechanically ventilated patients [coss sectional (1 day)]

    Percentage of successful imaging

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Comparison of pCLE/OCT to radiological patterns [cross sectional (1 day)]

    Degree of similarity pCLE/OCT-imaging compared to HRCT

  2. Comparison of pCLE/OCT with pathology [cross sectional (1 day)]

    Degree of similarity between pCLE/OCT characteristics with pathology (in case available)
