Dynamic Prediction of Sleep Protection Demand on the First Postoperative Night and Its Influence on Ward Process After Thoracoscopic Lobectomy or Segmentectomy
400 participantsStarted 2026-07-23
Plain-language summary
This study combines retrospective data analysis with a single-center prospective non-interventional cohort study to understand postoperative sleep disturbance on the first night after video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy or segmentectomy. It mainly wants to answer the question: Can perioperative data collected along the clinical timeline dynamically predict which patients will experience clinically significant sleep disturbance on their first postoperative night? Participants undergoing elective VATS lung resection will have multidimensional data systematically collected from preoperative screening (including PSQI and GAD-7), intraoperative anesthetic parameters, PACU-to-ward handover, pre-bedtime symptom burden, and follow-up through 1 month. Three dynamic prediction models (M0 preoperative screening, M1 early postoperative update, and M2 pre-bedtime main model) will be developed using logistic regression with RCSQ-assessed sleep disturbance as the primary outcome, while an explanatory model will quantify the impact of nighttime disruptions such as intravenous infusions, vital sign monitoring, nursing entries, and awakenings.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
