About this study

Official title: Propofol-butorphanol Combined Anesthesia During Uterine Curettage on Abortion

Uterine curettage is usually performed under the anesthesia of propofol-fentanyl or para-cervical block,of which generally has significant incidence of respiratory depression which increases the demand on intraoperative monitoring, or has unavoidable insufficient blockade which results in intraoperative suffering of pain. Butorphanol is an analgesic with combined effects on mu and kappa opioid receptors leading to a role as analgesia and sedation. The investigators hypothesized that combined propofol with butorphanol during uterine curettage would produce optimal effectiveness of these two drugs by adding sedative and analgesic effects together. In addition, it would decrease the intraoperative consumption of propofol without increase the incidence of side effects. Furthermore, such combination would alleviate postoperative pain.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intraoperative awareness

    Measured: During the whole process of anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Bispectral Index (BIS) value

    Measured: During the whole process of anesthesia

  2. Anesthetic consumptions

    Measured: From the start of operation to the end of surgical procedures

  3. Postoperative pain

    Measured: Since the end of the operation to 48 h follow-up.

  4. Postoperative bleeding

    Measured: Since the end of operation to 48 h follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fentanyl Citrate and Butorphanol Tartrate in people with Abortion and Curettage, run by Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jul 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intraoperative awareness (time frame: During the whole process of anesthesia). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jul 2009.
