Being tested
NaCl 9/00, dexmedetomidine

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NaCl 9/00Drug

    Same volume as in the dexmedetomidine group

  • dexmedetomidineDrug

    1 mcg/kg administered in 10 minutes followed by a continuous infusion of 0,5 mcg/kg/hr

What is being measured

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

  1. administered doses of propofol and of remifentanil during anesthesia

    Measured: end of anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. delay before recovery

    Measured: at the end of anesthesia

  2. hemodynamic abnormalities requiring a treatment

    Measured: end of anesthesia

  3. postoperative morphine requirement

    Measured: Third post-anesthetic hour

  4. explicit memorisation

    Measured: Second postoperative day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing NaCl 9/00 and dexmedetomidine in people with Anesthesia, run by Hopital Foch at 1 site in France.

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 1 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 23 Sep 2016. 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 France. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

administered doses of propofol and of remifentanil during anesthesia (time frame: end 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 23 Sep 2016.
