About this study

Endotracheal intubation is a painful and stressful procedure, which is associated with acute increases of blood pressure, intracranial pressure, bradycardia and hypoxemia with high morbidity.

The aim of the study is to compare recovery time, efficacy and tolerance in a randomized controlled study, between sevoflurane and propofol for intubation in neonates in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Read the detailed description

Background:

Endotracheal intubation is a painful and stressful procedure, which is associated with acute increases of blood pressure, intracranial pressure, bradycardia and hypoxemia with hight morbidity.

In 2001, in France more than 50% of intubations in neonates were performed without any premedication or anesthesia.

The most frequently used anesthesias are based on benzodiazepine or opioids. Unfortunately, these treatments are responsible for respiratory and hemodynamic adverse effects. Recently, 2 new possibilities for anesthesia before intubation has been tested: propofol was better than association of morphine, succinylcholine and atropine and we shaw that inhaled sevoflurane was better than no treatment.

The aim of the present study is to compare recovery time, efficacy and tolerance in a randomized controlled study, between sevoflurane and propofol for intubation in neonates in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Objectives:

The objective of this study is to compare recovery time, efficacy and tolerance in a randomized controlled study, between sevoflurane and propofol for intubation of neonates.

Methods:

Prospective, controlled, randomized, monocentric study.

Subjects:

Neonates in neonatal intensive care requiring intubation.

Evaluation criteria:

Recovery time after intubation, facilitation of procedure, tolerance of treatment (mean arterial pressure, apnea).

Being tested
Administration of sevoflurane, Administration of propofol

What participants receive

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

  • Administration of sevofluraneDrug

    Administration of sevoflurane (SEVORANE) by inhalation until a maximal concentration of 4% of inspired gas.

  • Administration of propofolDrug

    Administration of propofol (DIPRIVAN) by intravenous injection (1 mg/kg to turn over twice if necessary.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Administration of sevoflurane and Administration of propofol in people with Endotracheal Intubation, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille 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 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Aug 2014. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Fabrice MICHEL (fabrice.michel@ap-hm.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To compare recovery time between sevoflurane and propofol for intubation of neonates. (time frame: 18 months). 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 29 Aug 2014.
