Trial summary

In this randomized controlled trial the utility of capnography gets evaluated. Hypoxemia may occur during sedation with midazolam and propofol. Whether hypoxemia may be prevented by an additional capnographic monitoring is subject of the study. Read more about this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Capnography and Standard monitoring in people with In the Study the Value of Capnography for Avoiding Complications During Sedation for PEG is Evaluated., run by Ruhr University of Bochum at 3 sites in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Andrea Riphaus, MD (+49-234-299 ext. 80200, ariphaus@web.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hypoxemia (time frame: From the beginning to the end of the PEG procedure, i.e. from 0h to approximately 2h). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01242358, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Nov 2011.
