Trial summary

The fundamental reason for comparing the ability of the Frontal Sedline TM Electroencephalogram (PSA EEG) to standard Global 12 Lead Electroencephalogram (EEG) for burst suppression detection is to determine if a less expensive, less invasive and possibly more convenient bifrontal EEG monitor can be effective for… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study of Global 12 Lead Electroencephalogram to Frontal SedlineTM Electroencephalogram Monitoring for the Evaluation of Intraoperative Burst Suppression During Elective Craniotomy or Transphenoidal Pituitary Resection

The fundamental reason for comparing the ability of the Frontal Sedline TM Electroencephalogram (PSA EEG) to standard Global 12 Lead Electroencephalogram (EEG) for burst suppression detection is to determine if a less expensive, less invasive and possibly more convenient bifrontal EEG monitor can be effective for evaluation of anesthesia-induced intraoperative burst suppression therapy (IBST) for cerebral protection.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between 4 channel PSA EEG and a global 12 lead EEG

    The primary outcome measure is correlation between 4 channel frontal PSA EEG pattern and standard global 12 lead EEG during IBST.

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Craniotomy and Transphenoidal Pituitary Resection, run by Loma Linda University at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 9 Sep 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 United States. 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.

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?

Correlation between 4 channel PSA EEG and a global 12 lead EEG (time frame: 24 hours). 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 9 Sep 2014.
