About this study

Official title: Effect of Tracheal Lidocaine on Intubating Conditions During Propofol-remifentanil TCI Without Neuromuscular Blockade

When not using neuromuscular blocking agent, even at optimal dosage, target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol and remifentanil occasionally produce unsatisfactory intubating conditions. Therefore, the investigators evaluated that the effect of tracheal lidocaine on the intubating conditions for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction of propofol and remifentanil TCI without neuromuscular blocking agent in day-case anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

Anesthesia was induced with propofol-remifentanil TCI with the effect-site concentration of 5μg/ml and 5ng/ml, respectively. After TCI, 3 ml of normal saline or 3 ml of 4% lidocaine was instilled to larynx and trachea, following intubation was performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall acceptable conditions for tracheal intubation

    Four minutes after start of propofol-remifentanil TCI, 3 ml of normal saline or 3 ml of 4% lidocaine was instilled to larynx and trachea, and one minute later, intubation was performed in double-blinded fashion.

    Measured: baseline from 5 min of TCI was maintained

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?

Overall acceptable conditions for tracheal intubation (time frame: baseline from 5 min of TCI was maintained). 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 NCT01489683, 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?
