About this study

Official title: Stabilizing Cerebral and Circulatory Hemodynamics During Shoulder Surgery in the Beach Chair Position Using Sequential Compression Device (SCD) or TED Stockings Compared to a Control Group

This study is a 3-legged randomized study examining whether during shoulder surgery performed in the beach chair position active compressions of the lower leg with a sequential compression device (SCD) have a superior effect on stabilizing cerebral and circulatory hemodynamics when compared to TED stockings or a control group without any stockings.

What participants receive

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

  • Sequential compression deviceDevice

    Also called SCD express Kendall

    a sequential compression device will be applied to the legs

  • TED stockingsOther

    Also called TED compression stockings, Kendall

    TED stockings will be applied to the patients legs during surgery

Study groups in NCT01680393
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sequential compression deviceExperimentalDuring arthroscopic shoulder surgery, an SCD device will be applied to the patients legs during surgery. Cerebral oxygenation and circulatory parameters will be recorded continuously throughout the surgery. Recordings will be hidden to the primary caregiver.
Receives: Device: Sequential compression device
TED stockingsExperimentalDuring arthroscopic shoulder surgery, TED stockings will be applied to the patients legs during surgery. Cerebral oxygenation and circulatory parameters will be recorded continuously throughout the surgery. Recordings will be hidden to the primary caregiver.
Receives: Other: TED stockings
ControlNo interventionno stockings will be applied to the patients legs

What is being measured

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

  1. cerebral oxygenation

    cerebral oxygenation averaged of 1 min during the operation

    Measured: per minute

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. ephedrine

    amount of ephedrine used during surgery

    Measured: throughout duration of anaesthesia, approximately 60 minutes

  2. cardiac output

    cardiac output averaged over 1 minute during the entire surgery

    Measured: per minute

  3. Stroke volume

    stroke volume averaged over 1 minute during the entire surgery

    Measured: per minute

  4. mean arterial pressure

    MAP averaged over 1 minute during the entire surgery

    Measured: per minute

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sequential compression device and TED stockings in people with Hypotension, run by Bispebjerg Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 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 7 Sep 2012. 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 Denmark. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Frank Pott, MD, DMsc (frank.pott@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

cerebral oxygenation (time frame: per minute). 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 7 Sep 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
