About this study

Patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy in the beach chair position may be at risk for adverse neurologic events due to cerebral ischemia.

Dexmedetomidine, a potent alpha adrenoceptor agonist which dose-dependently reduces arterial blood pressure and heart rate, decreases the hemodynamic and catecholamine response in the perioperative period.

dexmedetomidine has an effect of peripheral vasoconstriction thus it is theologically appropriate for reducing bleeding for arthroscopic operation field.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of dexmedetomidine on cerebral oxygen saturation, cognitive function, hemodynamic stability and operative field in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery in the beach-chair position.

Being tested
Dexmedetomidine

What is being measured

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

  1. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation value

    Before the anesthetic induction(T1), Before endotracheal intubation(T2), After endotracheal intubation(T3), Before the beach-chair position(T4), 5 minutes after the beach-chair position(T5), Before the operation(T6), 5 minutes after the incision(T7), After removal of the arthroscopy(T8), at the end of the operation(T9)

    Measured: T1,T2,T3, T4, T5,T6, T7, T8, T9 time of post-dose during surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dexmedetomidine in people with Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery in the Beach-chair Position, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 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 5 Mar 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 South Korea. 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?

Regional cerebral oxygen saturation value (time frame: T1,T2,T3, T4, T5,T6, T7, T8, T9 time of post-dose during surgery). 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 5 Mar 2014.
