About this study

Official title: Conscious Sedation With Midazolam in Dentally Anxious Patients: Effect of the Administration Route (Oral Versus Intravenous Administration)

Use lay language.

To compare patient level of cooperation during dental care under conscious sedation with midazolam according to the administration route

Read the detailed description

The progress of the study is described below:

Session 1: intravenous administration of midazolam. Establishment of the individual dose.

Randomisation.

Session 2 :

Group A : oral administration of midazolam : the dose administered is twice the individual dose determined in session 1.

Group B : intravenous administration of midazolam at the individual dose determined in session 1.

Session 3 : reversal of the procedures :

Group A : intravenous administration of midazolam at the individual dose determined in session 1.

Group B : oral administration of midazolam : the dose administered is twice the individual dose determined in session 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient level of cooperation which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from0 to 5)

    Measured: At the first contact with the dentist (at day 1)

  2. Patient level of cooperation which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from 0 to 5)

    Measured: During venous cannulation (at day 1)

  3. Patient level of cooperation which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from0 to 5)

    Measured: During the first injection of local anaesthesia (at day 1)

  4. Patient level of cooperation which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from0 to 5)

    Measured: During the first dental care procedure (at day 1)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The level of patient stress which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from0 to 5)

    Measured: at T1 (first contact)

  2. The level of patient stress which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from0 to 5)

    Measured: at T8 (end of dental treatment)

  3. Satisfaction level of the patient which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from 0 to 5)

    Measured: 48 hours after dental care (T14).

  4. Satisfaction level of the accompanying person which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from 0 to 5)

    Measured: 48 hours after dental care (T14).

  5. Satisfaction level of the operator which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale

    This scale offers a good description of behaviour and anxiety in one score (from 0 to 5)

    Measured: 48 hours after dental care (T14).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Conscious sedation for dental care and midazolam in people with Dental Anxiety, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

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 6 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 11 Jun 2013. 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 France. 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.

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?

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?

Patient level of cooperation which is assessed using the French modified version of Venham scale (time frame: At the first contact with the dentist (at day 1)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01874717, 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 11 Jun 2013.
