What is being measured

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

  1. corrected QT interval (QTc interval)

    up to 10 minutes after tracheal intubation, up to 60 minutes after reperfusion, at 10 minutes after hepatectomy, at 10 minutes after biliary anastomosis, at skin closure, at the arrival on ICU, on postoperative day 1.

    Measured: up to postoperative day 1 after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. proportion of patients whose QTc interval is more than 450 ms for men and 470 ms for women

    Measured: up to postoperative day 1 after surgery

  2. proportion of patients who have more than 500 ms of QTc interval

    Measured: up to postoperative day 1 after surgery

  3. Tp-e interval

    up to 10 minutes after tracheal intubation, up to 60 minutes after reperfusion, at 10 minutes after hepatectomy, at 10 minutes after biliary anastomosis, at skin closure, at the arrival on ICU, on postoperative day 1.

    Measured: up to postoperative day 1 after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anesthesia, General, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 3 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 14 May 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?

corrected QT interval (QTc interval) (time frame: up to postoperative day 1 after 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 14 May 2014.
