Trial summary

It has been reported that deep extubation can reduce cardiopulmonary complication against endotracheal tube extubation during emergence from general anesthesia.

About this study

It has been reported that deep extubation can reduce cardiopulmonary complication against endotracheal tube extubation during emergence from general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that using desflurane with target controlled infusion of remifentanil is more effective than using desflurane alone during deep extubation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of remifentanil to prevent respiratory complication (etc. coughing) during emergence from general anesthesia.

Conditions

Being tested
Desflurane with remifentanil, Desflurane

What participants receive

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

  • Desflurane with remifentanilDrug

    Also called desflurane with remifetanil group

    During the emergence from anesthesia,extubation was performed under 1.0 MAC desflurane with 1.0ng/ml remifentanil

  • DesfluraneDrug

    Also called Desflurane alone group

    During the emergence from anesthesia,extubation was performed under 1.5 MAC desflurane

What is being measured

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

  1. Awakening Time

    The outcomes assessor will record from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of eye opening and mouth opening

    Measured: Participants will be followed from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of discharge from recovery room, an expected average of 1day.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Success Rate & Complication Rate Including Cough

    We will assess the success rate of deep extubation without complication and the occurrence of cough during emergence from general anesthesia.

    Measured: assessing the success rate of deep extubation without complication and the occurrance of cough from the completion of surgery to 5minute after extubation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Desflurane with remifentanil and Desflurane in people with Deep Extubation, run by Chung-Ang 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 4 inclusion and 16 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 7 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 May 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Awakening Time (time frame: Participants will be followed from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of discharge from recovery room, an expected average of 1day.). 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 May 2014.
