Trial summary

Primary endpoint: Defining The optimal target range for Surgical Pleth index. Surgical Pleth Index (SPI, formerly used SSI = Surgical Stress Index) is a novel multivariate index, which is based on the sum of the normalized pulse beat interval (PBI) and the photoplethysmography.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients assessed for operation lasting more than two hours and requiring intubation.

Who may be able to join

  • Ability to provide written informed consent
  • Age 18-80 years of age
  • Surgery that is expected to last at least 2 hours under general anesthesia with endotracheal tube

Who cannot join

  • Any subject that meets the definition of vulnerable subject as defined in ISO 14155:2011o Per ISO 14155:2011, a vulnerable subject is defined as an individual whose willingness to volunteer in a clinical investigation could be unduly influenced by the expectation, whether justified or not, of benefits associated with participation or of retaliatory response from senior members of a hierarchy in case of refusal to participate
  • Any subject with a cardiac pacemaker
  • Any subject with atrial fibrillation at the time of obtaining the baseline values
  • Any subject with more than 5 ventricular extra systoles/minute at the time of obtaining the baseline values
  • Any subject who needs invasive blood pressure measurement
  • Any subject who show hemodynamics that would have qualified for being considered as a sign of inadequate anesthesia already at baseline:
Show all 15Show fewer
  • o Mean blood pressure below 60 mmHg or above 100 mmHg o HR below 45 /min or above 100/min
  • Any subject with epidural anesthesia or analgesia during the surgery. Epidural catheter may be placed pre-operatively, and used in the PACU, but not during the surgery
  • Any subject having surgery that requires prone position
  • Any subject with very high body mass index (>35) because of incompatibility with the target controlled anesthesia models used
  • Any subject with known allergies to the specific anesthetic agents/ analgesic drugs intended for use in their surgeries
  • Any subject with laryngeal mask airway
  • Any subject who requires neuromuscular blocking agent infusion
  • Any subject who is going to have major surgery with a high risk of extensive blood loss
  • Any subject with known chronic use of opioids

About this study

Official title: GE AOA Study Spin-off: Defining the Clinically Useful Range for Surgical Pleth Index

Primary endpoint: Defining The optimal target range for Surgical Pleth index. Surgical Pleth Index (SPI, formerly used SSI = Surgical Stress Index) is a novel multivariate index, which is based on the sum of the normalized pulse beat interval (PBI) and the photoplethysmography. SPI indicates the balance between intensity of surgical stimulation and the level of anti-nociception (opioid analgesia and neural blockade). This study is a Spin off from a larger Adequacy of Anaesthesia study and aims on finding the most appropriate target range for SPI in order to avoid signs of inadequate anaesthesia. Patients are treated without monitoring adequacy of anaesthesia thus the values are collected blinded and analyzed afterwards in accordance of signs for inadequate anaesthesia. The study population will be 150 patients.

Read the detailed description

Signs of non-adequate anaesthesia are motor and/or autonomic nervous system arousals during surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. optimal maximum limit for SPI

    SPI -value at a predefined criteria for signs of anaesthesia.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Optimal lower limit for SPI

    The measured lower limit SPI-value at the time point for signs of too deep anaesthesia

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anesthesia, run by Tampere University Hospital at 1 site in Finland.

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 15 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 May 2017. 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 Finland. 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?

optimal maximum limit for SPI (time frame: 1 day). 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 May 2017.
