About this study

Official title: Effect of Preoperative Mannitol Infusion on Cerebral Oxygen Saturation and Patients' Recovery After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Decreased cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) was reported to occur during insufflation for laparoscopic procedures due to increased Intracranial pressure (ICP) with resultant decrease in cerebral perfusion pressure.

Read the detailed description

Forty patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be enrolled in this double blind, randomized controlled study. Patients will receive either 0.5g/kg of 20% intravenous (i.v.) mannitol infusion over 10 minutes immediately before induction of anesthesia (group M) or an equal volume of 0.9% normal saline instead (group C). Primary outcome measure is rSO2. Secondary outcome variables include extubation time, clinical assessment of consciousness recovery using the modified Observer's assessment of alertness/sedation scale (OAA/S) and the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) for cognitive evaluation after recovery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mannitol in people with Anesthesia, run by Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University at 2 sites in Saudi Arabia.

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 2 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 19 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 2 sites in Saudi Arabia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

rSO2 (time frame: participants will be followed for the duration of surgery, an expected average of 1 hour). 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 19 Mar 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
