About this study

Official title: Closed-Loop Target Controlled Infusion of Propofol and Remifentanil Guided by Narcotrend Index in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy applied to Artificial pneumoperitoneum and the extent of Surgical stimulation cause the wave of hemodynamics increase vigorously, which make it difficult to judge the depth of anesthesia according to traditional hemodynamics index such as heart rate and blood pressure.In case of this, the investigators design this research to study the Closed-Loop Target Controlled Infusion to anaesthesia of individualization guided by a Narcotrend index monitor in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.

Read the detailed description

Anesthetics alter electrocortical activity in a dose-dependent manner,and it is suggested that electroencephalographic(EEG)activity can provide a reliable basis for a surrogate measurement of hypnosis.An EEG monitor,the Narcotrend Index(NI),has proven useful to titrate hypnotic drugs.Because it is a single composite measure monitored continuously,it has been used in controlled studies to automatically guide propofol administration.Conversely,automated delivery systems for opioids have seldom been described using EEG activity There are no specific measures to quantify analgesia directly.Nevertheless,in the interaction between opioid-hypnotic synergy and loss of consciousness,when the dose of analgesic administered is sufficient to inhibit autonomic response to noxious stimuli,then the required hypnotic concentration is only that needed to achieve loss of consciousness.Moreover,a noxious stimulus such as laryngoscopy or periosteal pressure to the tibia may cause electrocortical activation with an increase in Narcotrend index,which indirectly reflects the analgesic state or the level of antinociception.Finally,an excitatory EEG arousal reaction resulting from nociceptive stimulation can provide a rational basis for analgesia administration.It can then be hypothesized that Narcotrend index could also be the controlled variable for opioid administration.

What participants receive

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

  • Closed-loop TCIDevice

    the controller in the current study measures and calculates the error(NI error),which is the difference between the set point(NI=36)and the measured NI.If the NI error is different from 0,the controller determines a new propoflo and/or remifentanil concentration.

  • Opened-loop TCIDevice

    the investigator modified the effect-site target concentrations of both drugs without minimum or maximum concentration limits to maintain NI at approximately 36 within a range of 26 to 46 to the extent possible.

What is being measured

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

  1. Narcotrend index

    the controller in the current study measures and calculates the error(NI error),which is the difference between the set point(NI=36)and the measured NI.If the NI error is different from 0,the controller determines a new propoflo and/or remifentanil concentration.The error size determines which drug will be modified:if the NI error is small,only the remifentanil is changed;if the NI error is higher,the two drug concentrations are changed.

    Measured: 5minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. induction duration

    duration of induction defined as the time elapsed from the start of propofol administration to the moment when the NI value decreased to <46

    Measured: within 10 minutes from the start of of propofol administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Closed-loop TCI and Opened-loop TCI in people with Cholecystolithiasis, run by Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command at 1 site in China.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2015. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact bo xu (88653387 ext. 020, xubo333@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Narcotrend index (time frame: 5minutes). 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 NCT02114437, 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 12 Mar 2015.
