Trial summary

Venous thromboembolism(VTE) is the third most common cardiovascular complication among hospitalized patients, and can even cause death. VTE often occurs in intensive care patients and there had been many efforts to prevent such complication. Read more about this study

About this study

Venous thromboembolism(VTE) is the third most common cardiovascular complication among hospitalized patients, and can even cause death. VTE often occurs in intensive care patients and there had been many efforts to prevent such complication. The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) had published evidence-based clinical practice guideline for VTE prophylaxis.

This study focuses on how VTE prophylaxis is being performed in both medical and surgical ICUs in a single University hospital, and sees the differences in such prophylactic patterns.

What is being measured

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

  1. Desaturation rate

    SpO2 < 90% (checked by pulse oximetry)

    Measured: Baseline from 5 min after remifentanil TCI start, 10 min after dexmedetomidine loading start, every 5 min until surgeon can do endoscopy successfully, to immediately after endoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dexmedetomidine infusion rate, 0.5 mcg/kg/hr and dexmedetomidine infusion rate, 1.0 mcg/kg/hr in people with Sleep Apnea Syndrome, run by Yonsei University 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 2 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 25 Jan 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 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?

Desaturation rate (time frame: Baseline from 5 min after remifentanil TCI start, 10 min after dexmedetomidine loading start, every 5 min until surgeon can do endoscopy successfully, to immediately after endoscopy). 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 25 Jan 2017.
