About this study

Official title: National Epidemiologic Survey on the Incidence of Perioperative Hypothermia in Patients With Elective Surgery Under General Anesthesia in China

Study Objective:

  • to project the incidence of perioperative hypothermia in patients with elective surgery under general anesthesia in China
  • to determine the risk factors associated with perioperative hypothermia.
  • to explore the patient outcome of hypothermia such as cardiovascular events, wound infection,hospital stay and so on.

Study Design: The present study is a cross-sectional study with 30-day follow-up period.

Read the detailed description

This survey was anticipated to enroll 2208 patients with elective surgery under general anesthesia from 28 hospitals or so in China. After obtaining approval from the Ethical Committee related to research involving human subjects,the investigators will enroll the patients according to the inclusion and exclusion criterion. The tympanic temperature will be monitored at the following time points respectively: Arriving at waiting area, entering the OR room, 5 min before and after anesthesia induction, every 15 min during the operation, after 2h the tympanic temperature will be monitored at every 30 min, Tympanic temperature will also be taken when the surgery complete and when patients arrived at PACU. Other information will also be collected including the type and dosage of anesthesia drug,duration of surgery and anesthesia, patient warming method,operation room temperature, the amount of the infusion of intravenous fluids and blood and their warming techniques during the whole operation procedure. The postoperative follow-up will be conducted and recorded within 30 days after operation(for implantation surgery, the follow-up will be conducted within 90 days postoperatively ) which includes ICU stays, hospital stays, wound infection, new cardiovascular events.etc.

The contract research organization will be delegated to do an on site monitor once a month (online monitor once a week) for each hospital participate the survey during the recruitment and perform the source data validation at the same time to review the related medical records,source data and the case report forms, etc.to ensure the data accuracy and completeness.

Data management will be conducted through the whole survey procedure. In order to guarantee the validation of the data, two data managing staffs will input and verify the data independently.

Statistical analysis software (SAS9.2) was used for the calculation of all the statistical analyses. The number of cases, mean, standard deviation, median value, maximal value and minimal value should be calculated for the descriptions of the qualitative parameters. Number of cases and percentages are used for the descriptions on the classification parameters.Two side test is used for all the statistical tests, P<0.05 indicates that the difference is statistically significant (unless indicated otherwise), and 95% confidence is used as the confidence interval.

Study groups in NCT02211703
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ObservationThis is an epidemiology study in which all the data from the subjects enrolled will be collected and analysis to investigate the current patient warming condition and actual perioperative hyperthermia rate in the elective operation with general anesthesia. During the whole procedure none intervention is administered.

What is being measured

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

  1. the incidence of perioperative hypothermia

    The core temperatures (tympanic membrane) will be measured at various time points to identify the occurence of hypothermia

    Measured: from patients entered operating room to transfering to post anesthesia care units

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. record the postoperative adverse events

    To identify the hypothermia related adverse events, such as cardiovascular events, wound infection, hospital stays and so on.

    Measured: From the day after operation to 30 days thereafter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypothermia, run by Jie YI 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 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 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the incidence of perioperative hypothermia (time frame: from patients entered operating room to transfering to post anesthesia care units). 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 Aug 2014.
