Trial summary

LMA(Laryngel Mask Airway) is useful for pediatrics surgery, and there are various methods of LMA insertion. When the investigators evaluate the LMA position, the investigators can use fiberoptic bronchoscope (Grade 1 to 4). Read more about this study

About this study

LMA(Laryngel Mask Airway) is useful for pediatrics surgery, and there are various methods of LMA insertion. When the investigators evaluate the LMA position, the investigators can use fiberoptic bronchoscope (Grade 1 to 4). For pediatric patients, clinical signs(airway pressure<20cmH2O, expiratory CO2 level)are seen normal but the grade is 3 or 4. And this will bring high risk of aspiration. Recent studies reported the LMA position after general anesthesia induction not after operation. Therefore, the investigators will observe the LMA position three times; after general anesthesia induction, after caudal block, and after operation as well as the difference regarding to spontaneous and controlled ventilation.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT02220075
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
spontaneous groupmaintain spontaneous breathing during the operation, and recording tidal volume, ET CO2, respiratory rate, peak airway pressure, SpO2
controlled groupcontrolled ventilation(tidal volume 8ml/kg, ET CO2 35~40mmHg) during the operation, recording peak airway pressure, SpO2

What is being measured

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

  1. sucess rate of LMA insertion

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. FOB(fiberoptic bronchoscope) grading of LMA position

    Grade 1: only the larynx visible, Grade 2: larynz and epiglottis visible, Grade 3: epiglottis was impinging on the LMA grille, Grade 4: epiglottis was downfolded and the larynx could not be seen)

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pediatric Urologic Surgery, 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 4 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 26 Mar 2019. 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?

sucess rate of LMA insertion (time frame: 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 26 Mar 2019.
