What is being measured

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

  1. Sedation-Agitation Scale

    Measured: The moment of entering operating room,20 minutes before anesthesia induction,10 minutes before anesthesia inducion,the moment of anesthesia induction

  2. The pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scale

    Measured: The moment of entering operating room,and from discontinuation of inhalational anesthetics to the moment of patient's consciousness recovery,an expected average of 1 hour

  3. Anesthesia induction time

    Measured: From beginning of inhalating anesthetics to the moment of intubation

  4. Anesthesia maintenance time

    Measured: From the moment of intubation to the discontinuation of inhalational anesthestics

  5. Recovery time

    Measured: From discontinuation of inhalational anesthestics to the moment of patient's consciousness recovery, an expected average of 1 hour

  6. Change from baseline in blood pressure during anesthesia

    Measured: The moment of entering operating room,20 minutes before anesthesia induction,10 minutes before anesthesia inducion,the moment of anesthesia induction

  7. Change from baseline in heart rate during anesthesia

    Measured: The moment of entering operating room,20 minutes before anesthesia induction,10 minutes before anesthesia inducion,the moment of anesthesia induction

  8. Change from baseline in respiratory rate during anesthesia

    Measured: The moment of entering operating room,20 minutes before anesthesia induction,10 minutes before anesthesia inducion,the moment of anesthesia induction

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The alveolar concentration of inhalational anesthetics

    Measured: the moment of anesthesia induction,the moment of intubation,before cutting skin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Normal saline,1 milliliter, Dexmedetomidine 1 μg.kg-1,1 milliliter and Dexmedetomidine 2μg.kg-1,1 milliliter in people with The Efficacy and Safety of Intranasal Dexmedetomidine, run by Xijing Hospital.

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 8 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 21 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Sedation-Agitation Scale (time frame: The moment of entering operating room,20 minutes before anesthesia induction,10 minutes before anesthesia inducion,the moment of anesthesia induction). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Aug 2014.
