About this study

Balanced anesthesia combining volatile anesthetics and opioids is commonly used in modern anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to compare two methods of administering desflurane, an volatile anesthetic during balanced anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that administering desflurane at 1 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration) during balanced anesthesia will be more beneficial in terms of stability of the patient's vital signs and hypnotic depth than administering desflurane according to the patient's BIS (bispectral index) value.

Being tested
Administering desflurane according to the patient's BIS value, Administering desflurane at 1 MAC

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Administering desflurane according to the patient's BIS valueExperimentalThe anesthesiologist administers the volatile anesthetic desflurane to set the patient's BIS value at 50 during balanced anesthesia, and titrate the remifentanil dose to set the patient's systolic arterial blood pressure between 100-140mmHg.
Receives: Drug: Administering desflurane according to the patient's BIS value
Administering desflurane at 1 MACExperimentalThe anesthesiologist administers the volatile anesthetic desflurane at 1 MAC during balanced anesthesia, and titrate the remifentanil dose to set the patient's systolic arterial blood pressure between 100-140mmHg.
Receives: Drug: Administering desflurane at 1 MAC

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference of 'wobble' value of the patients' BIS value between the two groups

    'Wobble' is a variable that can measure the performance measurement of a pharmacokinetic model, or the reaction of the patient to a drug. We can calculate the performance error from the target of the therapy and the actual measured value, and derive the wobble by a specific formulas, which are described below.

    PE=(BISmeasured-BIStargeted)x100/BIStargeted MDPEi = median{PEij, j=1,…,Ni} MDAPEi = median{|PEij|, j=1,…,Ni} Wobblei = median{|PEij-MDPEi|, j=1,…,Ni} Divergence = slope{|PEij|, j=1,…,Ni}

    Measured: Every second from 10 minutes after skin incision to 10 minutes before surgery end.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The difference of 'wobble' value of the patients' systolic arterial blood pressure value between the two groups

    Described above

    Measured: Every 2.5 minutes from 10 minutes after skin incision to 10 minutes before surgery end

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Administering desflurane according to the patient's BIS value and Administering desflurane at 1 MAC in people with Stabilizing Hypnotic Depth and Vital Sign During Balanced Anesthesia, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 12 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 15 Jul 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 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?

The difference of 'wobble' value of the patients' BIS value between the two groups (time frame: Every second from 10 minutes after skin incision to 10 minutes before surgery end.). 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 NCT02283866, 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 15 Jul 2015.
