About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Midazolam and Fentanyl in Pediatric Patients With Long-term Analgosedation.

Pharmacokinetic monitoring of midazolam, it's active metabolite and fentanyl in pediatric patients with long-term analgosedation will be performed. Especially, the chronologic sequence of the quantified plasma levels during sedation and during wake-up as well as the correlation to dose and sedation depth will be focused.

Read the detailed description

At pre-defined timepoints (see below) serum Levels of the above mentioned drugs and metabolites will be determined and pharmakokinetic (PK) modeling will be performed. PK data will be correlated to sedation depth, as assessed using a validated score.

Three Age Groups (infants, children and adolescents) will be evaluated considering the physiologic properties during pediatric development.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma levels of midazolam, 1'-Hydroxymidazolam and fentanyl and resulting pharmacokinetic parameters

    Measured: Once daily during analgosedation [expected average of 10 days) and 0, 1, 2, and 4h after stopping of midazolam

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Duration of mechanical ventilation

    Measured: Participants will be followed for the duration of mechanical ventilation, an expected average of 10 days

  2. Sedation depth

    Measured: Participants will be followed for the duration of mechanical ventilation, an expected average of 10 days

  3. Length of stay at the intensive care unit (ICU)

    Measured: Participants will be followed for the duration of stay at the ICU, an expected average of 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Deep Sedation and Intensive Care Pediatric, run by Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 30 Apr 2021. 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 Germany. 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?

Plasma levels of midazolam, 1'-Hydroxymidazolam and fentanyl and resulting pharmacokinetic parameters (time frame: Once daily during analgosedation [expected average of 10 days) and 0, 1, 2, and 4h after stopping of midazolam). 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 30 Apr 2021.
