Trial summary

Different neuromuscular monitors may be available in the same care structure. Two different monitors are available in the investigators' institution in the operative room and the recovery room. However, these two monitors have not been compared and may not be interchangeable. Read more about this study

About this study

Different neuromuscular monitors may be available in the same care structure. Two different monitors are available in the investigators' institution in the operative room and the recovery room. However, these two monitors have not been compared and may not be interchangeable. Starting the monitoring with one device and continuing with another device may be inaccurate and may lead to inadequate medical decisions. The investigators therefore conducted this observational study to compare the two devices available in our institution.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to recover T4/T1 > 90%

    After muscle relaxant injection, we measure the time needed for the muscular response to disappear and to completely recover during the operation (which takes in average 2 hours).

    Measured: Time between muscle relaxant injection and: intubation; recovery of 4 responses on the train of four (TOF); recovery of T4/T1 >40%; recovery of T4/T1>90% average 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuromuscular Monitoring, run by University Hospital, Caen.

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 4 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 29 Jan 2015. 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. 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?

Time to recover T4/T1 > 90% (time frame: Time between muscle relaxant injection and: intubation; recovery of 4 responses on the train of four (TOF); recovery of T4/T1 >40%; recovery of T4/T1>90% average 2 hours). 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 29 Jan 2015.
