About this study

Official title: Effects of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Ventilation on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter in Patients Undergoing Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy

The investigators aim to investigate the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation on intracranial pressure assessed by sonographic optic nerve sheath diameter in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.

Read the detailed description

Effects of positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation on intracranial pressure have not been evaluated in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. We aim to investigate the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation on intracranial pressure assessed by sonographic optic nerve sheath diameter in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PEEP in people with Other Surgical Procedures, run by Asan Medical Center.

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 2 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 2 Dec 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?

Optic nerve sheath diameter (time frame: intraoperative). 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 NCT02516566, 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 2 Dec 2015.
