About this study

Official title: Effect of Dexmedetomidine Combined With Sufentanil for Postoperative Intravenous Analgesia in Neurosurgery: A Randomized Controlled Study

The purpose of this study is to determine effect of combined medication of sufentanil and dexmedetomidine in patient controlled analgesia after neurosurgery.

Read the detailed description

Sufentanil is a classical drug for postoperative analgesia. Dexmedetomidine is a commonly used α2-adrenergic receptor, and it helps provide sedation, analgesia and inhibition of sympathetic activation. The investigators propose to recruit 120 patients who is undergoing the arteriovenous malformation embolism operation in department of Neurosurgery. Patients will be randomly divided into 4 groups(control group, sufentanil and low dexmedetomidine dose group, sufentanil and middle dexmedetomidine dose group, sufentanil and high dexmedetomidine dose group), then the investigators select post-operative records to determine whether dexmedetomidine can take a positive role in neurosurgical analgesia.

Being tested
Sufentanil, dexmedetomidine 1, dexmedetomidine 2, dexmedetomidine 3
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain on the VAS scale

    measure the VAS score at pre-operative day and post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h。

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. blood pressure(BP)(mmHg)

    measure BP(mmHg),HR (/min),spO2(%), and breath(/min),on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  2. heart rate(HR) (/min)

    measure BP(mmHg),HR (/min),spO2(%), and breath(/min),on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  3. spO2(%)

    measure BP(mmHg),HR (/min),spO2(%), and breath(/min),on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  4. breath(/min)

    measure BP(mmHg),HR (/min),spO2(%), and breath(/min),on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  5. sedation level on ramsay sedation score

    measure sedation level using ramsay sedation score on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  6. vomit times

    measure vomit times on pre-operative day and at measure sedation level using ramsay sedation score on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

  7. nausea

    measure whether nausea exists on pre-operative day and at measure sedation level using ramsay sedation score on pre-operative day and at post-operative 4h、8h、12h、24h、48h、72h

    Measured: within the following 72 hours after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sufentanil, dexmedetomidine 1 and dexmedetomidine 2 in people with Arteriovenous Malformation, run by First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University at 1 site in China.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Oct 2016. 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 China. 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.

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?

Contact Liu Yi, master (13632391455 ext. +86, liuyisysu@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain on the VAS scale (time frame: within the following 72 hours after surgery). 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 18 Oct 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
