Trial summary

Sympathetic activity could be increased during robot-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy, which is performed in a head up position under CO2 pneumoperitoneum. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system prolongs the QT interval and can increases the susceptibility to life threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Read more about this study

About this study

Sympathetic activity could be increased during robot-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy, which is performed in a head up position under CO2 pneumoperitoneum.

Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system prolongs the QT interval and can increases the susceptibility to life threatening cardiac arrhythmias.

Thus the investigators decided to evaluate the heart-rate corrected QT interval (QTc interval) during robotic-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the heart-rate corrected QT (QTc) interval (msec) during robotic-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy

    (T0: Pre-induction T1: 10min after anesthetic induction T2: 1min after CO2 pneumoperitoneum T3: 5min after CO2 pneumoperitoneum T4: 30min after steep trendelenburg position T5:60min after steep trendelenburg T6: 90min after steep trendelenburg T7: Supine positon following end of pneumoperitoneum T8: 5 min after end of pneumoperitoneum T9: End of surgery T10: 10min after extubation)

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 5 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stomach Cancer, run by Yonsei University 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 2 inclusion and 9 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 25 Jan 2017. 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?

Evaluate the heart-rate corrected QT (QTc) interval (msec) during robotic-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy (time frame: through study completion, an average of 5 hours). 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 NCT02604979, 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 25 Jan 2017.
