About this study

Official title: Comparison the Effect on Cerebral Oxygenation by Sevoflurane-remifentanil or Propofol-remifentanil Anesthesia Using Near-infrared Spectroscopy in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy)

The aim of this study is comparing the effect on cerebral oxygenation by sevoflurane-remifentanil or propofol-remifentanil anesthesia in patient undergoing carotid endarterectomy. Cerebral oxygenation is measured by near-infrared spectroscopy. Sevoflurane and propofol reduce the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen in similar degree. Propofol decrease the cerebral blood flow by dose-dependent manner, however, sevoflurane increase the cerebral blood flow in the concentration of avobe 1 MAC. Both drugs are widely used in general anesthesia for neurosurgical procedure, and their effect on cerebral oxygenation are acceptable. There is little data about the effect of general anethetics on cerebral oxygenation in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy, who have imparied cerebral circulation. Our hypothesis is sevoflurane will show better cerebral oxygenation than propofol in patient have impaired cerebral circulation.

Read the detailed description

This study is performed by monitoring the cerebral oxygenation using near-infrared spectroscopy from general anesthesia induction to 10 min after releasing the carotid artery clipping.

Study group: Sevoflurane - remifentanil anesthesia group (S) Propofol - remifentanil anesthesia group (R)

Monitoring: near-infrared spectroscopy (SOMA sensor) BIS, HR, arterial blood pressure, SpO2, body temperature

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sevoflurane and Propofol in people with Carotid Stenosis, run by Chonnam National University Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 11 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.

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?

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?

cerebral oxygenation measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (time frame: one year). 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 NCT02609087, 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 11 Jan 2017.
