About this study

Remifentanil is one kind of opiates with strong analgesic effect,which has the rapid onset and short lasting duration. Remifentanil usually is used to help reducing the pain of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU. Maybe it can also be used to ease the pain in ICU small short time operation.The purpose of this study is to determine (1) whether remifentanil is effective in small short time operations in ICU or not, (2) the save range of remifentanil in small short time operations in ICU, (3) and the adverse reaction that happens in these operations.

Being tested
Remifentanil, Lidocaine, Remifentanil+Lidocaine, Midazolam

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • RemifentanilDrug

    a loading dose 1.0-2.0μg/kg remifentanil,intravenous injection slowly,time >1min,then 5μg/kg·h pumping if the operation can not be done in 5 minutes.

    Critical-Care Observation Tool(CPOT) and Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale(RASS) are assessed before and after the loading.We should maintain the CPOT≤2 and RASS 0~2,if it is not up to the standard,increasing the pumping rate 0.5 μg/kg·h every 2-5min.

  • LidocaineDrug

    lidocaine 100-400mg,local anesthesia.Critical-Care Observation Tool(CPOT) and Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale(RASS) are assessed before and after local anesthesia.We should maintain the CPOT≤2 and RASS 0~2.

  • Remifentanil+LidocaineDrug

    a loading dose 1.0-2.0μg/kg remifentanil,intravenous injection slowly,time >1min,then 5μg/kg·h remifentanil pumping immediately if the operation can not be done in 5 minutes.then local anesthesia with lidocaine 100-400mg.Critical-Care Observation Tool(CPOT) and Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale(RASS) are assessed before and after anesthesia.We should maintain the CPOT≤2 and RASS 0~2,if it is not up to the standard,increasing the pumping rate 0.5μg/kg·h every 2-5min.

  • MidazolamDrug

    midazolam is an adjuvant drug.we should maintain the CPOT≤2 and RASS 0~2,if lidocaine is already used up to 400mg or the pumping rate of remifentanil is already 7.5μg/kg·h,then we should use midazolam 3mg, intravenous injection slowly.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Remifentanil, Lidocaine and Remifentanil+Lidocaine in people with Critical Illness, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.

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 9 inclusion and 7 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 21 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.

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?

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?

vital signs change (time frame: baseline, intraoperative and 10mins after operation). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02635802, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 21 Dec 2015.
