What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with postoperative cognitive decline assessed by mini-mental state examination

    to compare cognitive decline after surgery between control and dexmedetomidine group with mini-mental state examination.

    Measured: from 1 day before surgery to postoperative 1 day

  2. Number of patients with postoperative cognitive decline assessed by a battery of psychometric test

    to compare cognitive decline after surgery between control and dexmedetomidine group with a battery of psychometric test. The battery consists of copy geometric form test, two-dimensional model test, grooved pegboard test, colored block design test, puzzle test, clock drawing test.

    Measured: from 1 day before surgery to postoperative 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of patients with increase of S100ß protein after surgery assessed by ELISA assay with blood of patients

    S100ß protein is the biologic marker for neuroinflammation

    Measured: from 5 min after induction of anesthesia to an 1 hour after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dexmedetomidine and normal saline in people with Rotator Cuff Tear, 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 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Number of patients with postoperative cognitive decline assessed by mini-mental state examination (time frame: from 1 day before surgery to postoperative 1 day). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Jan 2019.
