About this study

Official title: Role of Propofol Postconditioning on Oxidative Stress and Cognitive Function in Patients Undergoing Intracranial Aneurysm Surgery.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences between propofol postconditioning and sevoflurane anesthesia in the intracranial aneurysm surgery about antioxidant effect.

Read the detailed description

intracranial aneurysm surgery may lead to regional ischemic reperfusion injury. Propofol, as an antioxidative phenol, has been demonstrated that mitigate the brain I/R in rats.

As for sevoflurane, some investigation indicated that sevoflurane is able to reduce oxidative stress in cell(except neuronal cell lines ) and rodent models, but the antioxidant effect did not found in human minor incision surgeries, furthermore, oxidative stress was raised in the major surgeries including orthopedic surgeries, hysterectomy, cholecystectomy, and thoracotomy

Being tested
propofol postconditioning, sevoflurane

What participants receive

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

  • propofol postconditioningDrug

    administrated Target Controlled Infusion(TCI) of propofol (Cp 1.2ug/ml) and decreased sevoflurane with a Bispectral index (BIS) value of 40-60 to maintain anesthesia after clamp removal

  • sevofluraneDrug

    0.5%-2% sevoflurane with BIS 40-60

What is being measured

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

  1. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress Confirmed by ELISA Kit

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress :Superoxide dismutase activity, Hydroxyl radical

    Measured: before induction,after clamping removal ,operation ending ,1,3,7days post surgery

  2. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress Confirmed by ELISA

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress:8-isoprostane,as a reliable biomarkers of lipid peroxidation

    Measured: before induction, after clamping removal,operation ending,1,3,7days post surgery

  3. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress:Micronuclei

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress:micronuclei confirmed by Cytokinesis-block Micronucleus Test

    Measured: before induction,clamping removal ,operation ending,1,3,7days post surgery

  4. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress Confirmed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress :α- tocopherol,γ- tocopherol which was used to assess the antioxidant defense.

    Measured: before induction,after clamping removal ,operation ending ,1,3,7days post surgery

  5. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress: Nuclear Buds

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress:nuclear buds Confirmed by Cytokinesis-block Micronucleus Test

    Measured: before induction,clamping removal ,operation ending,1,3,7days post surgery

  6. Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress: Nucleoplasmic Bridges

    Evidences of clinically definite oxidative stress: nucleoplasmic bridges confirmed by Cytokinesis-block Micronucleus Test

    Measured: before induction,clamping removal ,operation ending,1,3,7days post surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE)

    A questionnaires is used to assess the cognitive function of patients in clinical,the total range was 0-30,and 27-30 were considered as normal value,<27 were considered as recognitive dysfunction.

    Measured: before induction,1,3,7days post surgery

  2. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

    A questionnaires is used to assess the cognitive function of patients in clinical,the total range was 0-30,and 27-30 were considered as normal value,<27 were considered as recognitive dysfunction.

    Measured: before induction,1,3,7days post surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing propofol postconditioning and sevoflurane in people with Cerebral Arterial Aneurysm, run by The Third Central Clinical College of Tianjin Medical 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 2 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 Jul 2017. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Sep 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Evidences of Clinically Definite Oxidative Stress Confirmed by ELISA Kit (time frame: before induction,after clamping removal ,operation ending ,1,3,7days post surgery). 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?
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 Jul 2017.
