About this study

This study is to evaluate the effects of preoperative carbohydrate intake on perioperative neuroinflammation and development of delirium.

Read the detailed description

Perioperative insulin resistance may primarily contribute to development of postoperative delirium in high risk patients. Preoperative administration of oral carbohydrate reduces insulin resistance. The investigators aimed to investigate the influence of carbohydrate loading on the serum level of S-100β, a surrogate marker of delirium, and the incidence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients.

What participants receive

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

  • Allocated to Carbohydrated groupDietary supplement

    Also called No NPO

    Patients received 400 mL of oral isotonic glucose (No NPO®, Daesang, Korea) 12 hours before anesthesia and 400 mL 2 hours before. CHL composition was standard: 12.5 g of carbohydrate per 100 mL, 12% monosaccharide, 12% disaccharide, 76% polysaccharide, 250 mOsm/kg and 50 kcal.

  • Allocated to Placebo groupDietary supplement

    Also called flavored water

    Patients received 400 mL of oral flavored water (Placebo) 12 hours before anesthesia and 400 mL 2 hours before

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Allocated to Carbohydrated group in people with Insulin Resistance and Inflammation, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Aug 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. 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.

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?

serum S-100β level (time frame: Postoperative 1 hr). 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 4 Aug 2017.
