About this study

Official title: A Comparison of the Sedation With Intermittent Bolus Midazolam-Ketamine Versus Intermittent Bolus Propofol-Fentanyl During Endoscopy in Children: Randomized Trial

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency and safety of midazolam plus ketamine versus fentanyl plus propofol administered to children undergoing UGE and to determine the most appropriate sedation protocol.

Read the detailed description

The patients were given a spray of lidocaine 10% as a topical pharyngeal anaesthesia before sedation. Intravenous midazolam bolus dose 0.1 mg/kg (maximum 4 mg) was administered to Group A. Two minutes later, ketamine bolus dose 1 mg/kg was given intravenously. Patient responses to verbal and tactile stimuli were evaluated two minutes after ketamine application. Ketamine 0.5 mg/kg (maximum of 2 mg/kg) was added in two minute intervals if adequate sedation was not achieved initially. The endoscopy process was initiated by the endoscopist if there was no response. If the patients were agitated after the procedure started, a ketamine 0.5 mg/kg single dose was applied. Intravenous fentanyl bolus dose 1µg/kg was administered to Group B. Two minutes later, propofol bolus dose 1 mg/kg was given intravenously. Patient responses to verbal and tactile stimuli were evaluated two minutes after propofol application. Propofol 0.5 mg/kg was added in two minute intervals if adequate sedation was not achieved. The endoscopy process was initiated by the endoscopist if there was no response. If the patients were agitated after the procedure started, a propofol 0.5 mg/kg single dose was applied. None of the patients were given an antidote after the process during recovery.

All patients were monitored for peripheral oxygen saturation, heart rate (HR), respiratory rate, and RSS during the procedure. Oxygen (2L/min) by nasal cannula was given to all patients during the procedure. Hypoxia (peripheral oxygen saturation <90% during 60 seconds), apnea, laryngospasm, tachycardia (defined as 30% more than the average heart rate by age), bradycardia (30% less than the average heart rate by age), increase in oral secretions (more than enough to warrant aspiration), flushing, coughing and vomiting were assessed as complications and recorded.

Being tested
Ketamine and Midazolam, Propofol and Fentanyl

What participants receive

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

  • Ketamine and MidazolamDrug

    Also called Ketalar (Ketamin, Pfizer) and Dormicum (Midazolam, Roche)

    This group was injected intravenous midazolam 0.1 mg/kg (maximum 4 mg), two minutes later, ketamine 1 mg/kg was given intravenously before the start of endoscopy.

  • Propofol and FentanylDrug

    Also called Propofol Lipuro (Propofol, B-Braun) Fentanyl (Fentanyl, J&J)

    This group was injected intravenous fentanyl 1 mcg/kg, and two minutes later, propofol 1 mg/kg was given intravenously before the start of endoscopy.

What is being measured

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

  1. the effectiveness of sedation

    the effectiviness of midazolam plus ketamine versus fentanyl plus propofol according to a modified Ramsay sedation score

    Measured: six months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. adverse events that are related to study drugs

    number of patients with adverse events that are related to study drugs

    Measured: six months

  2. procedure time

    procedure time is defined as the time between the insertion of endoscope and removal of endoscope

    Measured: six months

  3. recovery time

    recovery time is defined as the time from completing the endoscopy to achieving Aldrete score 10 in the recovery unit Aldrete score

    Measured: six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ketamine and Midazolam and Propofol and Fentanyl in people with Failed Moderate Sedation During Procedure, run by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research 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 1 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 Apr 2016. 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?

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?

the effectiveness of sedation (time frame: six months). 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 Apr 2016.
