Trial summary

A correct preoxygenation can be obtained after a 3min delay of calm ventilation through a tight mask thereafter mask is used to make the patient breathing before intubation. Most tight masks are actually sold but they have never been compared in studies. Read more about this study

About this study

A correct preoxygenation can be obtained after a 3min delay of calm ventilation through a tight mask thereafter mask is used to make the patient breathing before intubation. Most tight masks are actually sold but they have never been compared in studies. The aim of this study is to compare air leaks with standard facial mask and QuadraLite masks during preoxygenation and induction of anesthesia.

Receives: Other: standard mask
QuadraLite face masksExperimentalThis study will compare tightness of 2 face masks during preoxygenation and after induction of anesthesia with propofol, sufentanil and rocuronium. During preoxygenation, a 10 l.min-1 fresh gas flow and 8 cm H2O PEEP will be applied. After induction of anesthesia, patients will receive pressure-controlled ventilation (fresh gaz flow 3 L.min-1, pressure set to obtain a 7 ml.kg-1 ideal body weight, 10 cpm, peep 5 cm H2O).
Receives: Device: QuadraLite masks

What is being measured

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

  1. significant leakage (ie greater than 20% of the current volume) between QuadraLite® mask and facial mask

    Measured: 10 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing QuadraLite masks and standard mask in people with Anesthesia, run by University Hospital, Limoges at 1 site in France.

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 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

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?

significant leakage (ie greater than 20% of the current volume) between QuadraLite® mask and facial mask (time frame: 10 minutes). 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 Jan 2019.
