About this study

Official title: Fully Automated Anesthesia, Analgesia and Fluid Management Using Multiple Physiologic Closed-Loop Systems in High-Risk Vascular Surgery: a Pilot Study

Evaluate the feasibility and quality of automated anesthesia, analgesia and fluid management based on a combination of several physiological variables (bispectral index [BIS], stroke volume [SV], and stroke volume variation [SVV]) using 2 independent physiologic closed-loop systems (PCLS) in patients undergoing high risk vascular surgery

Read the detailed description

Evaluate the feasibility and quality of automated anesthesia, analgesia and fluid management based on a combination of several physiological variables (bispectral index [BIS], stroke volume [SV], and stroke volume variation [SVV]) using 2 independent physiologic closed-loop systems (PCLS) in patients undergoing high risk vascular surgery.

All patients will receive total intravenous anesthesia in target controlled infusion mode using the population pharmacokinetic sets of Schnider for propofol and Minto for remifentanil to target the effect-site concentration. Infusion Toolbox 95 version 4.11 software (Free University of Brussels, Brussels, Belgium) implemented in a personal computer serving as a platform for: calculating effect-site concentrations of propofol and remifentanil; displaying effect-site concentration estimates in real time; providing a user interface that permits entry of patients' demographic data (sex, age, weight, and height) and modifications to target concentrations; controlling the propofol and remifentanil infusion pumps (Alaris Medical, Hampshire, United Kingdom); and recording calculated effect-site drug concentrations.

All patients will receive a baseline crystalloid infusion (PlasmaLyte, Baxter, Belgium) delivered by a pump at a rate of 3 mL/ kg/h (Fresenius Kabi, Belgium). Additional fluid was given using a goal-directed fluid therapy protocol guided by the cardiac output monitor (EV-1000; Edwards Lifesciences) and consisted of 100 mL boluses (Voluven, Fresenius Kabi, Germany) delivered by our PCLS (Learning Intravenous Resuscitator [LIR]). For fluid output, a Q-Core Sapphire Multi-Therapy Infusion Pump (Q-Core, Israel) was controlled by the LIR using software provided by Q-Core via a serial connection (Commands Server R.01). If hypotension occurred (defined as mean arterial pressure <20% of baseline blood pressure) and no fluid is delivered by the LIR, it will be treated by the anesthesiologist using a vasopressor drug.

In this pilot study, each closed loop also will operate independently, guided only by its own respective inputs (BIS for the propofol; SV and SVV for the fluid boluses).

The investigators will also measure analgesia using the PhysioDoloris monitoring device (MDoloris Medical Systems, Lille, France).

What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of adequate anesthesia defined as a BIS between between 40 and 60, a SVV < 13% and/or cardiac index > 2.5 litre/min/m² for more/equal of 85% of the surgical time

    Measured: at time of surgery

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Drug consumption: remifentanil dose

    Measured: at time of surgery

  2. Drug consumption: propofol dose

    Measured: at time of surgery

  3. amount of fluid given

    Measured: at time of surgery

  4. number of automatic modifications of the propofol and remifentanil concentrations

    Measured: at time of surgery

  5. number of patients movements

    Measured: at time of surgery

  6. number of hemodynamic abnormalities requiring treatment

    Measured: at time of surgery

  7. time to tracheal extubation

    Measured: at time of surgery

  8. intraoperative awareness

    Measured: postoperative day 1 or 2

  9. Occurrence of burst suppression

    Measured: at time of surgery

  10. Need for anesthetist interventions over the system during the surgery

    Measured: at time of surgery

  11. performance of the closed-loop system

    Measured: at time of surgery

  12. Interactions between both closed-loop system during the intraoperative period especially during hypotension episodes

    Measured: at time of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIS XP, Covidien, Ireland and EV-1000 TM, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California, USA in people with General Anesthetic Drug Overdose and Adverse Effect of Intravenous Anesthetics, Sequela, run by Erasme University Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 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 Jan 2017. 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 Belgium. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 percentage of adequate anesthesia defined as a BIS between between 40 and 60, a SVV < 13% and/or cardiac index > 2.5 litre/min/m² for more/equal of 85% of the surgical time (time frame: at time of surgery). 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 Jan 2017.
