About this study

This study aims to demonstrate that presurgical assessement of patients' risk factors and surveillance during surgery, both performed by nurses, are not inferior to anesthetic team's care, concerning the rate of complications in cataract surgery with topical anesthesia.

The nurse performs the triage of patients based on a chart of risk factors assessment. The triage, according to the presence or not of risk factors, leads to patients' care by an anesthetic team (medical anesthesist for pre-surgical assessement and anesthetic nurse for surveillance during surgery) or to patients' pre-surgical assessement and surveillance during surgery both performed only by nurses.

In the control group, all patients are taken care of by an aesthetic team, with medical pre surgical assessement and surveillance during surgery both performed by anesthetic nurses.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of complications

    complications occuring in operating theatre include systolic blood pressure > 200 mmHg or < 80 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure > 110 mmHg, heart rate < 45/mn for at least 1 mn, oxygen saturation (SpO2) <90% for at least 1 mn, impossibility to start or to pursue surgery because of patient condition.

    Measured: through study completion, up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nurses perform presurgical assessement and surveillance during surgery and the anesthetic team performs presurgical assessement and surveillance during surgery in people with Cataract, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild 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 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2018. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Incidence of complications (time frame: through study completion, up to 6 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 7 Dec 2018.
