About this study

The proposed research will determine whether a 6-item screening questionnaire previously shown to correlate with moderate or severe OSA is useful for predicting postoperative outcomes in children undergoing surgery under general anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

The survey will be administered preoperatively in the ENT clinic or the preoperative surgical unit. The following data will also be recorded: patient demographics (age, gender, BMI), surgical procedure, length of procedure and anesthetic, and smoking exposure. Based on differences in postoperative outcomes (e.g., supplemental oxygen requirement in the PACU) observed in the derivation cohort for the 6-item questionnaire, the study will enroll 1,000 patients to attain sufficient power for evaluating the 6-item questionnaire in the overall cohort and in demographically or clinically defined subgroups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Nationwide Children's Hospital at 1 site in United States.

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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Feb 2022. 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 United States. 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Liters of Oxygen (time frame: 1 hr post-op). 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.
