Trial summary

Investigators researched the effect of two different types of drugs on core body temperature during magnetic resonance imaging. The hypothesis is in ketamine group, thermo disregulation is not as distinct as in propofol group, due to its positive effect on thermo regulation Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Does Magnetic Resonance Imaging Increase Core Body Temperature in Anesthetized Children? Evaluating the Effects of Propofol and Ketofol

Investigators researched the effect of two different types of drugs on core body temperature during magnetic resonance imaging. The hypothesis is in ketamine group, thermo disregulation is not as distinct as in propofol group, due to its positive effect on thermo regulation

Read the detailed description

Intravenous anesthetics may impair thermoregulation. Absorption of radiofrequency waves by the body surface may result in heating, especially in small children during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Investigators applied two different intravenous anesthetics as propofol and ketamine and studied the effect of these drugs on core body temperature.

All patients aged between 6 months-10 years were administered midazolam and atropine. After that 1 mg/ kg of propofol was applied in group I, and 0,1 ml/kg of propofol ketamine mixture ( 10 mg/ml each) was applied in group II. Core body temperatures were taken before and after MRI and compared.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
propofolActive comparatorbody core temperature was measured from tympanic membrane after 1 mg/kg propofol administration, before and after magnetic resonance imaging
Receives: Drug: propofol; Drug: Ketamine propofol mixture
ketofolActive comparatorbody core temperature was measured from tympanic membrane after 0,1 ml/kg administration of ketamine propofol mixture of 10 mg/ml both, before and after magnetic resonance imaging
Receives: Drug: propofol; Drug: Ketamine propofol mixture

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in core body temperature

    temperature was taken from tympanic membrane bilaterally before and after MRI. If temperature change was more or les than 0.1 degrees celsius the patient was considered as warmer or cooler.

    Measured: during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing propofol and Ketamine propofol mixture in people with Children, run by Istanbul University.

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 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 19 Feb 2018. 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.

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?

Change in core body temperature (time frame: during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure). 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 19 Feb 2018.
