About this study

Official title: Effect of Orogastric Acetazolamide on Intraocular Pressure in Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomies

The purpose of the trial is to study the effect of acetazolamide administered via Ryle's tube on optic nerve sheath diameter in laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy patients.

Read the detailed description

this study was done on 40 American Society of Anaesthesiologist(ASA) I \& II live donors of either sex in adult age group undergoing laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy. After getting approval from institutes ethical committee and written informed consent, Donors were randomly allocated to either of two group. Anaesthesia was induced with injection morphine 0.1 mg/kg, injection propofol 1-2 mg/kg and vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg. Maintenance of anaesthesia was done with isoflurane and oxygen. After induction donors were placed into modified flank position with left side upward. Donors in Group A received Acetazolamide 5 mg/kg via orogastric tube soon after the induction of anaesthesia. Group S received saline as a placebo. investigator and subjects were blinded till the statistical analysis. Optic nerve sheath diameter was measured six times during perioperative periods by using high frequency ultrasound probe. Intra operative monitoring was done for Heart rate, Blood Pressure, pulse oximetry(Spo2), End Tidal Carbon Dioxide(ETCO2), Train Of Four(TOF) and Bi spectral index(BIS). Post operatively donors were reversed with injection neostigmine and glycopyrrolate.

once return of spontaneous ventilation was well established and patient becomes conscious oriented trachea was extubated and donors were shifted to post anaesthetic care unit(PACU). Postoperatively donors were monitored for Heart rate, Blood Pressure, Spo2, Comfort Score, Visual analog score for incisional site pain and shoulder tip pain, and Post operative nausea vomiting. Rescue analgesia was given to patients having comfort score less than 6.

After completion of study Optic nerve sheath diameter, pain scores and comfort scores was compared between both groups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acetazolamide and Normal Saline in people with Intracranial Pressure Increase, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Dec 2016. 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 India. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Optic nerve sheath diameter being assessed (time frame: baseline, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 5 minutes post 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 29 Dec 2016.
