Trial summary

Anesthesia management of preterm infants is challenging for the anesthesiologist. Because of rudimentary build, many medical and physical problems have shown in treatment of disease such as complications, airway problems, temperature disregulation and deficient drug metabolism.

About this study

Official title: General Anesthesia Management in 15 Preterm Infant Undergoing Diode Laser Photocoagulation for Retinopathy of Prematurity: A Retrospective Study

Anesthesia management of preterm infants is challenging for the anesthesiologist. Because of rudimentary build, many medical and physical problems have shown in treatment of disease such as complications, airway problems, temperature disregulation and deficient drug metabolism. This retrospective study evaluates the perioperative management and postoperative course in premature infants undergoing diode laser photocoagulation (DLP) for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).

Read the detailed description

Participants retrospectively investigate clinical data and anesthesia process of 15 preterm infant from anesthesia charts with ROP who underwent DLP between 2014 and 2016. This presented retrospective study was confirmed by the Institutional Clinical Research Ethics Board. Neonates burns under 30 weeks gestation and low birth weigh under 2000 g were admitted to the study. No infant were excluded from the study. Preterm infants were appreciated before surgery and informed consent was obtained form their parents. We recorded gestational age, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status scores, post-conceptual age, weight at birth and surgery, duration of anesthesia and surgery, blood glucose values at surgery, the management of airway, total hospital stay period, analgesia management, complications and comorbidities. Bradycardia ( <90 beats/mean), desaturation (SpO2 <90%) and arrhythmia were recorded. Electrocardiography (ECG), pulse oximetric saturation (SpO2), end-tidal carbon dioxide pressure, heart rate (HR) and body temperature were monitored in operating room. Topical 0.5% proparacaine eye drops were administered to all infants routinely. Anesthesia was induced with thiopental 6 mg kg-1 and fentanyl 1 µg kg-1 and it was maintained with 50% oxygen 50% air 1%-3% sevoflurane in all cases. Inhaled anesthetic agent was not preferred for induction of anesthesia because of causing hypotension. The premature infants were intubated by same experienced anesthesiologist. In all infants, were intubated the patients without muscle relaxant under spontaneous ventilation. Perioperative complications, blood glucose value, devices in airway management and extubation value were recorded. After surgery, extubation was performed when spontanea ventilation was enough and extubation was recorded. All infants were taken to newborn intensive care unit (NICU). Data are reported as mean ± standard deviation and percentage(%).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anesthesia Management of Premature Infants, run by Inonu University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 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 management of airway (time frame: up to 2 years). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Feb 2017.
