About this study

Official title: Effects Comparison Between Oral and Enema of Chloral Hydrate in Pediatric Ophthalmic Examination

To compare the clinical sedative effect and safety using 10% chloral hydrate during ophthalmic examinations for oral vs enema group.The patients were randomly divided into two groups (oral group and enema group) using a computer random number generator with a 1:1 allocation (simple randomization, odd number for oral group and even number for enema group).

Read the detailed description

To compare the clinical sedative effect and safety using 10% chloral hydrate during ophthalmic examinations for oral vs enema group.The patients were randomly divided into two groups (oral group and enema group) using a computer random number generator with a 1:1 allocation (simple randomization, odd number for oral group and even number for enema group).One hundred and twenty children aged from 3 to 36 months (5-15 kg) scheduled to ophthalmic examinations were randomly sedated by oral chloral hydrate(80 mg×kg-1, n = 60) or enema chloral hydrate(80 mg×kg-1, n = 60). The primary endpoint was successful sedation to complete the examinations including slit-lamp photography, tonometry, anterior segment analysis, and refractive error inspection. The secondary endpoints included onset time, duration of examination, recovery time, discharge time, any side effects during examination, and within 48 h after discharge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Demography (age, sex, weight, laterality and medical history)

    The demography of cataract and healthy children were recorded by using a semi-structured questionnaire

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Side effect

    record the following symptom: Vomit after administration、Cough、SpO2 < 95%、SpO2 < 90%、New vomiting、Resume normal activity over 8 hour、Poor appetite、Altered bowel habit

    Measured: the following 48 hour after using the drug

  2. the time of Sleepiness:Onset time (min)

    Measured: baseline

  3. the time of Sleepiness:Duration of examination (min)

    Measured: baseline

  4. the time of Sleepiness:Recovery time (min)

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing oral chloral hydrate and enema chloral hydrate in people with Congenital Cataract, run by Sun Yat-sen 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 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.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Aug 2017. 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?

Demography (age, sex, weight, laterality and medical history) (time frame: baseline). 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 8 Aug 2017.
