  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: An observational prospective study was undertaken in the Especialidades Médicas Metropolitanas Sociedad Anónima (EMMSA) Clinic in Bello, Antioquia, Colombia. The investigators included patients ≥ 18 years old diagnosed with an unruptured cerebral aneurysm or SAH (Hunt \& Hess grade I or II) undergoing endovascular treatment under general anesthesia between April 2015 and February 2017. The investigators excluded patients diagnosed with a cerebral aneurysm undergoing craniotomy and clipping and patients with SAH (Hunt \& Hess grade > II).

Who may be able to join

  • Patients ≥ 18 years old
  • Diagnosed with an unruptured cerebral aneurysm or SAH (Hunt \& Hess grade I or II)
  • Planned to undergo endovascular therapy under general anesthesia between April 2015 and February 2017 in the Especialidades Médicas Metropolitanas Sociedad Anónima (EMMSA) Clinic in Bello, Antioquia, Colombia

Who cannot join

  • Patients diagnosed with a cerebral aneurysm undergoing craniotomy and clipping and patients with SAH (Hunt \& Hess grade > II).

About this study

Official title: The Use of the Classic Laryngeal Mask Airway in Patients With Cerebral Aneurysm Undergoing Endovascular Therapy

Background: Earlier treatment and resolution for patients with cerebral aneurysms is now possible due to earlier diagnosis. This observational study aims to evaluate the intraoperative cardiovascular parameters in patients with cerebral aneurysms undergoing endovascular therapy.

Method: This is an observational prospective study. Patients ≥ 18 years old diagnosed with an unruptured cerebral aneurysm or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) (Hunt \& Hess grade I or II) undergoing endovascular treatment under general anesthesia between April 2015 and February 2017 were included. Non-invasive measurements of hemodynamic variables were collected at six time points during the procedure (T1 to T6). Statistical analysis was performed by using central tendency measures for quantitative variables and absolute / relative frequency measurements for qualitative variables.

Objective

  • To assess the usefulness of general anesthesia with Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA)-Classic for the endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms based on cardiovascular stability analysis Data collection Anesthetic protocol was standardized for all patients consisting of an intravenous induction with fentanyl (1-2 μg/kg), lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg), propofol (2 mg/kg), and dexamethasone (8 mg) followed by the insertion of the LMA-Classic. Sevoflurane with a minimal alveolar concentration (MAC) between 0.9 and 1.1%, dipyrone (2 gr IV), and morphine (0.05 mg/kg IV) were used during maintenance. Tidal volume (VT) and respiratory rate (RR) were adjusted to 7 ml/Kg and 12-14 per minute respectively. Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring included mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation, and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2).

Data was collected within six time points: Time point 1: before induction, Time point 2: after induction, Time point 3: after LMA-Classic insertion, Time point 4: during the endovascular procedure, Time point 5: during coiling, and Time point 6: at the end of the procedure and LMA-Classic removal.

The following demographic and clinical data were collected: age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status (ASA-PS), total procedure time, comorbidities, aneurysm location, and associated clinical manifestations. Adverse events, such as intraoperative aneurysm rupture or need for endotracheal intubation, will be recorded.

Ethical considerations Approvals were obtained from the ethics committees at Antioquia University and Especialidades Médicas Metropolitanas Sociedad Anónima (EMMSA) Clinic. Patients signed an informed consent and confidentiality agreement before participating.

Statistical analysis Data was collected in an excel spreadsheet (Microsoft Excel 2010®), SAS 9.4 (SAS Institute, Cary, N.C.) was used for subsequent analysis. Continuous variables were summarized as means and standard deviations (SD). Categorical variables were summarized as frequencies and percentages. Linear mixed models were fit to model continuous clinical variables over time using contrasts to test differences between time points. P-values less than 0.05 were considered to be statistically significant.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hemodynamic changes (changes from baseline in Heart Rate and Mean Arterial Pressure)

    • To assess the usefulness of general anesthesia with LMA-Classic for the endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms based on cardiovascular stability analysis

    Measured: Outcome measure will be assessed from baseline (defined as time point 1, before induction) until the end of the surgery and laryngeal mask removal (defined as time point 6). Data will be reported within one year after study completion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebral Aneurysm Unruptured and Cerebral Aneurysm, run by Universidad de Antioquia.

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 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 19 Dec 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?

Hemodynamic changes (changes from baseline in Heart Rate and Mean Arterial Pressure) (time frame: Outcome measure will be assessed from baseline (defined as time point 1, before induction) until the end of the surgery and laryngeal mask removal (defined as time point 6). Data will be reported within one year after study completion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03288519, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 Dec 2018.
