Use of Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool and Bispectral Index for Detection of Pain in Brain Injured Patients
An observational study of Intensive Care and Brain Injuries, run by Capital Medical University at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Brain injured patients are at high risk of pain due to the illness itself and a variety of nociceptive procedures in intensive care unit. Since the disorder of consciousness, speech, and movement, it is usually difficult for them to self-report the presence of pain reliably. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Use of Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool and Bispectral Index for Detection of Pain in Brain Injured Patients:A Prospective Observational Study
Brain injured patients are at high risk of pain due to the illness itself and a variety of nociceptive procedures in intensive care unit. Since the disorder of consciousness, speech, and movement, it is usually difficult for them to self-report the presence of pain reliably. The Critical-Care Pain observation Tool (CPOT) has been recommended for clinical use in the critically ill patients when self-report pain is unavailable. Besides, it seems that the bispectral index (BIS), a quantified electroencephalogram instrument, can be used for pain assessment along with the CPOT tool in some nonverbal critical ill patients (e.g., intubated and deep sedation). However, the validity and reliability of CPOT and BIS for pain assessment in brain injured patients are still uncertain so far. So the aim of this research is to investigate the value of CPOT and BIS for pain evaluation in this specific patient group.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT)Diagnostic test
Also called Bispectral Index (BIS)
The CPOT includes 4 behaviors: (1) facial expression, (2) body movements, (3) compliance with the ventilator, and (4) muscle tension. Each behavior is rated from 0 to 2 for a possible total score ranging from 0 to 8.
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Changes of the Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT) scores
The CPOT includes 4 behaviors: (1) facial expression, (2) body movements, (3) compliance with the ventilator, and (4) muscle tension. Each behavior is rated from 0 to 2 for a possible total score ranging from 0 to 8.
Measured: 1.Before nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure; 2.Within the first 5 minutes after nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure.
Changes of the bispectral Index (BIS) value
The BIS monitor is a noninvasive technology, which measures different electrocortical indices through electrodes placed on the patient's forehead. Its main variable, the BIS index, consists of a single number computed from a complex algorithmic equation based on the EEG data. Its value can range from 0 (complete EEG suppression) to 100 (fully awake).
Measured: 1.Before nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure; 2.Within the first 5 minutes after nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 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 China. 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?
Changes of the Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT) scores (time frame: 1.Before nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure; 2.Within the first 5 minutes after nociceptive/non-nociceptive procedure.). The study lists 2 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 11 Dec 2017.
