About this study

Official title: Implication of Serum Fluoride Level Caused by Sevoflurane Versus Isoflurane Anesthesia Upon Renal Function After Kidney Transplantation.

Our primary goal is to investigate any hidden burden upon the grafted kidney from the increase of serum fluoride resulted from sevoflurane, versus isoflurane.

Read the detailed description

Eighty patients with end stage renal failure undergoing living donor kidney transplant under general anesthesia were included in this study, by using an open (non-blinded) study design, patients were randomly assigned to two groups, 15 patients in each. Randomization was done through computer generated random tables. Isoflurane group; anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane 1-2%. Sevoflurane group; anesthesia was maintained with Sevoflurane 1-2%.

A peripheral intravenous access was secured in the hand opposite to the functioning fistula and induction of anesthesia was done with propofol 2mg/kg, neuromuscular blockade was maintained with atracurium 0.6mg/kg and all patients were intubated and ventilated to maintain end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) concentration between 30-40 mmHg. Anaesthesia was maintained with 1-2% isoflurane (isoflurane group) or 1-2% sevoflurane (sevoflurane group) with fresh gas flow of 2 L/min. In both groups inhalational anesthetic was delivered in an air-oxygen mixture of 1:1 ratio. Analgesia was maintained with fentanyl 1µg/kg/hr. Mannitol and sodium bicarbonate was given immediately before reperfusion (de-clamping of renal artery). Intraoperative monitoring included heart rate, noninvasive blood pressure, oxygen saturation, ETCO2, ECG and central venous line was placed in the right or left internal jugular vein depending upon the presence of dialysis catheter. Hemodynamic target include: mean arterial pressure of > 80mmHg, CVP between 10-15 mm Hg to optimize cardiac output and renal blood flow.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sevoflurane and Isoflurane in people with Kidney Transplant; Complications, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 14 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 Egypt. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Serum fluoride (time frame: baseline before anesthesia). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03373266, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 14 Dec 2017.
