About this study

Official title: The Effects of Sympathovagal Balance Before Tourniquet Deflation on a Decrease in Arterial Blood Pressure Following the Deflation During Total Knee Replacement Arthroplasty

This study evaluates the influences of the status of sympathovagal balance before tourniquet deflation on a decrease in arterial blood pressure following the deflation during total knee replacement arthroplasty

Read the detailed description

Patients present with different hemodynamic profiles after intraoperative tourniquet deflation during total knee replacement arthroplasty.

Sympathovagal balance can be measured before tourniquet deflation and might determine the hemodynamic response to tourniquet deflation.

Being tested
Tourniquet deflation
Medical subject headings

Receives: Procedure: Tourniquet deflation

What is being measured

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

  1. Sympathovagal balance

    The ratio of low-to-high frequency power of heart rate variability calculated from the 5-minute long electrocardiogram waveform

    Measured: During 5 minutes before tourniquet deflation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Noninvasive hemodynamic parameters

    Average cardiac index

    Measured: During 5 minutes before tourniquet deflation

  2. Maximum percent change in mean arterial blood pressure

    The discrepancy between minimum mean arterial blood pressure after tourniquet deflation and mean arterial blood pressure immediately before tourniquet deflation, which is divided by mean arterial pressure immediately before tourniquet deflation

    Measured: During 10 minutes after tourniquet deflation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypotension and Blood Pressure, Low, run by Daegu Catholic University Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 14 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 24 Jan 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

Sympathovagal balance (time frame: During 5 minutes before tourniquet deflation). 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 24 Jan 2018.
