About this study

Official title: The Effect of Glasgow Coma Scales on General Anesthesia in Neurosurgery Patients

The study evaluates the general anesthesia management with BIS monitorization in terms of hemodynamic stability, drug concentrations and drug consumption in patients who underwent surgery due to intracranial pathology and who were divided in three different GCS groups.

Read the detailed description

BIS monitoring is mostly used for anesthesia depth and sedation level follow-up, however it can also be used for monitoring consciousness after resuscitation of cases with acute brain injury and cardiac arrest. It is not always possible to monitor and objectively measure the changes in the level of consciousness in clinical practice. Therefore, device-based methods have been introduced in monitoring the state of consciousness. Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring may be preferred in follow up of the state of consciousness in critical patients such as those with acute brain injury, in terms of ease of use, ability to obtain numerical results and continuous monitoring. BIS monitoring is mostly used for follow up of anesthesia depth and sedation level, while it can also be applied for monitoring state of consciousness following resuscitation in cases with acute brain injury and cardiac arrest.In this study, we aimed to investigate general anesthesia management performed by bispectral index monitoring in patients who underwent surgery due to intracranial pathology and with different Glasgow Coma Scales.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bispectral index (BIS) monitoringDevice

    When the patients were taken to the operation table, they were monitored with the BIS. we used sevoflurane drug

  • SevofluraneDrug

    we used sevoflurane drug at inoperative

What is being measured

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

  1. BIS, Consumption of the inhalation agents

    Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative BIS values were recorded. The total

    amount of opioid consumed was recorded from the infusion pump.

    Measured: 200 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring and Sevoflurane in people with Anesthesia Awareness, run by Trakya 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 11 May 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?

BIS, Consumption of the inhalation agents (time frame: 200 minutes). 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 May 2018.
