About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare the changes of QTc, Tp-e interval, and Tp-e/QT ratio, Tp-e/QTc ratio on the ECG during robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy under sevoflurane, desflurane and total intravenous anesthesia

Being tested
sevoflurane, desflurane, propofol and remifentanil

What participants receive

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

  • sevofluraneDrug

    Also called Group S

    anesthesia was induced with propofol (1.5 mg/kg) and target controlled infusion (TCI) of remifentanil (2-3 ng/mL of targeted effect site concentration (Ce). After intubation, inspired concentration of sevoflurane (0.8-1 MAC) and the Ce of remifentanil TCI (1.0-2.0 ng/ml) were adjusted to a BIS target level for hypnosis of 40-60 during surgery.

  • desfluraneDrug

    Also called Group D

    anesthesia was induced with propofol (1.5 mg/kg) and target controlled infusion (TCI) of remifentanil (2-3 ng/mL of targeted effect site concentration (Ce). After intubation, inspired concentration of desflurane (0.8-1 MAC) and the Ce of remifentanil TCI (1.0-2.0 ng/ml) were adjusted to a BIS target level for hypnosis of 40-60 during surgery.

  • propofol and remifentanilDrug

    Also called Group T

    anesthesia was induced with an effect-site concentration of 3-4 μg/ml propofol and 2-3 ng/ml remifentanil using target-controlled infusion (TCI). After intubation, The effect site TCI of propofol (2-3 μg/ml) and remifentanil (1.0-2.0 ng/ml) was adjusted to maintain the desired hypnosis (40-60 of the BIS value) during surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. heart-rate corrected QT(QTc) interval

    QTc intervals (msec) are recorded from ECG

    Measured: participants will be followed for the duration of surgery, an expected average of 4 hours.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Tp-e interval

    Measured: Baseline (T0), 10 min after induction (T1), 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min after Trendelenburg position (T2-6), 5 min after desufflation and resuming the supine position (T7), end of surgery (T8)

  2. Tp-e/QT ratio

    Measured: Baseline (T0), 10 min after induction (T1), 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min after Trendelenburg position (T2-6), 5 min after desufflation and resuming the supine position (T7), end of surgery (T8)

  3. Tp-e/QTc ratio

    Measured: Baseline (T0), 10 min after induction (T1), 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min after Trendelenburg position (T2-6), 5 min after desufflation and resuming the supine position (T7), end of surgery (T8)

  4. Heart rate

    Measured: Baseline (T0), 10 min after induction (T1), 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min after Trendelenburg position (T2-6), 5 min after desufflation and resuming the supine position (T7), end of surgery (T8)

  5. blood pressure

    Measured: Baseline (T0), 10 min after induction (T1), 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min after Trendelenburg position (T2-6), 5 min after desufflation and resuming the supine position (T7), end of surgery (T8)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing sevoflurane, desflurane and propofol and remifentanil in people with Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy, run by Yonsei University 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 Feb 2019. 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?

heart-rate corrected QT(QTc) interval (time frame: participants will be followed for the duration of surgery, an expected average of 4 hours.). 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 Feb 2019.
