About this study

The relationship between the target effect site concentration of remifentanil and the pupil diameter and reactivity in response to a standard noxious stimulus in cardiac surgery during extra corporeal circulation will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

Anaesthesia will be induced with propofol to obtain loss of consciousness LOC in 30 patients who will undergo cardiac surgery requiring extracorporeal circulation and standardized support will be given to them till the extracorporeal circulation period. Thereafter, remifentanil will be titrated by increments of 0,5, from 1 up to 5 ng ml-1 during the extra corporeal circulation period. In the awake state, at LOC and at each plateau level of remifentanil CeT, mean arterial pressure, and BIS will be recorded. Pupil size and dilatation after a 60 mA, 100 Hz tetanic stimulation will be measured at LOC and at each plateau level of remifentanil.

What is being measured

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

  1. Validation the use of pupillometry as a method of evaluation of nociception in cardiac surgery during the extracorporeal circulation period.

    To prove the existence of a linear correlation between the change in pupillary diameter and the concentration of remifentanil in cardiac surgery during the extracorporeal circulation period

    Measured: During surgery / one day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Validity of pupillometry nociception measurements in moderate hypothermia

    To prove existence of a linear correlation between the change in pupillary diameter and the remifentanil concentration in moderate hypothermia.

    Measured: During surgery / one day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pupil and Analgesics, run by University Hospital, Tours at 1 site in France.

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 13 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 27 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 France. 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?

Validation the use of pupillometry as a method of evaluation of nociception in cardiac surgery during the extracorporeal circulation period. (time frame: During surgery / one day). 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 27 Feb 2019.
