About this study

Official title: Comparison of Vasodilative Effects Between Sevoflurane and Desflurane Using Peripheral Perfusion Index

The aim of this study is to compare the peripheral perfusion index values produced by equi-MAC of sevoflurane and desflurane in patients undergoing single-agent inhalation anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

Ether derivative anesthetics, including sevoflurane and desflurane, have direct activity on vascular tissue and both are vasodilators. However, there has been no direct comparison of vasodilative effect between sevoflurane and desflurane in vivo in humans. Peripheral perfusion index derived from photoplethysmographic waveform reflects peripheral vasomotor tone. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to compare the peripheral perfusion index values produced by sevoflurane and desflurane at equipotent concentration in patients undergoing single-agent inhalation anesthesia.

What participants receive

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

  • SevofluraneDrug

    Also called Sevorane

    End-tidal concentration of sevoflurane is maintained at age-corrected 1.0 minimum alveolar concentration throughout the study period.

  • DesfluraneDrug

    Also called Suprane

    End-tidal concentration of desflurane is maintained at age-corrected 1.0 minimum alveolar concentration throughout the study period.

What is being measured

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

  1. peripheral perfusion index

    peripheral perfusion index value at a steady-state anesthesia of age-corrected 1.0 MAC

    Measured: After a 30-min waiting period from the induction of anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. mean arterial pressure

    mean arterial pressure at a steady-state anesthesia of age-corrected 1.0 MAC

    Measured: After a 30-min waiting period from the induction of anesthesia

  2. heart rate

    heart rate at a steady-state anesthesia of age-corrected 1.0 MAC

    Measured: After a 30-min waiting period from the induction of anesthesia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sevoflurane and Desflurane in people with Anesthesia, run by Kangbuk Samsung Hospital 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 21 Oct 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?

peripheral perfusion index (time frame: After a 30-min waiting period from the induction of anesthesia). 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 NCT03570164, 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 21 Oct 2019.
