About this study

Official title: Effect of Neck Extension on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter in Patients Undergoing Palatoplasty

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change of the optic nerve sheath diameter according to the change of the neck position in pediatric patients undergoing palatoplasty.

Read the detailed description

Palatoplaty is performed under neck extension in patients with cleft palate. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of neck extension on the ultrasonographic optic nerve sheath diameter during palatoplasty.

Conditions
Cleft Palate
Being tested
Neck extension

What participants receive

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

  • Neck extensionProcedure or surgery

    The neck extension is routine posture during palatoplasty. We will evaluate the change in optic nerve sheath diameters before and after neck extension.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in optic nerve sheath diameter

    Difference between the optic nerve sheath diameter measured during supine position without neck extension and the optic nerve sheath diameter measured during supine position with neck extension in patients undergoing palatoplasty

    Measured: 10 minutes after neck extension

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Difference in optic nerve sheath diameter

    Difference between the optic nerve sheath diameter measured during supine position without neck extension and the optic nerve sheath diameter measured during supine position with neck extension in patients undergoing palatoplasty

    Measured: at end of surgery with the neck extended

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cleft Palate, run by Asan Medical Center at 2 sites 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 3 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 4 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Difference in optic nerve sheath diameter (time frame: 10 minutes after neck extension). 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 4 Dec 2018.
