About this study

Official title: Effects of Dexmedetomidine on Oxygenation Index, Respiratory Index and Inflammatory Factors in Patients Undergoing Palatopalatyngoplasty

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine on oxygenation index, respiratory index and inflammatory factors, and to explore the protective effect of the dexmedetomidine on respiratory function in patients undergoing palatopalatyngoplasty.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is common among people, especially among obese people, Which is characterized by periodic or complete upper airway obstruction and hypoxia during sleep. Intermittent hypoxia contributes to the lung damage by increased oxidative stress, inflammation. Some researchers suggested that dexmedetomidine can inhibit inflammatory reaction and lessen the damage of respiratory function. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine on oxygenation index, respiratory index and inflammatory factors, and to explore the protective effect of the dexmedetomidine on respiratory function in patients undergoing palatopalatyngoplasty.

What participants receive

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

  • dexmedetomidineDrug

    receive a loading infusion of dexmedetomidine (1ug/kg)for 20min follow by a maintenance infusion (0.4ug/kg/h) continued until the end of the surgery

  • normal salineOther

    receive matching placebo (equal volum of normal saline)

What is being measured

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

  1. The Oxygenation Index

    Arterial blood samples were sampled before anaesthesia induction and immediately after surgery for the oxygenation index by using blood gas analyzer.

    Measured: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery

  2. The Respiratory Index

    Arterial blood samples were sampled before anaesthesia induction and immediately after surgery for the respiratory index by using blood gas analyzer.

    Measured: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change of tumor necrosis factor-α before anesthesia and immediately after surgery

    Blood samples were sampled before anaesthesia induction and immediately after surgery for the serum tumor necrosis factor-α,which were analyzed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Measured: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery

  2. Change of interleukin-6 before anesthesia and immediately after surgery

    Blood samples were sampled before anaesthesia induction and immediately after surgery for the serum interleukin-6, which were analyzed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Measured: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery

  3. Change of interleukin-10 before anesthesia and immediately after surgery

    Blood samples were sampled before anaesthesia induction and immediately after surgery for the serum interleukin-10, which were analyzed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Measured: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dexmedetomidine and normal saline in people with Adverse Effect, run by General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University at 1 site in China.

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.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2018. 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ma Hanxiang (+86-13519591508, mahanxiang@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Oxygenation Index (time frame: Intraoperative and immediately after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03612440, 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 2 Aug 2018.
