Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 25 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers

Study population: patients in Xuanwu Hospital for elective short urological surgery are selected. One day before surgery, visitors recorded basic information such as the patient's sex, age, BMI, ASA grade in the ward, carried out airway evaluation, and recorded the mouth opening to make sure they can be included

Who may be able to join

  • ASA Ⅱ~Ⅲlevel;
  • BMI18.5-30;
  • Those who intend to undergo short urological surgery ( operation time < 1h );
  • Age 25~75 years
  • Estimated amount of bleeding < 5ml / kg.

Who cannot join

  • Neuromuscular diseases or metabolic diseases;
  • Preoperative complicated with water and electrolytes disorders ( such as hypokalemia and hypocalcemia );
  • Serious hepatic and renal insufficiency and serious heart and lung diseases;
  • Predictable difficult airway;
  • Take drugs ( such as aminoglycoside, polymyxin, phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, etc. ) that affect the nerve-muscle transmission function or the efficacy of muscle relaxants before surgery;

About this study

Official title: ED50 of Cis-atracurium for Laryngeal Mask Incubation in General Anesthesia During Urology Surgery

  1. The muscle relaxants can improve the conditions of laryngeal mask incubation and reduce the related complications (such as laryngeal spasm and postoperative throat pain)
  2. The dosages of muscle relaxants used in various researches vary greatly.
  3. We are planning use the most classical method for determining the ED50 or half effective concentration of cis-atracurium using sequential method, which is also called " up and down method" and " ladder method".
Read the detailed description

The concordance of the current research is that muscle relaxants can improve the conditions of laryngeal mask incubation and reduce the related complications (such as laryngeal spasm and postoperative throat pain ) of laryngeal mask incubation. It is necessary to use muscle relaxants in laryngeal mask incubation under non-special circumstances. However, the dosages of muscle relaxants used in various researches vary greatly of normal endotracheal intubation. Previous studies have shown that the amount of muscle relaxant required for laryngeal mask intubation is smaller than that required for endotracheal intubation. Although the dosage of muscle relaxant required for tracheal intubation can ensure the smooth insertion of laryngeal mask airway, laryngeal mask airway is mostly used for short surgery, which is prone to postoperative muscle relaxation residue and prolongs the recovery. We planning use the most classical method for determining the ED50 or half effective concentration of cis-atracurium using sequential method, which is also called " up and down method" and " ladder method".

What is being measured

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

  1. Laryngeal mask insertion conditions(satisfactory/unsatisfactory)

    The evaluation criteria of laryngeal mask insertion conditions are based on siva lingam's six-point three-level table, which is evaluated from the following six aspects: the degree of mouth opening, difficulty in laryngeal mask insertion, cough, retch, laryngeal spasm, and body movement. Each item is divided into 3, 2 and 1 points according to the degree of severity, with a full score of 18 points, 16 points and above being satisfactory, and 16 points and below being unsatisfactory.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 day

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 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 22 Jan 2020. 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. 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?

Laryngeal mask insertion conditions(satisfactory/unsatisfactory) (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 day). 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 NCT03668262, 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 22 Jan 2020.
