About this study

Official title: Effect of Anesthetic Agents (Propofol, Sevoflurane) on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter(ONSD) in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Gynecology Surgery

The present study is to evaluate the effect of anesthetic agents ( propofol , sevoflurane) on intracranial pressure of female patients undergoing laparoscopic-robotic surgery.

Read the detailed description

Anesthetic agents (propofol and sevoflurane)have different effect on intracranial pressure. Sevoflurane when used over 0.5 minimum alveolar concentration, dilates intracranial vasculature and increases intracranial pressure. On the other hand, propofol decreases intracranial blood pressure and intracranial pressure is maintained or decreases.

Optic nerve sheath diameter is a feasible diagnostic tool in evaluating intracranial pressure. Female patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy or myomectomy are evaluated.

Being tested
Sevoflurane, Propofol
Medical subject headings
Myofibroma, Uterine Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • SevofluraneDrug

    Also called sevoflurane anesthesia

    1.5-2.5 vol % sevoflurane is used for maintenance of anesthesia.

  • PropofolDrug

    Also called propofol anesthesia

    2-5 mcg/ml of propofol is used for maintenance of anesthesia.

What is being measured

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

  1. difference of optic nerve sheath diameter

    optic nerve sheath diameter is measured using sonographic probe. (10 minutes after induction of anesthesia/ 5 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / 20 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / 40 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / skin closure)

    Measured: During the operation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sevoflurane and Propofol in people with Uterus Myoma and Uterine Cancer, run by Hallym University Kangnam Sacred Heart 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 1 inclusion and 6 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 Sep 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 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 of optic nerve sheath diameter (time frame: During the operation.). 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 Sep 2020.
