About this study

Official title: Airway Management and Safety Aspects During Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) Compared to Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI) of Anesthesia in Non-cardiac Surgery

The aims of this observational study is to evaluate and compare feasibility of airway management during standardized TCI and RSI anesthesia induction.

Read the detailed description

The aims of this study are to evaluate and compare feasibility of airway management and risk for desaturation during standardized target controlled infusion (TCI) and rapid sequence induction (RSI) of anesthesia. A conventional way to induce anesthesia, i.e. manual injection of anesthetics, may be more accurate and predictable compared to dosing regimes based on complex mathematical algorithms used in TCI-systems. In addition, today many different models are presented and there is no consensus which kind of TCI-algorithm should be used universally. Moreover, dosing algorithms are most complex and challenging in underweight and morbid obesity. There are many publications on this field, but no data of feasibility of airway management can be found. Indeed, RSI induction is traditionally blamed to be risky and not recommended as a first choice.

  • Induction of anesthesiaProcedure or surgery

    Also called Anesthesia induction

    Standardized TCI and RSI anesthesia induction

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety time for apnea

    measurement of length of period for apnea during TCI and RSI induction by a timer

    Measured: 10min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adverse Effect and Anesthesia, run by Umeå University at 1 site in Sweden.

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 8 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 26 Sep 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 Sweden. 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?

Safety time for apnea (time frame: 10min). 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 26 Sep 2019.
