Trial summary

The QTc interval is affected by heart rate, medications and changes in the autonomic nervous system. The endotracheal laryngoscopy, the necessary step during general anesthesia, prolongs QTc interval. Read more about this study

About this study

The QTc interval is affected by heart rate, medications and changes in the autonomic nervous system. The endotracheal laryngoscopy, the necessary step during general anesthesia, prolongs QTc interval. Changes in the flow of ion currents could result from the genetic variation of myocardial ion channels by gene polymorphism. This study is to investigate the association of cardiac ion channel related gene polymorphism and prolonged QTc interval after endotracheal intubation in adult patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. QTc interval

    QTc interval prolongs followed by laryngoscopy due to changes in the autonomic nervous system. The restoration of the prolonged QTc could also be affected by the balance of autonomic nervous system or changes in the related cardiac ion channels.

    Measured: Before anesthesia, Before laryngoscopy, Right after laryngoscopy, 5 minutes after laryngoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Emergence Delirium, run by Yonsei University 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 2 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 29 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?

QTc interval (time frame: Before anesthesia, Before laryngoscopy, Right after laryngoscopy, 5 minutes after laryngoscopy). 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 29 Sep 2020.
