Trial summary

This study aims to investigate the inner mechanism during different dehydration therapies such as mannitol injection and hypertonic saline. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to monitor the physiological changes noninvasively including oxyhemoglobin ([HbO2])… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Alternations of Multi-parameters Including Hemodynamic Concentration and Water Levels During Dehydration Therapy on Brain Edema Patients

This study aims to investigate the inner mechanism during different dehydration therapies such as mannitol injection and hypertonic saline. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to monitor the physiological changes noninvasively including oxyhemoglobin ([HbO2]), deoxy-hemoglobin ([Hb]), the derived change in blood volume ([tHb]) and water concentration on the forehead of brain edema patients.

Read the detailed description

Cerebral edema, as an acute head injury along with high intracranial pressure, has been of great interest over decades in clinical neurosurgery research. Dehydration therapy is a common clinical method to decrease intracranial pressure. This study aims to investigate the inner mechanism during different dehydration therapies such as mannitol injection and hypertonic saline. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to monitor the physiological changes noninvasively including oxyhemoglobin ([HbO2]), deoxy-hemoglobin ([Hb]), the derived change in blood volume ([tHb]) and water concentration on the forehead of brain edema patients. Then the investigators compared the changes process of multiple physiological parameters during different dehydration therapies.

What participants receive

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

  • Mannitol injectionProcedure or surgery

    Standard mannitol injection to decrease intracranial pressure of patients

  • Hypertonic saline injectionProcedure or surgery

    Standard Hypertonic saline injection to decrease intracranial pressure of patients

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mannitol injection and Hypertonic saline injection in people with Hemodynamic Instability and Water on the Brain, run by Ting Li.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Δ[HbO2] (time frame: 2 weeks). 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?
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 24 Jul 2019.
