Read the detailed description

The investigators want to study the effect of intravenous anesthesia on postoperative cognitive function in patients accepted gastroenteroscopy ,no additional medication or operation is involved.The investigators assess cognitive function through a series of tests for 4 times( within 3 days before the endoscopy ,2 hours after the endoscopy finished,1 week after the endoscopy,3 months after the endoscopy),including WCST、DSST、DST、HADS、MoCA,through self - contrast,the investigators will conclude whether intravenous anesthesia has bad impact on cognitive function or not .

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by WCST

    The Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) is a neuropsychological test of "set-shifting",.A number of stimulus cards are presented to the participant. The participant is told to match the cards, but not how to match; however, he or she is told whether a particular match is right or wrong. The test takes approximately 12-20 minutes to carry out and generates a number of psychometric scores, including numbers, percentages, and percentiles of: categories achieved, trials, errors, and perseverative errors

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by DST

    DST(Digit Span Test.),It is used to measure working memory's number storage capacity. Participants see or hear a sequence of numerical digits and are tasked to recall the sequence correctly, with increasingly longer sequences being tested in each trial. The participant's span is the longest number of sequential digits that can accurately be remembered. Digit-span tasks can be given forwards or backwards, meaning that once the sequence is presented, the participant is asked to either recall the sequence in normal or reverse order.Digit-span tasks are the most commonly used test for memory span, partially because performance on a digit-span task cannot be affected by factors such as semantics, frequency of appearance in daily life, complexity, etc.

    Measured: 4 months

  3. Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by DSST

    DSST(Digit Symbol Test).,The participants need to write the number referred to each symbol in 90 seconds.Number of hits are registered. The test measures short-term memory, visualspatial skills and attention.

    Measured: 4 months

  4. Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by MoCA

    MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), The visual spatial executive ability, naming,memory, attention, language fluency, abstract,thinking, delayed memory and directional force are included in the test, a total of 30 points. The subjects whose have less than 12-year of education were added 1 point in the testing result, with correction of bias in the degree of culture. The patients whose get higher scores indicate that the cognitive function is better, 26 points as normal.

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Cognitive Function, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Apr 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 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.

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wang J AN (057187783759 ext. 057187783759, HREC2013@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by WCST (time frame: 4 months). The study lists 4 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?
