About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, and Controlled Study of the Safety and Efficacy in Gasless BABA(Bilateral Axillo-breast Approach) Robotic Thyroidectomy

In this study, a randomized controlled study was conducted between two groups of 14 classic recipients of Carbon dioxide insufflation during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy and 14 recipients of Gasless method during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy. This is a study to see if there is any difference in hemodynamic and metabolic changes and pain .

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Gasless BABAProcedure or surgery

    BABA robotic-thyroidectomy that is using elevation of flap instead of using carbon dioxide.

  • Classic BABAProcedure or surgery

    BABA robotic-thyroidectomy that is using carbon dioxide.

What is being measured

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

  1. heart rate

    heart rate in beats per minute

    Measured: Change from baseline heart rate at the end of surgery

  2. mean arterial pressure

    mean arterial pressure in mmHg

    Measured: Change from baseline mean arterial pressure at the end of surgery

  3. cardiac index

    cardiac index in L/min/m^2, divide the cardiac output by the person's body surface area, measured by the Vigileo monitor, normal range is 2.5 to 4.5L/min/m2

    Measured: Change from baseline cardiac index at the end of surgery

  4. cardiac output

    cardiac output in L/minute, calculated by multiplying the stroke volume by the heart rate, measured by the Vigileo monitor

    Measured: Change from baseline cardiac output at the end of surgery

  5. pH

    pH

    Measured: Change from baseline pH at the end of surgery

  6. PaCO2

    PaCO2 in mmHg

    Measured: Change from baseline PaCO2 at the end of surgery

  7. VAS(visual analog score)

    Visual Analog Score for pain, range from 0 to 10, Higher the values represents more pains

    Measured: change from baseline VAS up to 3days after surgery

  8. BHC(bottom hit count)

    bottom hit count from intravenous patient controlled analgesia for pain

    Measured: change from baseline BHC up to 3days after surgery

  9. number of analgesics

    number of analgesics(additional ketorolac uses)

    Measured: change from baseline number of analgesics up to 3days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gasless BABA and Classic BABA in people with Thyroidectomy and Thyroid Diseases, run by Inje 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 1 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 19 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 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?

heart rate (time frame: Change from baseline heart rate at the end of surgery). The study lists 9 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 19 Apr 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
