Trial summary

Patients who underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) were randomly allocated to general anesthesia (GA) or spinal anesthesia (SA) groups. Renal function was assessed using estimated glomerular filtration rate, and relative renal function was evaluated using nuclear medicine tests. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Influence of Anesthesia Methods on Surgical Outcomes and Renal Function in Retrograde Intrarenal Stone Surgery: a Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study

Patients who underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) were randomly allocated to general anesthesia (GA) or spinal anesthesia (SA) groups. Renal function was assessed using estimated glomerular filtration rate, and relative renal function was evaluated using nuclear medicine tests. Maneuverability and accessibility were evaluated after every surgery. We analyzed the influence of anesthesia methods on surgical outcomes and renal function in retrograde intrarenal surgery in a prospective, randomized controlled study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Renal function change according to anesthesia method

    using nuclear medicine tests with diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (99m Tc-DTPA)

    Measured: prior to procedure, and at 3 months after the procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing general anesthesia in people with Kidney Calculi, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 2 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 2024. 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?

Renal function change according to anesthesia method (time frame: prior to procedure, and at 3 months after the procedure.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03957109, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2024.
