About this study

Official title: Midazolam's Anterograde Amnesia Efficacy in Noisy Orthopedic Surgery: Does Midazolam Cause Effective Anterograde Amnesia in Noisy Orthopedic Surgeries?

Spinal anesthesia is one of the commonest choices of anesthesia for infraumbilical surgeries.The use of sedation has markedly increased patients' comfort and acceptance towards spinal anesthesia. The aim of this study is to investigate visual, recall, auditory recall, and sedation scores among patients receiving Midazolam for sedation during spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries.

Read the detailed description

Spinal anesthesia is one of the commonest choices of anesthesia for infraumbilical surgeries.The use of sedation has markedly increased patients' comfort and acceptance towards spinal anesthesia. The main goals of sedation for surgeries under spinal anesthesia are patient comfort, preservation of protective airway reflexes, and the help in the maintenance of hemodynamic stability during the surgical procedure. The aim of this study is to investigate visual, recall, auditory recall, and sedation scores among patients receiving Midazolam for sedation during spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries.

Being tested
single-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia., Double-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia., spinal anesthesia with no sedation.
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • single-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia.Drug

    Induction of neuraxial anesthesia was done using 2.8cc of 0.5 % Heavy Bupivacaine and 20mcg fentanyl injected intrathecally for all patients. Supplemental oxygen was given via facemask with capnography monitoring. Group O received 0.025mg/kg midazolam at skin incision.

  • Double-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia.Drug

    Induction of neuraxial anesthesia was done using 2.8cc of 0.5 % Heavy Bupivacaine and 20mcg fentanyl injected intrathecally for all patients. Supplemental oxygen was given via facemask with capnography monitoring. Group M received 0.025mg/kg midazolam at skin incision and repeated 5 minutes before maximum stimulation.

  • spinal anesthesia with no sedation.Procedure or surgery

    Induction of neuraxial anesthesia was done using 2.8cc of 0.5 % Heavy Bupivacaine and 20mcg fentanyl injected intrathecally for all patients. Supplemental oxygen was given via facemask with capnography monitoring.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative recall of auditory stimuli and intraoperative noise

    For auditory recall, a question was asked by the surgeon to the patient at maximum stimulation. Patients were examined for auditory recall by following-up the patients postoperatively in the inpatient department.

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Postoperative recall of visual stimuli

    For visual recall, a picture of a horse assigned at maximum stimulation, a cat at recovery room, and a bird after discharge to the inpatient department. Patients were examined for visual recall by following-up the patients postoperatively in the inpatient department.

    Measured: 4 months

Model description
Overall, 116 patients were enrolled, out of which 20 were excluded before start of study for the following reasons: contraindication for spinal anesthesia (n=10), preoperative administration of sedative agent (n=3), refusal to be enrolled in study (n=4), a patient with neurological disorder (Schizophrenia), a blind patient, and a deaf patient. Of the 96 patients included, 33 were enrolled in group C, 32 in group S; however, 2 patients requested a deeper level of sedation so an added dose of midazolam and fentanyl were given thus excluding them from study, and 31 patients in group R.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing single-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia., Double-dose midazolam for sedation under spinal anesthesia. and spinal anesthesia with no sedation. in people with Anesthesia and Orthopedic Surgery, run by University of Jordan at 1 site in Jordan.

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 3 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 3 Jun 2021. 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 Jordan. 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?

Postoperative recall of auditory stimuli and intraoperative noise (time frame: 4 months). 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 3 Jun 2021.
