Trial summary

Muscle relaxant is usually needed for surgery. However, the optimal depth of neuro-muscular blockade is still on debate. Deep neuro-muscular blockade may benefit the patients during surgery, but may increase the risk of residual blockade after surgery. Residual blockade has been reported to increase risk of morbidity.

About this study

Official title: Effect of Perioperative Muscle Relaxant Model on Postoperative Outcomes in Chinese Patients

Muscle relaxant is usually needed for surgery. However, the optimal depth of neuro-muscular blockade is still on debate. Deep neuro-muscular blockade may benefit the patients during surgery, but may increase the risk of residual blockade after surgery. Residual blockade has been reported to increase risk of morbidity. In this study, we tend to observe the postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anesthesia. And to compare the outcomes in patients received different depth of neuro-muscular blockade.

Being tested
No Response to Train of Four Stimulation, 1-2 Response to Train of Four Stimulation
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Analogue Scale of pain at rest at 24 hours after surgery

    The intensity of pain is reported by the patient by provide a number between 0 and 10. 0 means no pain, and 10 means unbearable pain. Higher score means stronger pain.

    Measured: from end of surgery to 24 hours after surgery

  2. Visual Analogue Scale of pain at cough at 24 hours after surgery

    The intensity of pain is reported by the patient by provide a number between 0 and 10. 0 means no pain, and 10 means unbearable pain. Higher score means stronger pain.

    Measured: from end of surgery to 24 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Incidence of patients suffering pain at 24 hours after surgery

    Measured: from end of surgery to 24 hours after surgery

  2. Time to flatus

    Measured: from end of surgery to flatus, on an average of 3 days

  3. Time to extubation of the endotracheal tube

    Measured: from end of surgery to removal of the endotracheal tube, on an average of 15 minutes

  4. Incidence of major postoperative complications

    Incidence of major postoperative complications (including myocardial ischemia, pulmonary infection, respiratory failure, brain ischemia)

    Measured: from end of surgery to discharge from the hospital, on an average of 5 days

  5. Satisfaction score of the Surgeon to the condition during surgery

    The satisfaction of the Surgeon is measured by a scale from 0-10. 0 is for extremely unsatisfied, 10 is for totally satisfied. Higher score means higher satisfaction. The surgeon is asked to give a number between 0 and 10 to describe his satisfaction.

    Measured: from start of surgery to end of surgery, on an average of 2.5 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Complications, run by Air Force Military Medical University, China at 9 sites 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 2 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites 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.

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?

Visual Analogue Scale of pain at rest at 24 hours after surgery (time frame: from end of surgery to 24 hours after surgery). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04371588, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 2 Sep 2022.
