About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Study of High Flow Nasal Cannula to Prevent Deoxygenation During Induction of General Anesthesia in Cesarean Section

Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) using high flow oxygen therapy for preoxygenation and oxygen supplementation during apnoea has shown promising results

Read the detailed description

Eeffective preoxygenation followed by apnoeic oxygenation enables anaesthesiologists to safely prolong the apnoea time which is the time (seconds) of apnea following preoxygenation and muscle relaxation before to peripheral oxygen saturations (SpO2) decreases by 2%.

Being tested
F Group, H Group
Medical subject headings
Hypoxia, Brain, Maternal Death

What participants receive

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

  • F GroupOther

    Also called face mask

    In Group F, pregnant females will be preoxygenated with 100% oxygen using a tight-fitting face mask at a rate of 6 L/min for 3 min with end-tidal gas monitoring.

  • H GroupOther

    Also called THRIVE

    In Group H, high-flow humidified oxygen warmed to 37°C will be delivered through nasal cannula at the rate of 30 L/ min for 30 seconds then 50 liters per minute for a further 150 seconds.

What is being measured

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

  1. measure the time of safe apnea

    The apnea time will start from the onset of cessation of breathing as evidenced by a flat line in the capnogram with the absence of chest movements

    Measured: 10 minutes after induction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing F Group and H Group in people with Hypoxic Brain Injury and Maternal Death, run by Alexandria University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2020. 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 Egypt. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Rehab A. Abd Elaziz, Ass. Prof. (01001073703 ext. 020, trcium2002@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

measure the time of safe apnea (time frame: 10 minutes after induction). 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 NCT04438798, 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 18 Aug 2020.
