Trial summary

The effects of SGB on the cardiovascular system remain controversial since the cardiac sympathetic nerves pass through the stellate ganglion. SGB is expected to have an ameliorative effect on impaired coronary circulation and cardiac function and thus to be well suited to the treatment of angina pectoris and… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Preoperative Stellate Ganglion Block Can Cause Enhanced Recovery After Coronary Arteries Bypass Grafting Surgery

The effects of SGB on the cardiovascular system remain controversial since the cardiac sympathetic nerves pass through the stellate ganglion. SGB is expected to have an ameliorative effect on impaired coronary circulation and cardiac function and thus to be well suited to the treatment of angina pectoris and myocardial infarction

Read the detailed description

investigators chose left SGB being safer with regards conductivity changes when compared to right SGB, in the present study investigators are trying to examine and compare whether coronary reperfusion in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting who were subject to ultrasound guided left Stellate ganglion block (SGB ) performed in the induction of anesthesia could decrease post cardiopulmonary bypass ischemic changes, pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction leading to enhanced recovery.

Place of work: Ain shams university hospitals cardiovascular surgery academy, Cairo, Egypt.

Number and selection of participants:

40 participants, 20 in each group (2 groups).

Being tested
ultrasound guided left stellate ganglion block

  • ultrasound guided left stellate ganglion blockOther

    Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) has several established clinical indications Under complete aseptic precautions an ultrasound guided left stellate ganglion block was performed. (paratracheal technique ) ( ) The patient was placed in the supine position with the head in the neutral position and slightly extended. An initial scanning was done with the ultrasound to identify the structures in this area.

    The US probe was placed at the level of the cricoid cartilage. The transverse process of the sixth cervical vertebra was identified by its prominent anterior tubercle. Also, the longus colli muscle and its overlying prevertebral fascia were sought anterior to the C6 vertebral body and deep to the carotid artery. After skin infiltration with local anesthetic, the needle was inserted from lateral to medial using the in-plane technique. The aim was to inject the local anesthetics deep to the prevertebral fascia and above the longus colli

What is being measured

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

  1. change in heart rate

    heart rate( bpm )

    Measured: change in heart rate from base line

  2. change in Ejection Fraction

    Ejection Fraction(%)

    Measured: change in Ejection Fraction from base line

  3. change in blood pressure

    MAP, Systemic arterial pressure ( mmHg )

    Measured: change in blood pressure from base line

  4. change in cardiac rhythm

    incidence of AF or VF(BPM)

    Measured: change in cardiac rhythm from base line

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ultrasound guided left stellate ganglion block in people with Ischemic Heart Disease, run by wail abdelaal 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 Jun 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. 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?

change in heart rate (time frame: change in heart rate from base line). The study lists 4 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 Jun 2020.
