About this study

Official title: Intraoperative Reversal of Muscle Relaxants During Transcranial Electrical Motor Evoked Potential Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Spinal Surgery

Transcranial motor evoked potential (TcMEP) monitoring is conventionally performed during neurosurgical procedures without or with minimal neuromuscular blockade (NMB) because of its potential interference with signal interpretation. However, full blockade offers increased anesthetic management options and facilitates surgery. Here, investigators want to assess the effect of Sugammadex during TcMEP in adult patients. Sugammadex is designed to encapsulate rocuronium and reverse rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. 64 patients undergoing thoracic or lumbar spinal surgery will be randomly allocated into sugammadex group or control group under a ratio of 1 to 1. Patients will receive either continuous infusion of rocuronium to produce blockade maintained at least two twitches in Train-of-Four (TOF), rocuronium infusion will be discontinued and 2 mg/kg of sugammadex will be infused while dura opening in sugammadex group. Whereas no muscle relaxant will be given after anesthetic induction in control group. The primary aim of this study is to compare mean value of amplitudes of TcMEPs in abductor pollicis brevis muscles of both upper extremities 5 minutes after dura opening.

What participants receive

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

  • SugammadexDrug

    Also called Bridion

    Sugammadex group received a rocuronium infusion producing blockade by qualitative train-of-four ≥2 at the ulnar nerve. 2 mg/kg of Sugammadex will be infused when conducting TcMEP

What is being measured

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

  1. The amplitude of MEP

    mean value of amplitudes of TceMEPs in abductor pollicis brevis muscles of both upper extremities

    Measured: 5 minutes after dura opening

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. The amplitude of MEP

    Mean value of amplitudes of TceMEPs in abductor pollicis brevis muscles of both upper extremities 10, 20, 30 and 60 minutes after dura opening.

    Measured: 10, 20, 30 and 60 minutes after dura opening

  2. The latencies of MEPs

    Mean value of latencies of TceMEPs in abductor pollicis brevis muscles of both upper extremities

    Measured: 5, 10, 20, 30 and 60 minutes after dura opening.

  3. Respiratory parameters

    Peak respiratory pressures and incidence of peak insufflation pressure of more than 25cmH2O.

    Measured: during the surgery

  4. Adverse effects of sugammadex

    Anaphylaxis, arrhythmias, post-procedure pain, nausea and vomiting, fever and diarrhea, etc.

    Measured: during and 24 hours after the surgery

  5. Incidence of body movement

    either nociception-induced movement (defined as "coughing" or reflexive limb movement temporally related to MEP stimulation) or excessive field movement (defined as grossly visible movement as determined by surgical and anesthesia teams).

    Measured: during the surgery

  6. Recurrence of neuromuscular blockade

    Recurrence of neuromuscular blockade at the end of surgery.

    Measured: At the end of surgery

  7. Motor function assessment

    SMP-a scale

    Measured: 5 days after surgery

  8. Total bleeding volume

    Total bleeding volume during the surgery

    Measured: during the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sugammadex in people with Sugammadex, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 9 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 6 Apr 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 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?

The amplitude of MEP (time frame: 5 minutes after dura opening). 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 6 Apr 2021.
