Trial summary

This study investigates the influence of type of anesthesia on postoperative renal dysfunction in patients undergoing nephrectomy. The participants will be allocated to either the group receiving the total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol or the group receiving the inhaled anesthetics using desflurane.

About this study

Official title: The Influence of Type of Anesthesia on Postoperative Renal Function After Nephrectomy: a Randomized Controlled Study

This study investigates the influence of type of anesthesia on postoperative renal dysfunction in patients undergoing nephrectomy. The participants will be allocated to either the group receiving the total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol or the group receiving the inhaled anesthetics using desflurane.

Read the detailed description

Nephrectomy is considered as a standard therapy for renal cell carcinoma, but it can cause postoperative renal dysfunction, such as acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Therefore, it is imperative to identify modifiable risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury after nephrectomy in advance. According to a recent retrospective study, total intravenous anesthesia using propofol is significantly associated with lower incidence of acute kidney injury after nephrectomy, compared to the inhalation anesthesia. However, there is no prospective study which investigates the influence of type of anesthesia on postoperative renal function after nephrectomy. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the influence of type of anesthesia on acute kidney injury after nephrectomy by performing randomized controlled study.

What participants receive

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

  • PropofolDrug

    The induction and maintenance of anesthesia was performed by total intravenous anesthesia using propofol. In both groups, remifentanil is continuously infused throughout the surgery.

  • DesfluraneDrug

    The induction and maintenance of anesthesia was performed by inhalation anesthesia using desflurane. In both groups, remifentanil is continuously infused throughout the surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Propofol and Desflurane in people with Nephrectomy, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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 Dec 2024. 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 South Korea. 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 incidence of acute kidney injury (time frame: during the postoperative seven days). 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 2 Dec 2024.
