About this study

The aim of our study is to prevent unnecessary intensive care unit hospitalizations by developing a scoring system to detect low-risk patients after elective intracranial neurosurgery operation.

Read the detailed description

In this study, the data of patients who are planned to undergo craniotomy by neurosurgery will be collected as a file scan (medical histories, drugs used, demographic features, additional diseases, ASA class, pre-operative routine parameters, operation history, GCS, tumor histology, location, dimensions and intracerebral radiological data, laboratory values). The pre-operative Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) score will be recorded before the patient is taken into operation. Intraoperative; hemodynamic data of patients; highest and lowest values of heart rate, diastolic, systolic and mean arterial pressures, fluid and blood products given, anesthetic and other drugs administered, duration of anesthesia, duration of surgery, surgical position, blood loss, urine output and blood gas samples will be written from the anesthesia document after the operation is over. For the study, the application of the anesthesiologist for the patient will not be interfered. After the operation; extubation time, MAS score, use of mechanical ventilation, post-operative complications (moderate to severe intracerebral hemorrhage on brain CT, intracranial hypertension requiring post op surgical drainage, development of status epilepticus or seizures, the need for tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation after surgery, decrease in GKS, unmanageable agitation that requires restriction or sedation, need for respiratory failure and oxygen therapy, serious motor deficit and exitus) will be recorded in the service where the patient is sent. The post-operative QoR-15 score will be calculated 24 hours after the operation. Pre-operative and post-operative calculated scores of the patient will be evaluated and anesthesia recovery score will be created. With this recovery score, post-operative mortality and morbidity estimates will be made. The length of hospital stay of the patient will be recorded. Glasgow Result Scale (GOS) score will be determined 30 days after the patient operation. In this way, 1 month morbidity and mortality of the patient will be evaluated. The collected results will be statistically associated with anesthesia recovery and operation complications.

As a result, in our study; post-operative risk prediction score will be created in patients undergoing intracranial surgery with elective craniotomy.

What participants receive

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

  • Quality of Recovery-15Other

    Also called QoR-15

    Quality of Recovery-15 is a scale consisting of 15 questions indicating the recovery quality of the patient after anesthesia and a score between 0-150.

  • Glasgow Result ScaleOther

    Also called GOS

    Glasgow Outcome Scale; It is a scale developed to categorize people suffering from head trauma or non-traumatic acute brain injury into broad outcome categories. It shows postoperative mortality and morbidity of patients who underwent intracranial surgery.

  • Risk FactorsOther

    Pre-operative: medical histories, drugs used, demographic features, additional diseases, ASA class, pre-operative routine parameters, operation history, GCS, tumor histology, location, dimensions and intracerebral radiological data, laboratory values Intraoperative; hemodynamic data of patients; highest and lowest values of heart rate, diastolic, systolic and mean arterial pressures, fluid and blood products given, anesthetic and other drugs administered, duration of anesthesia, duration of surgery, surgical position, blood loss, urine output and blood gas samples Post-operation; extubation time, MAS score, use of mechanical ventilation, post-operative complications, hemodynamic data, blood gas data

What is being measured

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

  1. Quality of Recovery-15

    Quality of Recovery-15 is a scale consisting of 15 questions indicating the recovery quality of the patient after anesthesia and a score between 0-150.

    Measured: score change before surgery and 24 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Complication

    the development of complication or complications during hospitalization

    Complications:

    • Moderate to severe intracerebral hemorrhage confirmed in a brain CT scan (Midline shift in brain imaging ≥ 3 mm),
    • İntracranial hypertension requiring post op surgical drainage,
    • Status epilepticus or seizures,
    • The need for tracheal intubation or use of mechanical ventilation after surgery,
    • Decrease in GKS,
    • Unmanageable agitation that requires restriction or sedation,
    • Need for respiratory failure and oxygen therapy,
    • Unexpected serious motor deficit
    • Died

    Measured: during the hospital stay

  2. Glasgow Outcome Scale

    Glasgow Outcome Scale; It is a scale developed to categorize people suffering from head trauma or non-traumatic acute brain injury into broad outcome categories. It shows postoperative mortality and morbidity of patients who underwent intracranial surgery. Glasgow Outcome Scale is a five-point scale. 1 point is considered death and five points as good recovery. As the score increases, morbidity and mortality decrease.

    Measured: 30th day after the operation (1 time)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brain Tumor and Post-Op Complication, run by Trakya University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 5 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 7 Nov 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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.

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

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of Recovery-15 (time frame: score change before surgery and 24 hours after surgery). 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 7 Nov 2023.
