Trial summary

Children generally undergo induction of anesthesia by inhalation of sevoflurane. Children with Down Syndrome experience bradycardia with induction of anesthesia using sevoflurane. It is unknown if this bradycardia is isolate or results in hypotension, thus requiring treatment. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Incidence of Hypotension in Children With Down Syndrome During Induction of Anesthesia With Sevoflurane

Children generally undergo induction of anesthesia by inhalation of sevoflurane. Children with Down Syndrome experience bradycardia with induction of anesthesia using sevoflurane. It is unknown if this bradycardia is isolate or results in hypotension, thus requiring treatment. Isolate bradycardia without hypotension does not require treatment and should be avoided as many of these patients have underlying cardiac anomalies.

Read the detailed description

Children generally undergo induction of anesthesia by inhalation of sevoflurane. This is particularly relevant for children with developmental delays as to avoid placement of an IV while awake. However, children with Down Syndrome experience bradycardia with induction of anesthesia using sevoflurane. It is unknown if this bradycardia is isolate or results in hypotension, thus requiring treatment. Isolate bradycardia without hypotension does not require treatment and should be avoided as many of these patients have underlying cardiac anomalies.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypotension on Induction, run by Baylor College of Medicine at 1 site in United States.

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 27 Jul 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Assessment of non-invasive blood pressure during induction (time frame: 5 minutes). 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 27 Jul 2022.
