About this study

Official title: Effect of Nebulized Lidocaine, Dexmedetomedine and Their Combination on Haemodynamics During Direct Laryngoscopy Surgery. A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

Direct laryngoscopy (DL) procedure is typically done under general anaesthesia as a day case. It is a short but irritating.Various drugs and drug combinations have been used to attenuate stress response to DL.Administrating nebulized form of drugs can be effective with less systemic side effects. The primary outcome of this study is to compare the effect of premedication with nebulized lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, combination of both to placebo on haemodynamic response during DL procedures.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be transferred to the induction room 30 min prior to surgery. Standard monitors will be applied [pulse oximetry, non invasive blood pressure (NIBP) and electrocardiogram (ECG)]. Basal HR, systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP) and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) will be recorded. An intravenous 22-G cannula will be inserted, and all patients will be pre-medicated with intravenous midazolam 0.02 mg/kg, granisetrone 2mg and ranitidine 30 mg.

Patients will then be randomly and evenly allocated to one of 4 groups (45 patients each).

Nebulized solutions will be prepared by a pharmacist not participating in the study. Nebulization will be done with 100% oxygen (10 L/min) through facemask attached to a nebulizer. Patients will be asked to breath normally. Nebulization will continue till the solution in the nebulizer is all aerosolized.

Upon arrival to the operating room, routine monitors will be applied in addition to neuromuscular monitor and end tidal CO2 (ETCO2). General anaesthesia will be induced, after 5 min of preoxygenation, by intravenous fentanyl 1 μg/kg, propofol 1.5-2 mg/kg titrated to a loss of verbal response and rocuronium 1 mg/kg to facilitate endotracheal intubation. Mackintosh laryngoscope will be introduced when train of four (TOF) count reaches 1. High volume-low pressure endotracheal tube (size 5-5.5) will be inserted by senior anaesthesiologist. HR, SBP, DBP and MAP will be recorded immediately after intubation.

Anaesthesia will be maintained by sevoflurane 2-3% in oxygen to air ratio 1:1. Rocuronium 0.1 mg/kg when required. Positive pressure ventilation will be set to maintain ETCO2 30-35 mmHg.

SBP, DBP, MAP and HR will be recorded on arrival to the induction room (baseline), after endotracheal intubation, and then every 5 min throughout the surgery.

In case of hypertension (defined as SBP > 140 mmHg, DBP >90 mmHg or MAP 20% higher than baseline) and/or tachycardia (defined as HR 20% higher than baseline), boluses fentanyl 0.5 μg/kg will be given with a maximum dose of 2 μg/Kg. If hypertension and/or tachycardia continue after reaching the maximum dose of fentanyl, loading dose of esmolol 500 μg/Kg will be started, followed by infusion of 100-300 μg/kg/min. The use and total dose of esmolol will be recorded.

In cases of significant hypotension (defined as mean blood pressure < 70 mmHg), the patient will be treated initially with an intravenous (IV) fluid bolus of10 mL/kg normal saline, and if the condition persists, the patient will given 0.1-0.3 mg/kg IV ephedrine, which will be repeated every 3-5 minutes until the blood pressure is normalized. Significant bradycardia (defined as heart rate < 60 beat/min) will be treated, when needed, with IV atropine 0.02 mg/kg.

At the conclusion of surgery, sevoflurane will be discontinued and patients will inhale 100% O2. After return of spontaneous breathing, residual neuromuscular block will be reversed with intravenous neostigmine 0.05 mg/kg and glycopyrolate 0.01 mg/kg. Extubation will be done when the patient starts to show purposeful movements.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nebulized Lidocaine, Nebulized dexmedetomidine and Nebulized lidocaine and dexmedetomidine in people with Hemodynamic Instability, run by Ain Shams University at 2 sites 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 6 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 13 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Heart Rate (time frame: Every 5 minutes for 30-60minutes). 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 13 Jul 2021.
