About this study

Official title: Effect of Postoperative Prolonged Sedation With Dexmedetomidine After Successful Reperfusion With Endovascular Thrombectomy on Long-term Prognosis in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke (PPDET)

Dexmedetomidine can attenuate the activity of the sympathetic nervous system under stress response and improve ischemia-reperfusion injury. The investigators hypothesized that the prolonged sedation of dexmedetomidine after successful reperfusion of endovascular thrombectomy may improve the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients.

Read the detailed description

Endovascular treatment with mechanical thrombectomy is the standard treatment for acute large vessel occlusion.

Dexmedetomidine is a commonly used sedative in endovascular thrombectomy of acute ischemic stroke.

Dexmedetomidine can attenuate the activity of the sympathetic nervous system under stress response and improve ischemia-reperfusion injury.

The investigators hypothesized that the prolonged sedation of dexmedetomidine after successful reperfusion of endovascular thrombectomy may improve the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients.

Intervention groupExperimentalDexmedetomidine 0.1~1.0 μg/kg/h for 24h after patients finished endovascular thrombectomy and returned to ICU. Maintain Ramsay score 2-3.
Receives: Drug: Dexmedetomidine prolonged sedation
Control groupPlacebo comparatorAn equal dose of saline 24h after patients finished endovascular thrombectomy and returned to ICU. If the Ramsay sedation score is 1, propofol will be administrated to maintain the Ramsay sedation score at 2 to 3.
Receives: Drug: 0.9% saline

What is being measured

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

  1. The favorable functional outcome of stroke-related disability rate

    Modified Rankin Scale ≤ 2 points. mRS range from 0 to 6, higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 90 ± 14 days after thrombectomy

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Changes of National Institute of Health stroke scale

    NIHSS (admission) - NIHSS (24h)

    Measured: 24 ± 6 hours after thrombectomy

  2. Changes of National Institute of Health stroke scale

    NIHSS (admission) - NIHSS (7day)

    Measured: on the 7-day or discharged day whichever comes first, up to 30 days

  3. Changes of ischemic penumbra

    The difference of infarct volume between preoperative and 7-day or discharged day

    Measured: on the 7-day or discharged day whichever comes first, up to 30 days

  4. Length of ICU stay

    Length of ICU stay

    Measured: From the date of admission until discharged from ICU, up to 30 days

  5. Length of hospital stay

    Length of hospital stay

    Measured: From the date of admission until discharged from hospital, up to 30 days

  6. adverse events at 90-day after operation

    hypotension (systolic blood pressure under 90mmHg), bradycardia (heart rate under 50bpm), hypoxemia (pulse oxygen saturation under 90%), and serious events such as death and life-threatening events

    Measured: within 90-day after thrombectomy

  7. mortality rate at 90-day after operation

    Death after thrombectomy within 90-day after operation

    Measured: within 90-day after thrombectomy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine prolonged sedation and 0.9% saline in people with Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Beijing Chao Yang 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 6 inclusion and 11 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 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 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. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Lina Yang (18611635556, Thoth_safin@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The favorable functional outcome of stroke-related disability rate (time frame: 90 ± 14 days after thrombectomy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04916197, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Dec 2023.
