About this study

Official title: Study of the Hypnotic and Anti-nociceptive Components of Magnesium Using Electroencephalogram Spectral Entropy and Pupillometry During Total Intravenous General Anaesthesia

The aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of magnesium on the hypnotic effect of propofol.

Read the detailed description

The aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of magnesium on the hypnotic effect of propofol. To achieve this, the investigators will analyse the effect of magnesium on the brain concentrations of propofol required to achieve a State Entropy value between 50-60, which corresponds to the recommended depth of anaesthesia. Our study will also evaluate the intraoperative anti- nociceptive effect of magnesium using pupillometry and its two indices, PPI and PRD

Conditions
Anesthesia
Being tested
Magnesium sulfate IV, Placebo

What participants receive

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

  • Magnesium sulfate IVDrug

    Infusion of magnesium sulphate 50 mg/kg (eq. 0.5ml/kg of magnesium sulphate 100mg/ml)

  • PlaceboDrug

    Infusion of NaCl (sodium chloride) 0.9% (placebo eq. 0.5ml/kg of NaCl 0.9%)

What is being measured

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

  1. Propofol target concentration

    The target concentration of Propofol TCI (target-control infusion) to achieve a state entropy value between 50-60

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Morphine consumption

    Morphine consumption titrated in the recovery room and morphine equivalents claimed during the first 24 hours postoperatively

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 months

  2. PPI Measure

    PPI (pupillary pain index) by pupillometry with "AlgiScan®" monitoring, before endotracheal intubation and with a State Entropy of 50-60, then every 5 min between endotracheal intubation and surgical incision

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 months

  3. PRD Measure

    PRD (pupillary reflex dilatation) during laryngoscopy maintained for 30 sec, surgical incision and 10min after surgical incision

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Magnesium sulfate IV in people with Anesthesia, run by University of Liege at 1 site in Belgium.

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 3 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 19 Aug 2021. 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 Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Pierre-Yves Hardy, MD (003242844858, pyhardy@chuliege.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Propofol target concentration (time frame: through study completion, an average of 3 months). 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 19 Aug 2021.
