Trial summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the quality of recovery (QoR)-15 scores according to the use of maintenance anesthetics in the cervical spine surgery. Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) have been known to help reducing risks of postoperative nausea/vomiting and malignant hyperthermia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Quality of Recovery (QoR)-15 Scores According to the Use of Anesthetics During General Anesthesia in the Cervical Spine Surgery Patients: Sevoflurane vs. Remimazolam

The purpose of the study is to compare the quality of recovery (QoR)-15 scores according to the use of maintenance anesthetics in the cervical spine surgery. Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) have been known to help reducing risks of postoperative nausea/vomiting and malignant hyperthermia. However, it is still not enough to explain which is better between TIVA or inhalation anesthesia. In particular, there is no study to investigate overall postoperative functional recovery via QoR-15 in patients receiving TIVA with remimazolam. The hypothesis of the investigators study is that, in patients with cervical spine surgery, total intravenous anesthesia based on remimazolam can improve the the quality of recovery compared to inhalation anesthesia based on sevoflurane.

Being tested
Sevoflurane based inhalation anesthesia, Remimazolam based total intravenous anesthesia

What participants receive

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

  • Sevoflurane based inhalation anesthesiaDrug

    Sevoflurane group will be inducted with bolus of propofol 1% and maintained with sevofulrane as inhalation and TCI Minto model of remifentanil for general anesthesia.

  • Remimazolam based total intravenous anesthesiaDrug

    Remimazolam group will be inducted with remiamazolam at 6 mg/kg/h and maintained with remimazolam at 0.5-1.5 mg/kg/h and TCI Minto model of remifentanil for general anesthesia.

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference between two groups (sevoflurane vs. remimazolam) in QoR-15 scores

    The difference of scores in the Quality of Recovery (QoR)-15 survey on POD 1 Total 0-150, 0 (minimum), 150 (maximum), Higher scores means better.

    Measured: postoperative day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sevoflurane based inhalation anesthesia and Remimazolam based total intravenous anesthesia in people with Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) Surgery, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 25 Apr 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 South Korea. 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?

The difference between two groups (sevoflurane vs. remimazolam) in QoR-15 scores (time frame: postoperative day 1). 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 25 Apr 2023.
