About this study

This study is conducted to determine whether the occurrence of hypotension is reduced by the combined use of remimazolam and remifentanil compared to the conventional combination use of propofol and remifentanil. Patients enrolled in the study are infused continuously with either propofol or remimazolam from the start of anesthesia to the end of surgery.

Being tested
propofol group, remimazolam group
Medical subject headings
Cholecystitis, Acute

What participants receive

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

  • propofol groupDrug

    During induction, the propofol group starts the effect site concentration at 4.0 ng/ml with TCI and adjusts it to around 3.0 ~ 4.0 ng/ml after intubation to maintain an appropriate EEG-based depth of anesthesia.

  • remimazolam groupDrug

    In the remimazolam group, start remimazolam at 6 mg/kg/hr and adjust it to 1 mg/kg/hr after loss of consciousness to maintain an appropriate EEG-based depth of anesthesia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent of patients with hypotension event

    Measured: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. time-weighted average of hypotension

    time-weighted average of hypotension is calculated as the depth of hypotension below a MAP of 65 mm Hg (in millimeters of mercury) × time spent below a MAP of 65 mm Hg (in minutes) divided by total duration of operation (in minutes).

    Measured: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day

  2. dose of Norepinephrine or nicardipine

    Measured: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day

  3. difference of QOR-40 score

    QoR-40 was developed by Myles et al and is a questionnaire that can examine the quality of recovery and health status of patients in the early postoperative period. Patients will also fill out a questionnaire before surgery for comparison with postoperative scores.

    Measured: Baseline (preoperative period) and Postoperative day 1

  4. Heart rate variability

    Heart rate variability is a relatively easy and non-invasive measurement method that reflects the level of balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves at every moment using EKG records.

    Measured: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day

  5. Sedline(Psi)

    Measured: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing propofol group and remimazolam group in people with Acute Cholecystitis, run by Yonsei University 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 7 Nov 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 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?

Percent of patients with hypotension event (time frame: from start of drugs to end of anesthesia on the surgery 1 day). 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 7 Nov 2022.
