Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients aged more than 18 years old with American Society of Anesthesiology status I to III who will be scheduled to receive elective skull base tumor surgery under general anesthesia. Patients with trigeminal cardiac reflex during surgery will be included in the exposure group while patients without trigeminal cardiac reflex during surgery will be included in the non-exposure group.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients undergoing elective skull base tumor surgery.
  • Age ≥ 18 years old.
  • ASA class I to III.
  • All those who sign the informed consent form.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with severe heart disease (including patients with preoperative heart rate < 50 beats / min, severe arrhythmias, such as premature beats, paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, atrial flutter or fibrillation, patients with myocardial ischemia < 6 months, heart failure, myocarditis, pericarditis or cardiomyopathy).
  • Patients unable to complete preoperative cardiac assessment.
  • Patients with chronic kidney disease.

About this study

Official title: Trigeminal Nerve Cardiac Reflex During Resection of Cerebellopontine Angle Tumors and Postoperative Myocardial Injury: a Prospective Cohort Study

Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery is significantly related to postoperative 30-day mortality. Trigeminal cardiac reflex is one of the main causes of perioperative cardiac emergency. Therefore, the investigators' aim is to test the hypothesis that trigeminal cardiac reflex associates postoperative myocardial damage in participants undergoing skull base tumor surgery. The investigators will observe the association between trigeminal cardiac reflex and myocardial injury by measuring the concentration of plasma high sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnT) in participants after skull base tumor surgery.

Being tested
Trigeminal cardiac reflex, Non-trigeminal cardiac reflex

What participants receive

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

  • Trigeminal cardiac reflexOther

    Trigeminal cardiac reflex occurred during the cerebellopontine angle tumor surgery.

  • Non-trigeminal cardiac reflexOther

    No trigeminal cardiac reflex occurred during the cerebellopontine angle tumor surgery.

Non postoperative myocardial injuryNot described
Receives: Other: Non-trigeminal cardiac reflex

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of postoperative myocardial injury

    the elevation of plasma high sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) caused by myocardial ischemia or injury (exclude other causes such as sepsis, pulmonary embolism, atrial fibrillation, etc). The blood samples before and within 24 hours after operation will be collected and measured by Roche's fourth generation hs-cTnI. It is commonly defined as an elevation as any value above the 99th percentile upper reference limit for each specific troponin I assay

    Measured: Postoperative 1 day.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The duration time of trigeminal cardiac reflex during skull base tumor surgery.

    The duration time of trigeminal cardiac reflex during skull base tumor surgery.

    Measured: The whole skull base tumor surgery procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Injury and Trigeminal Cardiac Reflex, run by Beijing Tiantan 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 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 14 Feb 2025. 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. 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 incidence of postoperative myocardial injury (time frame: Postoperative 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 14 Feb 2025.
