About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Maintenance of Etomidate Combined With Sevoflurane in General Anesthesia: a Multi-center Randomized Controlled Study

This study was designed to use etomidate combined with sevoflurane intravenously to maintain anesthesia process under the monitoring of BIS. Propofol was used as the controls. Blood pressure and heart rate were recorded during operation. The VAS pain score was observed after surgery.To investigate whether this program can better maintain intraoperative hemodynamic stability, improve the quality of recovery, and reduce the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions.

Being tested
Etomidate, Propofol
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of intraoperative hypertension and hypotension

    Investigators will record the rate of hypertension and hypotension of participants during intraoperative period

    Measured: From the beginning to the end of surgery

  2. Ricker sedation-agitation score after surgery

    Investigators will record the Ricker sedation-agitation score of participants during recovery period after general anestesia

    Measured: 1 day (The period during patients wake up after surgery and general anesthesia in the recovery room.)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Postoperative pain scores measured by VAS score.

    Postoperative pain scores of participants will be assessed by using VAS score (0= no pain, 10= worse pain imaginable)

    Measured: One-three days after surgery.

  2. The incidence of PONV

    The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting of participants will be recorded

    Measured: One-three days after surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Etomidate and Propofol in people with General Anesthesia, run by Henan Provincial People's 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2024. 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.

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?

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?

Rate of intraoperative hypertension and hypotension (time frame: From the beginning to the end of surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Jun 2024.
