About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preoperative Anxiolysis With Intravenous Midazolam on Intraoperative Sevoflurane Gas Consumption: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

This prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is performed after obtaining written informed consent of patients who are scheduled for elective general surgery. After the admission to the preoperative unit 30 minutes before the surgery, The preoperative anxiety of patients is evaluated by The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Patients are randomly assigned to one of two groups in a 1:1 ratio by a computer-generated list. Patients receive midazolam IV at 0.04 mg/kg (group M) and an equal volume of saline IV (group C, control group). Anesthesia is induced with 2mg/kg of IV propofol. At a dose of 0.6 mg/kg, IV rocuronium bromide is given for neuromuscular blockade. Anesthesia is maintained at 2% sevoflurane. At the end of the surgery, anesthesia is terminated and the awake patients are extubated.

Read the detailed description

An equal depth of anesthesia is achieved by evaluating an entropy value of 40-50 during the operation. Heart rate, blood pressure, the amount of sevoflurane consumed (ml), end-tidal sevoflurane concentration (%), sevoflurane MAC, inspiratory sevoflurane (%) are recorded at baseline and 15-minute intervals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Midazolam and Saline in people with Midazolam and Sevoflurane, run by Cukurova University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 6 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 1 May 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

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?

Sevoflurane consumption (time frame: 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05371600, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 1 May 2024.
