About this study

In anterior cervical disc surgery, head and neck extansion position and, surgical retraction used while reaching the anterior surface of the cervical vertebra can be affect the carotid blood flow and constituting a risk for cerebral ischaemia. In this study, we planned to investigate the relationship between head position and retraction, cerebral oxygenation and postoperative cognitive functions in patients undergoing anterior cervical disc surgery.

Being tested
Near infrared spectroscopy
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • Near infrared spectroscopyDevice

    The Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is the method used for monitorize the risk of the development of cerebral ischaemia while providing information about brain tissue oxygenation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)

    Evaluate the effect of head position and surgical retraction on brain oxygenization with NIRS. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a brain imaging method that measures light absorbance to calculate oxy-hemoglobin (oxy-HB) and deoxy-hemoglobin (deoxy-HB), which provides an indirect measure of brain activity, particularly in the frontal cortex.

    Measured: Intraoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mini-Mental State Examination

    Evaluate the effect of head position and surgical retraction on cognitive functions with using mini-mental state examination . A Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a set of 30 questions that commonly use to check for cognitive impairment (problems with thinking, communication, understanding and memory)

    Measured: 2 hours postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Disc Disease and Cervical Stenosis, run by Samsun 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 2 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 8 Feb 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 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. 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?

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) (time frame: Intraoperative). 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 NCT05717010, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Feb 2023.
