About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Dexmedetomidine-Propofol and Ketamine-Propofol Administration for Sedation of CT Guided Bone Biopsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of a dexmedetomidine-propofol combination and a ketamine-Propofol combination for sedation of CT guided bone biopsy.

Read the detailed description

Assessment of boney lesions is an common activity in the care of cancer patients. CT guided Percutaneous needle biopsies have a low complication rate. usually, this procedure is done under sedation.

Propofol is a non-barbiturate hypnotic and sedative. It facilitates gamma-aminobutyric acid mediated inhibitory neurotransmission. It's known to have anti-emetic, antipruritic, anticonvulsant and amnestic effects. Despite being effective and potent, Propofol's main disadvantages is its dose-dependent hypotension and respiratory depression .Ketamine is a phencyclidine derivative which acts as a N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. It is a dissociative anesthetic and provides some analgesia. It maintains airway reflexes and spontaneous respiration. Combining Propofol and ketamine preserves the sedative and analgesic efficacy while reducing their adverse effects. Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective α2-agonist. It is eight times more specific compared with clonidine. It has a perioperative anxiolytic, sedative properties as well as some analgesic properties .Dexmedetomidine is usually used for mild to moderate sedation and Propofol could be added to deepen the level of sedation

What is being measured

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

  1. Heart rate

    change in heart rate

    Measured: before administration (baseline), every 10 minutes during the procedure, every 15 minutes for one hour postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Mean arterial blood pressure

    change in the mean arterial blood pressure

    Measured: before administration (baseline), every 10 minutes during the procedure, every 15 minutes for one hour postoperatively

  2. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score for pain

    assessment of postoperative pain using the visual analogue scale score. the scale is a straight horizontal line (100 mm). The ends are defined as the extreme limits of pain orientated from the left (no pain) to the right (worst pain).The patient marks on the line the point that they feel represents their perception of their current state.

    The VAS score is determined by measuring in millimetres from the left hand end of the line to the point that the patient marks.higher VAS score means worse pain

    Measured: every 15 minutes for one hour postoperatively

  3. recovery time

    recovery time

    Measured: immediately postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine-propofol and Ketamine-Propofol in people with Sedation, run by National Cancer Institute, Egypt at 1 site in Egypt.

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 28 Sep 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 Egypt. 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?

Heart rate (time frame: before administration (baseline), every 10 minutes during the procedure, every 15 minutes for one hour postoperatively). 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 28 Sep 2023.
