About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Inhalational Anesthetic (Sevoflurane) and Intravenous Anesthetic (Propofol Infusion) for Maintenance of Sedation During Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography

After approval of ethical committee of Sindh Institute of Urology \& Transplantation (SIUT), 86 patients were enrolled for the elective endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Randomization was done by a computer-generated randomization table. Patients were divided in two groups based on agents used for the research study. Both the groups were induced by injection midazolam 0.06 mg/kg body weight and injection nalbuphine 0.1 mg/kg body weight. In group A, anesthesia was maintained by Sevoflurane inhalation via nasal prongs with oxygen to achieve minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) approximately 0.25%. Whereas, in Group B propofol infusion at 50 ug/Kg/min started for maintenance of anaesthesia. Ketamine 0.5mg/kg intravenously was used to rescue the sedation level in both groups

Read the detailed description

After approval of ethical committee of SIUT, 86 patients were enrolled for the elective endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Pre-operative assessment was done by history of patients, general physical examination, systematic examination, and laboratory investigations. Randomization was done by a computer-generated randomization table. Patients were divided in two groups based on agents used for the research study. Both the groups were induced by injection midazolam 0.06 mg/kg body weight and injection nalbuphine 0.1 mg/kg body weight. In group A, anesthesia was maintained by Sevoflurane inhalation via nasal prongs with oxygen to achieve minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) approximately 0.25%. Whereas, in Group B propofol infusion at 50 ug/Kilogram/min started for maintenance of anaesthesia.

When Ramsay Sedation Scale 5 is achieved then the endoscopist was allowed to insert endoscope. Injection Ketamine 0.5 mg/kg body weight was used for rescue sedation level. Upon arrival in operation theatre standard monitoring which includes pulse oximeter (SPO2), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes were applied, and baseline readings will be recorded. After that venous access was secured on a non-dominant hand by 20 Gauge IV cannula. Ringer's lactate or normal saline was then started at 8 ml/kg/hour and O2 was given by nasal prongs at 4 L/min. All baseline parameters were taken, after that readings were taken at 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min and so on till procedure ends.

Complications such as respiratory depression, coughing, gagging, nausea and vomiting were recorded during the procedure and treated accordingly. If SpO2 went down below 92% for more than 10 seconds or patient developed apnea, it was considered oxygen desaturation.

Oxygen desaturation was managed by O2 inhalation and supporting airway. A heart rate under 40 beats per minute was considered bradycardia and it will be managed by inj Atropine 10 ug/Kilogram intravenously (I/V). Mean arterial pressures level that is lower than 60 mmHg or 20% less than the baseline was regarded as hypotension and it was managed by fluid bolus or vasopressors.

After the procedure, patients were awakened and shifted to recovery room. Complications such as respiratory depression, coughing, gagging, nausea and vomiting were recorded and treated accordingly.

Being tested
Propofol 1 % Injectable Suspension, Sevoflurane

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Propofol 1 % Injectable Suspension and Sevoflurane in people with Sedation Complication, run by Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 8 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 18 Aug 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 Pakistan. 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?

Ramsay sedation score (time frame: 0-2 hours). The study lists 5 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 18 Aug 2023.
