About this study

Official title: Intranasal Dexmedetomidine Versus Intravenous Dexmedetomidine for Improving Quality of the Operative Field in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Randomized Triple-Blind Trial

compare intranasal dexmedetomidine versus intravenous dexmedetomidine for improving quality of the operative field in Functional endoscopic sinus surgery

Read the detailed description

Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is a well-established therapeutic option for intractable CRS and other indications. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is a minimally invasive procedure and is commonly performed under controlled hypotensive anesthesia. In case of major bleeding, risk of complications such as meningitis, blindness, intracranial injury, cerebrospinal fluid leakage and the duration of surgery increase. Intraoperative bleeding is the most common factor that diminishes visibility, resulting in an increased incidence of complications.

Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective α2 adreno-receptor agonist with higher affinity to a2 adreno-receptor than clonidine, and this makes dexmedetomidine primarily sedative and anxiolytic.The elimination half-life of dexmedetomidine (t1/2b) is 2 h and the redistribution half-life (t1/2a) is 6 min, and this short half-life makes it an ideal drug for intravenous titration.

Intranasal Dexmedetomidine is convenient, effective, and noninvasive and also has useful analgesic and sedative effects in surgical procedures. Cheung's research has shown that intranasal Dexmedetomidine 1 and 1.5 micro/kg in surgical procedures produced significant sedation and less postoperative pain. Several previous research were determined the effect of intranasal dexmedetomidine in several clinical evaluations

Being tested
intranasal dexmedetomidine, intravenous dexmedetomidine

What participants receive

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

  • intranasal dexmedetomidineDrug

    Patients will receive 1.5 micro g/kg intranasal dexmedetomidine diluted with saline + infusion saline

  • intravenous dexmedetomidineDrug

    patients will receive 0.1- 0.4 micro g/kg intravenous infusion dexmedetomidine + intranasal saline.

Receives: Drug: intravenous dexmedetomidine

What is being measured

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

  1. Improving quality of the operative field

    Patients' satisfaction will be measured immediately postoperative and after 24 hours using a five-point Likert scale consisting of "very dissatisfied," "dissatisfied," "unsure," "satisfied," and "very satisfied.

    Measured: 24 hours postoperative

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Heart rate will be evaluated

    Heart rate will be recorded at baseline and every 5 min till the end of procedure

    Measured: every 5 min till the end of procedure

  2. Mean arterial blood pressure will be evaluated.

    Mean arterial blood pressure will be recorded at baseline and every 5 min till the end of procedure

    Measured: every 5 min till the end of procedure

  3. Pain score will be evaluated.

    Pain score will be evaluated measured with Numerical rating scale The numerical scale is most commonly 0 to 10, with 0 being "no pain" and 10 being "the worst pain imaginable

    Measured: 24 hour postoperatively

  4. Adverse reactions of hemostatic stuffing after FESS will be evaluated.

    1=no swelling, can tolerate; 2= swelling, can barely tolerate; 3= swelling, cannot tolerate

    Measured: 24 hour postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing intranasal dexmedetomidine and intravenous dexmedetomidine in people with Dexmedetomidine and Functional Endoscopic Sinus, run by Kafrelsheikh University 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 2 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Oct 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mohammad F Algyar, MD (00201111645345 ext. 047, mohammad.algaiar@med.kfs.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Improving quality of the operative field (time frame: 24 hours postoperative). 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 13 Oct 2023.
