Trial summary

The investigators conduct a random assignment into either the remimazolam group or the propofol group. Depending on the group assignment, either remimazolam (0.2 mg/kg) or propofol (1.0 mg/kg) is administered. If necessary, additional doses of remimazolam (0.1 mg/kg) or propofol (0.5 mg/kg) are given.

About this study

Official title: Remimazolam Versus Propofol for General Anesthesia Induction in Patients on Renin-angiotensin System Blockers Undergoing Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy: A Randomized Controlled Study

The investigators conduct a random assignment into either the remimazolam group or the propofol group. Depending on the group assignment, either remimazolam (0.2 mg/kg) or propofol (1.0 mg/kg) is administered. If necessary, additional doses of remimazolam (0.1 mg/kg) or propofol (0.5 mg/kg) are given. The standard anesthesia procedure of our institution is followed, and blood pressure data recorded during the surgery is analyzed (mean arterial pressure <65mmHg is defined as hypotension).

Conditions

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • remimazolamDrug

    Remimazolam is administered for anesthesia induction.

  • PropofolDrug

    Propofol is administered for anesthesia induction.

Study groups in NCT06093971
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group remimazolamExperimentalDuring anesthesia induction, the remimazolam group (group R) receives remimazolam (0.2 mg/kg). If necessary, an additional dose of remimazolam (0.1 mg/kg) is administered.
Receives: Drug: remimazolam
Group propofolActive comparatorDuring anesthesia induction, the propofol group (group P) receives propofol (1.0 mg/kg). If necessary, an additional dose of propofol (0.5 mg/kg) is administered.
Receives: Drug: Propofol

What is being measured

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

  1. Hypotension occurrence (unit: number of patients)

    "MAP<65mmHg for 1 min

    Measured: during the total anesthesia duration

  2. Amount of hypotension (unit: mmHg)

    time-weighted average MAP <65mmHg => depth of hypotension (mmHg) below a MAP of 65 mmHg * time (min) below a MAP of 65 mmHg)/ total duration of surgery (min)

    Measured: during the total anesthesia duration

  3. Vasopressor dose (unit: mcg for norepinephrine)

    total dose of norepinephrine administered

    Measured: during the total anesthesia duration

  4. Vasopressor dose (unit for vasopressin)

    total dose of vasopressin administered

    Measured: during the total anesthesia duration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing remimazolam and Propofol in people with Prostate Tumor, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 12 Dec 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 South Korea. 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?

Hypotension occurrence (unit: number of patients) (time frame: during the total anesthesia duration). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06093971, which also lists 2 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 12 Dec 2024.
