About this study

Our prospective observational study will include patients between the ages of 1-7 years, ASA 1-2, who will undergo elective surgery under general anesthesia, whose consent was obtained by their parents for the procedure to be performed. Optic nerve sheath diameter of the patients will be measured and recorded.

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted with patients who will undergo elective surgery and caudal block will be applied between 05.07.2023-05.09.2023 in the Anesthesiology and Reanimation Clinic of Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşçıoğlu City Hospital after Ethics Committee approval and written and verbal consent of the patients. Our prospective observational study will include patients between the ages of 1-7 years, ASA 1-2, who will undergo elective surgery under general anesthesia, whose consent was obtained by their parents for the procedure to be performed. Gender, age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), ASA (American Society of Anesthesiology) score and medical history of the patients will be recorded. Injection times of pediatric patients who underwent caudal block with 0.125% bupivacaine at a dose of 0.8 ml/kg using a 22 gauge caudal needle will be noted. Optic nerve sheath diameter of the patients will be measured and recorded. Intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, postoperative complications (nausea, vomiting, urinary retention) will also be noted.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter and Caudal Block, run by Prof. Dr. Cemil Tascıoglu Education and Research Hospital Organization 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 21 Aug 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 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?

optic nerve sheath diameter measurement (time frame: 1st minute after caudal block). 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 21 Aug 2024.
