About this study
Official title: Impact of Extubation Location After Surgery on Perioperative Times. A Prospective Multicenter Observational Study. Extub_Loca Study
The additional time required to awaken a patient is one of the main reasons for not extubating him or her in the operating room (OR). Conversely, transferring an intubated patient to recovery room (RR), prolonging the duration of anesthesia and intubation, in a limited environment in human resources, may lead to increased complications' rates. Little is known about those time lengths and complications rates.

The additional time required to awaken a patient is one of the main reasons for not extubating him or her in the operating room (OR). Conversely, transferring an intubated patient to recovery room (RR), prolonging the duration of anesthesia and intubation, in a limited environment in human resources, may lead to increased complications' rates. Little is known about those time lengths and complications rates. The primary objective was to evaluate the additional OR occupancy time associated with awakening and extubation. Secondary objectives were to assess the rate of post-extubation complications and the need for ventilatory support. This was a prospective multicenter observational study involving intubated patients who underwent surgeries in the operating theatres of the Montpellier and Clermont-Ferrand university hospitals. Anesthesia teams were asked to complete a form including data related to the patient, surgical procedure, anesthesia procedure (induction and recovery) and the occurrence of any complications during the procedure. A multivariate analysis was conducted on the full cohort, using a propensity score (IPTW, inverse probability of treatment weighting) to account for imbalances between groups.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The additional time required to awaken a patient is one of the main reasons for not extubating him or her in the operating room (OR). Conversely, transferring an intubated patient to recovery room (RR), prolonging the duration of anesthesia and intubation, in a limited environment in human resources, may lead to increased complications' rates. Little is known about those time lengths and complications rates.

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?
Additional operative room occupancy time associated with awakening and extubation (time frame: From end of procedure until extubation, assessed up to 2 hours). 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 8 Feb 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
