About this study

Official title: An Accuracy of Bispectral Index Monitoring in an Alternative Nasal Position Compared With Standard Frontal Position in Pediatric Patients Under General Anesthesia With Sevoflurane

To compare the accuracy of frontal versus nasal BIS monitoring in pediatric patients under general anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

Standard position of frontal bispectral index (BIS) may not be available in some operations that frontal area is occupied by surgical field. This prospective cohort study aims to compare the accuracy of the BIS between an alternative position across the nasal area with the standard frontal BIS position in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia.

What participants receive

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

  • Bispectral index (BIS)Device

    • All patient will receive standard monitoring (EKG, Blood pressure, pulse oximetry), and BIS transducer placement at standard frontal area before anesthesia.
    • Sedative medication can be given as appropriate.
    • Anesthesia induction by inhalation induction with sevoflurane (if intravenous line not presented) or intravenous induction with thiopental 5-6 mg/kg IV
    • Other medication including fentanyl 1 mcg/kg IV and cisatracurium 0.1-0.2 mg/kg IV will be given and the patient will be intubated.
    • The second BIS will be installed on the bridge of the nose and temporal on the same side as frontal BIS.
    • The patient will be maintained with sevoflurane and other anesthetic drugs as appropriate, adjusted per frontal BIS (40-60).
    • The frontal BIS and the nasal BIS will be measured until the endotracheal tube is being removed. If the patient has moved until it was impossible to measure the BIS or has any necessity to cancel the BIS measurement. The BIS measurement can be stopped.

What is being measured

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

  1. bispectral index (BIS) value

    BIS is a processed electroencephalogram (range from 0-100), the optimal value of BIS during general anesthesia is 40-60. We aim to define the differences between standard frontal BIS and nasal BIS using Bland-Altman analysis.

    Measured: 5 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. signal quality index (SQI)

    SQI (range from 0-100) determines the quality of signal of the primary outcome (BIS). We aim to define the differences of SQI of BIS between standard frontal and nasal positions.

    Measured: 5 hours

  2. electromyography (EMG)

    EMG (range from 0-100) reports the interference of muscle activity on quality of the primary outcome (BIS). We aim to define the differences of EMG between standard frontal and nasal positions.

    Measured: 5 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bispectral index (BIS) in people with BIS, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 6 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 17 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 Thailand. 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?

bispectral index (BIS) value (time frame: 5 hours). 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 NCT06255236, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Dec 2024.
