Trial summary

Purpose: This study aims to compare the emergence time among three anesthesia regimens: remimazolam, remimazolam with flumazenil, and propofol in elderly patients undergoing hip replacement surgery. Background: Previous studies have shown that flumazenil accelerates emergence time when used with remimazolam. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of Remimazolam, Remimazolam Plus Flumazenil vs Propofol Anesthesia on Emergence Time in Elderly Patients Undergoing Hip Replacement: A Randomized, Double Blinded Controlled Study

Purpose: This study aims to compare the emergence time among three anesthesia regimens: remimazolam, remimazolam with flumazenil, and propofol in elderly patients undergoing hip replacement surgery.

Background: Previous studies have shown that flumazenil accelerates emergence time when used with remimazolam. Remimazolam and propofol have comparable emergence times, although remimazolam can be up to 5 minutes longer than propofol.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • RemimazolamDrug

    In Remimazolam group, the induction dose of remimazolam is 0.3 mg/kg based on previous studies, the maintenance of anesthesia is 0.3-0.7 mg/kg/hr.

  • FlumazenilDrug

    Immediately after the cessation of remimazolam infusion in PACU(PACU, Postanesthesia care unit), the nurses who are blind to the anesthesia management were asked to administer the flumazenil.

  • PropofolDrug

    For propofol group, the induction of propofol is 1.5-2.0 mg/kg, followed by the maintenance of propofol infusion with 6-8 mg/kg/hr throughout the surgical procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Emergence

    Defined as the time from discontinuation of the anesthetic agent to the time the patient opens their eyes on verbal command.

    Measured: Within one day of surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Hemodynamic Parameters

    Blood pressure measured at various time points including diastolic and systolic blood pressure.

    Measured: During operation

  2. Hemodynamic Parameters

    Heart rate measured at various time points.

    Measured: During operation

  3. Post-Operative Recovery

    Assessed using the Modified Aldrete Score.The modified Aldrete score is measured by evaluating five criteria, including the individual's activity level, respiration, circulation, consciousness, and oxygen saturation. A score of "0", "1", or "2" is given for each category, two representing the ideal condition.Given the five parameters, individuals can have a total score from zero to ten. A score lower than nine typically means the individual's status is suboptimal.

    Measured: Within one day of surgery

  4. Adverse Events

    Incidence and severity of adverse events related to anesthesia(injection pain, post-induction hypotension, bradycardia and body movement, postoperative nausea and vomiting, intraoperative awareness and delirium, sedation rescue and re-sedation).

    Measured: Within one day of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Remimazolam, Flumazenil and Propofol in people with Hip Fracture, run by Central South University at 2 sites in China.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 24 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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?

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?

Time to Emergence (time frame: Within one day of surgery). 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 24 Jul 2024.
