About this study

Official title: Hemodynamic Stability of Fentanyl Based Versus Lidocaine Based Induction of Anesthesia in Hypertensive Adults

Hypertension is an important health challenge that affects millions of people across the world today and is a major risk factor for multiple system comorbidities. Intraoperative hypotension may lead to negative outcomes. 'Post-induction hypotension' (PIH; i.e. arterial hypotension defined as hypotension during the first 20 min after anesthesia induction, or from anesthesia induction until the beginning of surgery) and 'early intraoperative hypotension' (eIOH; i.e. arterial hypotension occurring during the first 30 min of surgery). Lidocaine is a local anesthetic drug with multiple systemic uses. Systemic lidocaine used as at the perioperative period has analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties which make it capable of reducing intra- and postoperative drug consumptions and patients' hospital stay. Therefore, we hypothesize that the use of lidocaine as an adjuvant to propofol might reduce the risk of post induction hypotension and hence having more stable hemodynamic profile during induction of anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

Since post induction hypotension is mainly caused by anesthetic drugs, developing a technique for the induction of anesthesia that provides adequate hypnosis with stable hemodynamics during surgery is critical, especially for hypertensive patients. (4) Propofol is the most commonly used drug for anesthesia induction; however, its use is usually associated with hypotension through vasodilation and direct myocardial depression. (5) Opioid drugs are usually added to propofol to potentiate its hypnotic effect; however, they also potentiate propofol's negative hemodynamic effect at the same degree, even with low doses of propofol (5).

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic drug with multiple systemic uses. Systemic lidocaine used as at the perioperative period has analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties which make it capable of reducing intra- and postoperative drug consumptions and patients' hospital stay. (6) Lidocaine/ketamine combination showed a favorable hemodynamic profile following rapid-sequence induction of anesthesia in septic shock patients [14]. Therefore, we hypothesize that the use of lidocaine as an adjuvant to propofol might reduce the risk of post induction hypotension and hence having more stable hemodynamic profile during induction of anesthesia.

  1. Number of hypotensive episodes

    MAP less than 65 mmHg.

    Measured: 20 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lidocaine IV and Fentanyl in people with Hypertension and Fentanyl, run by Theodor Bilharz Research Institute at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 23 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 Egypt. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

MAP (time frame: 1 minute after GA induction). 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 NCT06557473, which also lists 3 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 23 Aug 2024.
