About this study

Official title: Comparative Study Between the Performance of Opioid Free Anesthesia Versus Conventional Opioid Based Anesthesia Regarding Achievement of Enhanced Recovery in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgeries

This Study aims to evaluate the efficacy of opioid free general anesthesia in achieving enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in laparoscopic bariatric surgery in terms of post-operative recovery time, cumulative pethidine consumption and number of episodes of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV).

Read the detailed description

While opioids have been commonly used in the operating room due to their effectiveness in pain management and anesthesia, there are numerous common side effects that have an impact on patient recovery. Obese patients or those with pre-existing respiratory difficulties such as sleep apnea or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are more likely to experience respiratory failure after getting opiate therapy. Other effects of opioid use include gastro-intestinal obstacles such nausea, vomiting, and constipation.

The concept of opioid-free anesthesia evolved due to the potential adverse side effects associated with intraoperative opioid usage.

This study examines nociceptive monitoring's potential role in opioid-free anesthesia, as well as research on the topic. This study aims to compare the effects of an opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) regimen versus an opioid-based anesthesia (OBA) regimen on postoperative pain and enhanced recovery in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Fentanyl infusionDrug

    opioid based anesthesia analgesia will be offered by fentanyl in induction and maintenance according to Ideal Body Weight (IBW).

  • Dexamedomedine and ketamine infusionDrug

    Analgesia will be offered by syringe containing ketamine and Dexmedetomidine in induction and maintenance according to IBW.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time between the end of analgesic used and an Aldrete score > 9 (when applicable).

    Decrease opioid usage ,decrease recovery time

    Measured: 15 minutes

  2. Time between the end of operation to PACU

    Decrease opioid usage ,decrease recovery time

    Measured: 15 minutes

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cumulative pethidine consumption

    decrease the need to postoperative pethidine

    Measured: 24 hours postoperative

  2. Number of episodes of nausea and vomiting [Time Frame: During the 24 hours following extubation].

    number of episodes of nausea and vomiting postoperative

    Measured: 24 hours postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fentanyl infusion and Dexamedomedine and ketamine infusion in people with Opioid Free Anesthesia and Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgeries, run by Ain Shams University.

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eman Mohamed Zain (01017254024, emanzain@med.asu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time between the end of analgesic used and an Aldrete score > 9 (when applicable). (time frame: 15 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2024.
