Trial summary

This study aims to evaluate the effects of pre-intubation oropharyngeal topical lidocaine on optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) post-endotracheal intubation. The study will measure the ONSD using ultrasonography before intubation, and at 1, 5, and 10 minutes post-intubation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Oropharyngeal-topical and Intravenous Lidocaine on the Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Changes After Endotracheal Intubation: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Study

This study aims to evaluate the effects of pre-intubation oropharyngeal topical lidocaine on optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) post-endotracheal intubation. The study will measure the ONSD using ultrasonography before intubation, and at 1, 5, and 10 minutes post-intubation. The results will be compared between patients receiving %10 lidocaine topically and %2 intravenous lidocaine.

Read the detailed description

Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is a critical condition that requires early and accurate assessment. Traditional invasive ICP monitoring techniques, such as lumbar puncture and intracranial pressure monitoring devices, carry significant risks. Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurement via ultrasonography is a non-invasive method that reflects increased ICP.

Patients will be divided into two groups: Group A will receive %10 topical oropharyngeal lidocaine, and Group B will receive %2 intravenous lidocaine. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of lidocaine on ONSD at 1, 5, and 10 minutes post-intubation and to compare the effects on the two groups.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Optic nerve sheath diameter measurement 0, optic nerve sheath diameter measurement 1 and optic nerve sheath diameter measurement 2 in people with Endotracheal Intubation During Surgery and Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter, run by Ankara City Hospital Bilkent at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2025. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

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 İsmail Aytaç, Ass. prof (+90 505 634 03 69, aytacismail1972@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Optic nerve sheath diameter 0 (time frame: Before intubation). The study lists 4 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 13 Mar 2025.
