About this study

Official title: A Controlled Study on the Impact of Ciprofol Injection on Postoperative Cognitive Function and Its Mechanism

This study aims to explore the effect of ciprofol on the postoperative cognitive function of inpatients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy examination, to compare the anesthetic effects and differences in adverse reactions of propofol and ciprofol in gastrointestinal endoscopy , to compare the incidence of postoperative cognitive decline in patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy examination between propofol and coprofol, and to optimize the anesthesia medication regimen for patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy examination.

Being tested
Ciprofol group, Propofol group

What participants receive

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

  • Ciprofol groupDrug

    patients in the Ciprofol group will use ciprofol to complete the painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy treatment.

  • Propofol groupDrug

    patients in the propofol group will use propofol to complete the painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference in the incidence of cognitive function decline between ciprofol and propofol in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy treatment

    Measured: From the time the patient was enrolled in the study to 24 hours after the treatment

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Intraoperative and postoperative adverse events

    Measured: From the time the patient enters the operating room to 24 hours after the treatment

  2. Blood Pressure (mmHg)

    Non-invasive BP measured by cuff after entry and intermittently during surgery. Hypotension: SBP decrease >30% from baseline; Hypertension: SBP increase >30% from baseline.

    Measured: From entering the operating room to leaving it (before anesthesia, after induction, and 5 minutes、10 minutes 、20 minutes 、30 minutes 、40 minutes、50 minutes、60 minutes after the operation began)

  3. Heart Rate (beats/min)

    Read from monitor. Bradycardia: <50 bpm or decrease ≥25% from baseline; Tachycardia: >100 bpm or increase ≥25% from baseline.

    Measured: From entering the operating room to leaving it (before anesthesia, after induction, and 5 minutes、10 minutes 、20 minutes 、30 minutes 、40 minutes、50 minutes、60 minutes after the operation began)

  4. Respiratory Rate (breaths/min)

    Read from monitor or counted over 1 min. Respiratory depression: <8 breaths/min lasting >30 sec.

    Measured: From entering the operating room to leaving it (before anesthesia, after induction, and 5 minutes、10 minutes 、20 minutes 、30 minutes 、40 minutes、50 minutes、60 minutes after the operation began)

  5. Oxygen Saturation (Pulse Oximetry)

    Read from monitor. Hypoxemia: SpO2 <90% lasting >15 sec.

    Measured: From entering the operating room to leaving it (before anesthesia, after induction, and 5 minutes、10 minutes 、20 minutes 、30 minutes 、40 minutes、50 minutes、60 minutes after the operation began)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ciprofol group and Propofol group in people with Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction, run by The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 9 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 2026. 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 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?

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?

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?

The difference in the incidence of cognitive function decline between ciprofol and propofol in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy treatment (time frame: From the time the patient was enrolled in the study to 24 hours after the treatment). 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 29 Jun 2026.
