Trial summary

Based on previous results, the investigators considered that sedation quality, complications, and procedure outcomes may not be different, however, propofol alone titration may have a fast recovery time than BPS and cost-effectiveness than balanced propofol sedation (BPS).

About this study

Official title: Phase 4 Study of Balanced Propofol Sedation Versus Propofol Alone Sedation

Based on previous results, the investigators considered that sedation quality, complications, and procedure outcomes may not be different, however, propofol alone titration may have a fast recovery time than BPS and cost-effectiveness than balanced propofol sedation (BPS). In present study, the investigators therefore evaluate the time and sedation quality of patient recovery, cost-effectiveness, complication, and procedure outcomes between propofol alone and BPS in therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

Read the detailed description

Previous studies have shown that propofol is superior to traditional sedation regimens with benzodiazepines plus opioids in ERCP procedures. Propofol is a potent hypnotic drug with a short duration of action and consequently a more rapid recovery time for the patients compared with the available Benzodiazepines. Several prospective studies have shown that balanced propofol sedation (BPS) can be used safely and effectively for diagnostic endoscopy under the direction of a gastroenterologist. BPS which was originally described by Cohen et al, combines small incremental doses of propofol with single induction doses of benzodiazepines and opioids under the direction of a physician that is not an anesthesiologist. Because BPS usually targets moderate sedation, adequate amnesia and analgesia can be achieved with concomitant administration of benzodiazepines and opioids. It may cause synergism between propofol and midazolam and reduce dose of propofol. However, there was no proven benefit between propofol alone titrated to moderate level of sedation and BPS; propofol titration combination with benzodiazepines and fentanyl.

What participants receive

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

  • PropofolDrug

    Also called A GROUP

    propofol (0.5 mg/kg body weight; 10 mg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV)

  • BPSDrug

    Also called B GROUP

    midazolam (0.05 mg/kg body weight; 1 mg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV) fentanyl (50 µg; 25 µg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV) propofol (0.5 mg/kg body weight)

Study groups in NCT01321047
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Propofol groupActive comparatorthe conventional propofol group (P group), sedation was induced by an intravenous bolus injection of propofol (0.5 mg/kg body weight; 10 mg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV).
Receives: Drug: Propofol
BPS groupActive comparatorthe balanced propofol sedation group (BPS group), both midazolam (0.05 mg/kg body weight; 1 mg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV) and fentanyl (50 µg; 25 µg if age > 70 or ASA class III-IV) were given intravenously at the initiation of sedation. Thereafter, an initial bolus of propofol (0.5 mg/kg body weight) was given intravenously. Sedation was maintained with repeated doses of 10 to 20 mg propofol.
Receives: Drug: BPS

What is being measured

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

  1. Recovery time and cost-effectiveness

    Following therapeutic ERCP,full recovery time scoring by Aldrete scoring system and cost measured.

    Measured: SIX MONTH

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sedation efficacy, procedure-related outcomes, and complications.

    Sedation efficacy parameters was defined as follows; Onset of effective sedation, Patient cooperation (endoscopist, observer-nurse), recovery time, and Patient tolerance (rated by the patients 4hr after procedure).

    Quality of procedure was assessed by procedure outcomes and procedure related complications.

    Measured: SIX MONTH

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Propofol and BPS in people with Conscious Sedation Failure During Procedure, run by Soon Chun Hyang 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2011. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Recovery time and cost-effectiveness (time frame: SIX MONTH). 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 23 Mar 2011.
