About this study

Official title: Influence of Hypnosis on the Propofol Requirement to Induce General Anesthesia

Hypnosis may reduce patient anxiety. The main goal of this study is to determine in what extent, hypnosis decreases propofol requirement to induce induction of general anesthesia.

A particular aspect of this study is that induction is provided by a closed-loop system which delivers propofol according to bispectral index.

Conditions
Anesthesia
Being tested
Hypnosis, usual care
Keywords
Hypnosis, Anesthesia, Propofol, Closed-loop

What participants receive

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

  • HypnosisProcedure or surgery

    A short preanesthetic hypnosis before induction of anesthesia

  • usual careProcedure or surgery

    Standard care before induction of anesthesia

What is being measured

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

  1. Administered dose of propofol required to obtain the induction of anesthesia (bispectral index <60 for at least 30 seconds)

    Measured: one hour

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. calculated target plasma concentration corresponding to induction of anesthesia (bispectral index <60 for at least 30 seconds)

    Measured: one hour

  2. pain of injection

    Pain is assessed by two criteria:

    • withdrawal of the arm perfused (no = 0; withdrawal = 1; violent withdrawal = 2),
    • spontaneous expression (no = 0; frown = 1 grin = 2)

    Measured: one hour

  3. Hemodynamic consequences of induction of anesthesia

    Heart rate and blood pressure are measured just before induction of anesthesia and once it realized.

    Measured: one hour

  4. characteristics of the hypnotic procedure

    • For speed: focus obtained in a very fast (1), fast (2), medium (3), delayed (4), impossible to obtain (5).
    • For quality: very deep (1), deep (2), medium (3), superficial (4), not obtained (5)

    Measured: one hour

  5. Patient assessment of the induction of anesthesia

    4-point scale.

    Measured: one hour

  6. Time to loss of consciousness

    loss of eyelash reflex

    Measured: one hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Hypnosis in people with Anesthesia, run by Hopital Foch at 1 site in France.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2016. 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 France. 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?

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?

Administered dose of propofol required to obtain the induction of anesthesia (bispectral index <60 for at least 30 seconds) (time frame: one hour). 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 NCT01648725, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 31 Oct 2016.
