About this study

Official title: Study to Estimate Central Propofol Effect by Measuring Exhaled Propofol Concentrations in Patients

Propofol can be measured continuously in breath gas during anesthesia. This study compares propofol concentration in plasma and breath gas and processed electroencephalographic monitoring (bispectral index) under clinical conditions with patients and total intravenous anesthesia. Target controlled infusion technique is used to deliver adequate propofol concentration in plasma.

Being tested
Drug: Propofol Anesthesia Patients will undergo propofol anesthesia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Drug: Propofol Anesthesia Patients will undergo propofol anesthesia. in people with Urological Disease, run by University of Luebeck at 1 site in Germany.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 2017. 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 Germany. 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?

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?

Exhaled propofol (parts per billion) (time frame: Continuous measurement over 40 min during the induction of anesthesia and 30 min during recovery of anesthesia). 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 NCT01835340, 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 12 Dec 2017.
