About this study

Official title: Phase 4 THE EFFECTS OF DEXMEDETOMIDINE ON EARLY STAGE RENAL FUNCTIONS IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS UNDERGOING CARDIAC ANGIOGRAPHY USING NON- IONIC CONTRAST MEDIA: A DOUBLE- BLIND, RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine infusion on early stage renal function.

Read the detailed description

Background: Contrast-induced nephropathy is the third most common cause of acute renal failure in hospitalized patients in all age groups. In this study we aimed to investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on early stage renal function in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac angiography.

Methods: 60 pediatric patients between 6 and 72 months of age undergoing cardiac angiography were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups. The patients in both groups were administered 1mgkg-1 ketamine, 1mgkg-1 propofol as bolus and followed by 1 mgkg-1hour-1 ketamine and 50 µgkg-1min-1 propofol infusion. Additionally, a loading dose of 1 µgkg-1 dexmedetomidine given over 10 minutes followed by 0.5 µgkg-1hour-1 dexmedetomidine infusion to patients in group D. The patients were evaluated for NGAL, creatinine, renin, endothelin-1, TAS and TOS blood levels before the procedure and 6th and 24th hours after the procedure. pRIFLE criteria were used to define CIN and its incidence in the study.

What participants receive

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

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    Also called Precedex

    a loading dose of 1 µg kg-1 dexmedetomidine (Precedex Abbott Labs, North Chicago, IL) IV given over 10 minutes, followed by 0.5 µg kg-1 hour-1 IV dexmedetomidine infusion were administered. Dexmedetomidine was prepared as a 1 µg ml-1 solution using D5 0.3% NaCl solution.

  • KetamineDrug

    Also called Ketalar

    ketamine was bolused with 1 mg kg-1(IV) and followed by 1 mg kg-1 hour-1 ketamine IV infusion during the procedure.

  • PropofolDrug

    Also called Pofol

    propofol was bolused 1 mg kg-1 and 50 µg kg-1 min-1 propofol (IV) infusion during the procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Renal Functions,

    The patients were evaluated for complete blood count and blood levels of creatinine (Cr), Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL), renin, endothelin-1, total antioxidant status (TAS) and total oxidant status (TOS) before the procedure and 6 and 24 hours after the procedure.

    Measured: Baseline, changes from baseline at 6th and 24th hours after the cardiac angiography

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Blood Pressure

    After the patients were taken to the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2).

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  2. Heart rate

    After the patients were taken to the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2).

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  3. peripheral oxygen saturation

    After the patients were taken to the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2).

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine, Ketamine and Propofol in people with Renal Function Disorder and Hemodynamic Instability, run by TC Erciyes 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 23 Sep 2013. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Renal Functions, (time frame: Baseline, changes from baseline at 6th and 24th hours after the cardiac angiography). 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 Sep 2013.
