Who may be able to join

  • Healthy volunteers aged 18 to 70 years

About this study

Official title: 'Study of the Cerebral Effects of Sevoflurane, Propofol and Remifentanil as Measured by the Spontaneous Electro-encephalogram'

This is an interventional, randomized controlled study in health volunteers that involves collecting data on raw EEG waves measuring various combinations of anesthetic drugs during standardized drug titration.

Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • SedLine EEG sensorDevice

    Test subjects in each group will receive the same device intervention (SedLine EEG) to monitor their EEG waves.

Study groups in NCT02043938
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthy VolunteersExperimentalAll healthy volunteers will receive four sessions of anesthesia with different common drug combinations while having SedLine EEG sensors placed on their forehead during these sessions to study the effects of these drugs on the brain. The sessions were: propofol (P), sevoflurane (S), propofol with remifentanil (PR), and sevoflurane with remifentanil (SR).
Receives: Device: SedLine EEG sensor

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient State Index (PSI) Comparison, Baseline and Emax

    Patient State Index (PSI-1) is a processed EEG parameter that quantifies the level of EEG inhibition. A new algorithm (PSI-2) has been created to improve performance in low power EEG. PSI is unitless. It ranges between 100 and 0 (100 representing 'awake state', 0 denoting 'no detectable electrical brain activity'). PSI-1 and PSI-2 were compared in their correlation with measured propofol and sevoflurane concentrations with or without remifentanil (0, 2 ,or 4 ng/mL) via several estimated PD model parameters. In the data table, BL (Baseline) denotes PSI-2 measurements when no drug is present; Emax denotes PSI in the presence of the maximum drug effect; C50 is the drug concentration which produces 50% of the maximal drug effect (ug/mL for Propofol C50, vol% for Sevoflurane C50).

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SedLine EEG sensor in people with Anesthesia, run by Masimo Corporation at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 10 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 2 May 2018. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 May 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Patient State Index (PSI) Comparison, Baseline and Emax (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT02043938, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 2 May 2018.
