About this study

Official title: Influence of Sugammadex on Facial Nerve Monitoring in Parotid Surgery

To investigate the effectiveness of rapid reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block by sugammadex during IONM of facial nerve during parotid surgery

Read the detailed description

Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) of facial nerve has been applied in identifying and preserving facial nerve during parotid surgery. In this setting, even a single dose of nondepolarizing muscle relaxant may lead to delayed and weakened electromyography (EMG) signal in facial nerve monitoring during parotid surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of rapid reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block by sugammadex during IONM of facial nerve during parotid surgery

Being tested
sugammadex (Bridion)

What participants receive

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Injury to Nerve During Surgery, run by Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 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 25 Feb 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 Taiwan. 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?

evoked EMG amplitude of facial nerve (time frame: up to first post-op day). 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 25 Feb 2016.
