Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 2 to 12 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Study population: This prospective and observational study involved consecutive patients aged between 2 and 12 years undergoing a major surgery using general anesthesia.Children undergoing urological and general surgery also required of locoregional blockade. Anesthetic induction was achieved with high concentration sevoflurane 6-8% (Sevorane®, Abbvie) and oxygen 50%. Anesthetic maintenance was done with sevoflurane 2-3%, 50% O2/air mixture, fentanyl 1 µg.kg.-1 iv, and rocuronium 0.3 µg.kg.-1 iv if required. Electrocardiogram (ECG), non-invasive arterial pressure, pulse oximetry, end-tidal carbon dioxide and cerebral NIRS oximetry was monitoring by using an INVOSTM5100 (Somanetics Corporation, Troy, MI, USA)

Who may be able to join

  • Patients aged between 2 and 12 years undergoing major surgery using general anesthesia.

Who cannot join

  • Children aged below 2 or over 12.
  • Neuropsychiatric disorder, or undergoing an emergency surgery.

About this study

The main objective of the present study was to evaluate whether cerebral oxygen saturation is associated with an increase of NPOBC in pediatric patients undergoing major surgery.

Read the detailed description

This prospective and observational study involved consecutive patients aged between 2 and 12 years undergoing a major surgery using general anesthesia. Cerebral oxygen saturation, non-invasive arterial pressure, pulse oximetry, and heart rate were recorded at the following stages of the surgical intervention: baseline, induction, intubation, surgical incision, end of surgery, and extubation. Preoperative anxiety was evaluated by using the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale, and NPOBC was determined by using the Post-Hospital Behaviour Questionnaire on 7th and 28th postoperative days. A logistic regression was created to identify factors associated with the development of NPOBC

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Negative Postoperative Behavioral Changes

    NPOBC was measured by using thePost-Hospital Behaviour Questionnaire.

    Measured: on 7th and 28th postoperative days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of children with cerebral desaturation and NPOBC

    Cerebral oxygen saturation was monitoring by using the monitor INVOS 5100

    Measured: on 7th and 28th postoperative days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cognitive Dysfunction, run by Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid.

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 2 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 17 May 2016. 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. 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?

Incidence of Negative Postoperative Behavioral Changes (time frame: on 7th and 28th postoperative days). 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 17 May 2016.
