About this study

Official title: Residual Neuromuscular Blockade in Paediatric Patients Before Extubation and in Postanesthetic Care Unit:Prospective Observational Cohort Study

Residual neuromuscular blockade (RNB) is frequent and it is associated with postoperative morbidity and mortality. The incidence of the RNB in pediatric anesthesia is currently not known. The aim of this prospective observational cohort study is to evaluate the early RNB just before extubation and late RNB at the time of arrival to postanesthetic care unit (PACU).

Read the detailed description

Residual neuromuscular blockade (RNB) is frequent and it is associated with negative impact on postoperative morbidity and mortality. The incidence of the RNB in adult is well described, however in pediatric subpopulation it is currently not known. The aim of this prospective observational cohort study is to evaluate the early RNB just before extubation and late RNB at the time of arrival to postanesthetic care unit (PACU). In the trial will be enrolled all pediatric patients (28 weeks of age and older - 19 years old) whom will be administered neuromuscular blocking agent during anesthesia. The demographic data will be collected including: age, weight, type of surgery, ASA status. The anesthesia management will be described including: airway management, type and cumulative dose of neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA) and time and dose of the last administered bolus of NMBA. The residual neuromuscular blockade will be measured according to the standards: TOF Watch accelerometry at the moment prior to extubation (two measurements) in TOF mode and at the arrival to postanesthetic care unit (PACU) (two measurements) in TOF mode.

What is being measured

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

  1. Early residual neuromuscular blockade

    Just prior extubation the residual neuromuscular blockade will be measured by accelerometry

    Measured: before extubation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Late neuromuscular blockade

    At the arrival to PACU the residual neuromuscular blockade will be measured by accelerometry

    Measured: at arrival to PACU

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Residual Neuromuscular Blockade, run by Brno University Hospital at 1 site in Czechia.

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 4 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 19 Nov 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 Czechia. 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?

Early residual neuromuscular blockade (time frame: before extubation). 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 19 Nov 2018.
