About this study

Official title: The Effects of Nitrogen Protoxide + Sevoflurane and Oxygen + Sevoflurane Anesthesia on Corneal Endothelial in Pediatric Patients

To evaluate the mean changes in Endothelial Cell and Corneal pachymetry in eyes that operated under N2O + sevoflurane and O2 + sevoflurane general anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

40 eyes of 40 patients who had extraocular surgery under general anesthesia will be included in this prospective study. Cell density, Cell variatio, Hexagonality rate and pachymetry specular microscopy results at before surgery and 1 week and 1 month after surgery will be analyzed. O2 (1 l/min) with 50% air and N2O (1 l/min) with 50% air will be applied to each group with flow rate 2 l/min totally, respectively. The duration of surgery will be recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of corneal endothal number

    Nitrogen protoxide and oxygen may be change this number

    Measured: after surgery at first day, 1th week and 1th month

  2. Change of Cell density rate

    Nitrogen protoxide and oxygen may be change this rate

    Measured: after surgery at first day, 1th week and 1th month

  3. Change of Cell variation rate

    Nitrogen protoxide and oxygen may be change this rate

    Measured: at before surgery and 1 week and 1 month after surgery

  4. Change of Hexagonality rate

    Nitrogen protoxide and oxygen may be change this rate

    Measured: after surgery at first day, 1th week and 1th month

  5. Change of pachymetry specular microscopy results

    Nitrogen protoxide and oxygen may be change these results

    Measured: after surgery at first day, 1th week and 1th month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nitrogen protoxide and Oxygen in people with Cornea and Anesthesia; Reaction, run by Inonu 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 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 5 Apr 2017. 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?

Change of corneal endothal number (time frame: after surgery at first day, 1th week and 1th month). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Apr 2017.
