About this study

Official title: The Effect of Intraoperative Magnesium Sulfate Infusion on the Occurrence of Emergence Agitation After Pediatric Ophthalmic Surgery

This study designed to evaluate the correlation between the effect of intraoperative magnesium sulfate infusion and the incidence of emergence agitation after pediatric ophthalmic surgery

Read the detailed description

Emergence agitation (EA) is a frequent postoperative complication in pediatric patients after general anesthesia. There are several suggested causes of EA and pain has been considered one of them. Magnesium is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist and increasingly used as an analgesic-adjuvant. We evaluate the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) Scale to investigate whether the intraoperative infusion of magnesium sulfate reduces the incidence of EA in pediatric patients who undergo ophthalmic outpatient surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Magnesium SulfateDrug

    Also called 10% magnesium sulfate

    Comparing the effect of continuous infusion magnesium sulfate and normal saline in the occurrence of emergence agitation

  • Normal salineDrug

    Also called 0.9% isotonic normal saline

    Comparing the effect of continuous infusion magnesium sulfate and normal saline in the occurrence of emergence agitation

Study groups in NCT03208452
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Normal saline(NS) groupPlacebo comparatorloading 50mL of normal saline during 10minutes before starting of surgery, after starting of surgery, continuous infusion of normal saline as placebo by 0.15mg/kg/h until the end of surgery
Receives: Drug: Normal saline
Magnesium groupActive comparatorloading dose of 50mg/kg magnesium sulfate during 10minutes before starting of surgery, during the surgery, continuous infusion of magnesium sulfate by 15mg/kg/h
Receives: Drug: Magnesium Sulfate

What is being measured

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

  1. the incidence of emergence agitation (EA)

    Using PAED (pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium) score, consider the score 10 or more as occuring of EA. Comparing the score between the placebo group and the intervention group for the difference of the incidence of EA.

    Measured: 15 minute interval at the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the severity of EA

    Comparing the maximal PAED score between the placebo group and the intervention group for evaluating difference of severity of EA.

    Measured: 15 minute interval at the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Magnesium Sulfate and Normal saline in people with Agitation,Psychomotor, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 6 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 11 Sep 2023. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

the incidence of emergence agitation (EA) (time frame: 15 minute interval at the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU)). 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 11 Sep 2023.
