About this study

Official title: Laryngeal Mask Insertion Conditions And Hemodynamic Effects After Propofol And Ketamine-Propofol Co-induction

This interventional double-blind, randomized trial has included120 children of American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) physical status I or II aged between 1and 8 years of either sex, scheduled for outpatient minor surgery under general anesthesia.This study examined whether co-induction with ketamine-propofol enhance laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion conditions and preserve hemodynamic state in patients.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to compare two anesthesia protocols: propofol induction with or without a prior injection of ketamine, in term of LMA insertion conditions(favorable= satisfactory or unfavorable= unsatisfactory ) and hemodynamic effects (decrease of 20 % from baseline of blood pressure and heart rate).

The conditions of LMA insertion have been assessed in each study group by an experimented anesthesiologist, who was unaware of the treatment group assignment. Conditions were considered satisfactory, if the 4 following criteria were acceptable: the jaw was relaxed, there was no coughing, swallowing and no limb movement, and then the LMA was inserted. When the investigators save at least one unacceptable of these criteria, conditions were considered to be unsatisfactory and thereafter anesthesia was deepened with supplemental dose of propofol 1mg.kg-¹ and 1 minute later a reinsertion was attempted. The total number of attempts at LMA insertion was recorded. Children trachea was intubated after 3 failed attempts of LMA insertion, and then patient was excluded.

What participants receive

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

  • KetamineDrug

    Also called sevoflurane, nitrous oxide (N2O)

    Ketamine 0,5mg.kg-¹was injected intravenously one minute prior propofol 3mg.kg-¹ and one minute before LMA insertion in Ketamine-propofol group

  • placeboDrug

    Also called sevoflurane, N2O

    The control group which received intravenously the same volume with normal saline one minute prior propofol 3mg.kg-¹ and 1 min before LMA insertion in propofol group

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ketamine-propofol groupActive comparatorKetamine (50mg/ml) at 0.5 mg.kg-1 was injected intravenously 1min prior 3 mgkg-1 of propofol and 1 min before LMA insertion in Ketamine-propofol group. sevoflurane 6-7% was used on vaporizer setting with 50% nitrous oxide in oxgen prior intravenous anesthesia. The loss of eyelash reflex was considered as the desired end point for induction.

What is being measured

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

  1. LMA insertion conditions

    satisfactory conditions of LMA insertion are defined as when 4 criteria were acceptable: jaw relaxation, no coughing or swallowing and no limb movement.

    unsatisfactory conditions of LMA insertion is defined as when there's at least one unacceptable of these criteria

    Measured: 2 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. hemodynamic effects

    mean blood pressure (MAP) in mmHg . Heart Rate (HR) in beats per minute (time frame: from baseline to LMA insertion)

    Measured: from Baseline period until 10 minutes after LMA insertion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ketamine in people with Laryngeal Masks, run by Leila mansali stambouli at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 22 Aug 2017. 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 Tunisia. 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.

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?

LMA insertion conditions (time frame: 2 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03257800, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 22 Aug 2017.
