Trial summary

Background :An important risk factor for aspiration is gastric volume, determined in large part by gastric emptying. Unfortunately, measuring gastric volume over time is not easy, and scintigraphy has remained the gold standard technique for many years. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Gastric Ultrasound in Preoperative Assessment of Gastric Volume in Longstanding Diabetic Patients. (Prospective Observational Study).

Background :An important risk factor for aspiration is gastric volume, determined in large part by gastric emptying. Unfortunately, measuring gastric volume over time is not easy, and scintigraphy has remained the gold standard technique for many years. Ultrasound has progressively emerged as a useful substitute due to its reduced cost and ease of performance Objectives:Assess whether ultrasonographic measurement of antral cross sectional area (CSA) can be used reliably for the diagnosis of risk stomach which defined by a gastric content volume at risk of clinical consequences for pulmonary aspiration (i.e., presence of solid particles and/or gastric fluid volume >1.5 ml/kg) during the preoperative period in longstanding diabetic patients.

  • -Longstanding diabetic patients (group D)
  • -Non diabetic patients (group N) Study Design : Prospective observational study This study will be conducted at Kasr alainy Hospital; Faculty of Medicine, Cairo University.Patients scheduled for elective operations need General Anesthesia (GA) with endotracheal intubation in theatre of general surgery Preoperative ultrasound to assess gastric residual volume then general anesthesia induction will be Modified Rapid-sequence Induction as follow; Group (D)/(N) : propofol 2-3mg/kg and fentanyl 1 µg/Kg followed by Rocuronium 0.6-1.2 mg/kg.

Suction of Gastric Contents by Nasogastric tube (18 french) will be inserted First set of analysis will be comparing preoperative US findings in 2 groups.

Second set of analysis will be finding correlation between US findings and suction volume in two groups.

Outcome parameters: To assess the residual gastric volume in longstanding diabetic patients compared to non diabetic patients.

Sample Size ; was calculated as 48 patients (24) in each group.

What is being measured

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

  1. assessment of residual gastric volume in longstanding diabetic patients

    To assess the residual gastric volume in longstanding diabetic patients compared to non diabetic patients

    Measured: intra-operative

Secondary outcomes (1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastroparesis, run by Cairo 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 3 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Feb 2018. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

assessment of residual gastric volume in longstanding diabetic patients (time frame: intra-operative). 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 NCT03438305, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Feb 2018.
