About this study
Official title: Effect of Head Position on Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Endotracheal Intubation(MACEI)of Sevoflurane in Children With Obstructive Airway
Children scheduled for tonsillectomy surgery were recruited into the study. General anesthesia was induced with 8% sevoflurane inhaled with 8 l.min-1 of oxygen via mask, followed by adjustment of inspired sevoflurane to the target concentration based on the result in previous patient at which laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation were attempted and maintained for 12 min. All responses to tracheal intubation were assessed. At the end of the procedure, sevoflurane was titrated to the target concentration, which was kept constant for 12 min before a standard stimulus was applied to determine whether the children was awake. The Dixon's 'up and down'method was used to determine progression of subsequent concentrations.The aim of this study was to determine whether the minimum alveolar concentration of endotracheal intubation(MACEI)of sevoflurane in children with obstructive airway are different from that observed in normal children.
Read the detailed description
38 patients American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II aged 2-8 years undergoing tonsillectomy surgery were randomized to either the patient's head in the neutral position or 30 degree rotated lateral position. All patients were preoxygenated using 100% oxygen with a normal tidal volumen for 3 min. The circuit was primed with sevoflurane 8% at a fresh gas flow of 8 Litre/min (L/min) for 1 min. Anaesthesia was induced with inhaled sevoflurane up to 5% in oxygen via facemask with fresh gas flow at 6 L/min.After loss of consciousness, the inspired concentration of sevoflurane was maintained 10-12min a predetermined end-tidal concentration. A single experienced anaesthetist in the use of endotracheal devices inserted the devices according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Neuromuscular blocking agents and other intravenous anesthetics were not given. One nurse, who was blinded to the anaesthetic concentration, classified responses by the patient to tracheal intubation as either "movement" or "not movement". Assesment was made for jaw relaxation and graded with intubation score. The sum of intubation scores >4 was defined as a failure of insertion. The end-tidal (ET) sevoflurane concentration used for each patient was determined using the Dixon's up-and-down method. The ratio of the end-tidal to predetermined end-tidal concentrations was maintained at 0.95-1.0 for at least 10 minutes to establish equilibration before device insertion was attempted. The first patient received a 5.0% sevoflurane concentration and the step size of increase/decrease was 0.5%. If the endotracheal device insertion was successful, sevoflurane concentration for the next patient was decrease by 0.5%. If not, sevoflurane concentration was increased by the same amount for the next patient. For their comfort, patients experiencing movement received a 2 mg/kg bolus dose of propofol,fentanyl 2.0ug/kg and rocuronium 0.6mg/kg.If the endotracheal device insertion was successful,fentanyl 2.0ug/kg and rocuronium 0.6mg/kg was also administered.

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

To compare the minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration of endotracheal intubation required for different head position in children with obstructive airway.
Measured: The sevoflurane concentration is obtained when tracheal intubated immediately.
Secondary outcomes (4)
intubation score
One nurse, who was blinded to the anaesthetic concentration, classified responses by the patient to tracheal intubation as either "movement" or "not movement". Assesment was made for jaw relaxation and graded with intubation score. The sum of intubation scores >4 was defined as a failure of insertion.
Measured: The intubation score is obtained when tracheal intubation was inserted immediately.
blood pressure include systolic and diastolic in mmHg
To compare the evolution of blood pressure include systolic and diastolic during different head position group.
Measured: Baseline and every 1 minutes until 10 minutes after insertion of the endotracheal intubation.
heart rate in bpm
To compare the evolution of heart rate during different head position group.
Measured: Baseline and every 1 minutes until 10 minutes after insertion of the endotracheal intubation.

Clinical summary

Children scheduled for tonsillectomy surgery were recruited into the study. General anesthesia was induced with 8% sevoflurane inhaled with 8 l.min-1 of oxygen via mask, followed by adjustment of inspired sevoflurane to the target concentration based on the result in previous patient at which laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation were attempted and maintained for 12 min. All responses to tracheal intubation were assessed. At the end of the procedure, sevoflurane was titrated to the target concentration, which was kept constant for 12 min before a standard stimulus was applied to determine whether the children was awake. The Dixon's 'up and down'method was used to determine progression of subsequent concentrations.The aim of this study was to determine whether the minimum alveolar concentration of endotracheal intubation(MACEI)of sevoflurane in children with obstructive airway are different from that observed in normal children.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Sevoflurane in people with Sevoflurane and Endotracheal Intubation, run by Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University at 1 site in China.
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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 May 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 China. 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?
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?
minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration of endotracheal intubation (time frame: The sevoflurane concentration is obtained when tracheal intubated immediately.). 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 NCT03522402, which also lists 7 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?
