About this study

Official title: Oral Amantadine Versus IV Amantadine to Attenuate the Hemodynamic Response to Laryngoscopy, Tracheal Intubation and Surgical Incision and Their Effect on β-endorphin: A Randomized Clinical Trial

this study will be undertaken-to evaluate the effect of oral amantadine versus IV amantadine premedication on the hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy ,tracheal intubation and surgical incision and their effect on β-endorphins.

Read the detailed description

Direct laryngoscopy and passage of endotracheal tube through the larynx is a noxious stimulus, which can provoke untoward response in the cardiovascular, respiratory and other physiological systems .Amantadine is a non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, and compared to ketamine, it is well tolerated with fewer side effects (mainly dizziness, sedation, and dry mouth). Amantadine's formulation permits the oral route for drug delivery, as well as the IV route. The side-effects profile of amantadine via all routes seems not to be harmful in appropriate dosages.. Amantadine has been clinically used as an antiviral drug, for dementia, and in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and spasticity. It is a non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, and compared to ketamine, it is well tolerated with fewer side effects (mainly dizziness, sedation, and dry mouth). Amantadine's formulation permits the oral route for drug delivery, as well as the IV route. The side-effects profile of amantadine via all routes seems not to be harmful in appropriate dosages.

In the central nervous system, beta-endorphins bind mu-opioid receptors and exert their primary action at presynaptic nerve terminals. However, instead of inhibiting substance P, they exert their analgesic effect by inhibiting the release of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, resulting in excess production of dopamine.

this study will be undertaken-to evaluate the effect of oral amantadine versus IV amantadine premedication on the hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy ,tracheal intubation and surgical incision and their effect on β-endorphins.

What is being measured

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

  1. the effect of oral amantadine versus IV amantadine premedication on laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation on β-endorphins .

    changes of the mean arterial blood pressure (mmhg)

    Measured: baseline( before medication) , 5 minutes before induction of anaesthesia, 3 minutes after induction , 5 minutes after tracheal intubation and 5 minutes after skin incision

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the effect of oral amantadine versus IV amantadine premedication on the hemodynamic response to surgical incision

    β-endorphins level in the blood

    Measured: 2 blood samples one just before medication and the second after 10 minutes after skin incision

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing oral Amantadine sulfate and i.v Amantadine Sulfate in people with Intubation, Intratracheal, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 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 16 Nov 2021. 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 Egypt. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

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?

Contact Ghada Abu El Fadl, MD (01005802086, ghadafadl77@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the effect of oral amantadine versus IV amantadine premedication on laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation on β-endorphins . (time frame: baseline( before medication) , 5 minutes before induction of anaesthesia, 3 minutes after induction , 5 minutes after tracheal intubation and 5 minutes after skin incision). 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 16 Nov 2021.
