About this study

Official title: Incidence of Opioid-induced Respiratory Depression in Medical and Trauma Patients on the General Care Floor Receiving Patient-controlled Analgesia and Nurse Administered Intravenous Opioids Monitored by Capnography and Pulse Oximetry: A Prospective, Blinded Observational Study

The primary objective of this prospective, blinded observational study is to correlate assessment of sedation and respiratory status with capnography and pulse oximetry monitoring in hospitalized adult medical and trauma patients receiving patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) or nurse administered intravenous (IV) opioids for acute pain. Nursing assessment of respiratory status and sedation level will be correlated with capnography and pulse oximetry values as technology-supported monitoring to identify respiratory depression and opioid-induced sedation. The secondary objective is to identify capnography and pulse oximetry values that correlate with respiratory decompensation and opioid-induced sedation in medical and trauma patients on the general care floor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hypoventilation

    Continuous respiratory monitoring using capnography will be performed for collecting data of end-tidal carbon dioxide (etCO2)

    Measured: Change from baseline measurement observed within 60 minutes after opioid administration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Hypoxemia

    Continuous respiratory monitoring using pulse oximetry will be performed for collecting data of oxygen saturation (SpO2)

    Measured: Change from baseline measurement observed within 60 minutes after opioid administration

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Depression and Sedation, run by Poudre Valley Health System.

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 10 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2021. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Hypoventilation (time frame: Change from baseline measurement observed within 60 minutes after opioid administration). 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 NCT03647696, which also lists 14 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 11 Jun 2021.
