Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to identify patient and provider-chosen factors that put patients at risk for the development of hypoxemia (oxygen saturation < 90% for 5 seconds) during endoscopy and to use this knowledge to develop a treatment protocol for specific causes of hypoxemia in adult esophagogastroduodenoscopy… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Development of a Protocol for Prevention and Treatment of Laryngospasm and Other Causes of Hypoxemia Based on Identified Risk Factors in Adult Outpatients Undergoing Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) Under Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC)

The purpose of this study is to identify patient and provider-chosen factors that put patients at risk for the development of hypoxemia (oxygen saturation < 90% for 5 seconds) during endoscopy and to use this knowledge to develop a treatment protocol for specific causes of hypoxemia in adult esophagogastroduodenoscopy outpatients.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of laryngospasm during EGDs

    Determine if prophylactic suctioning after sedation but prior to introduction of endoscope changes the incidence of laryngospasm during EGDs.

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Identify risk factors for the development of hypoxemia during EGD

    These risk factors include both patient factors (ASA class, history of cardiopulmonary disease, BMI, social history, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, STOP-BANG scores and age) and provider-chosen factors (medications given, airway interventions, percent and flow of oxygen in liters per minute, and whether or not the patient was suctioned prior to or during the procedure).

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of copious secretions, choking, desaturation, and shortened or aborted procedures

    Determine if prophylactic suctioning after sedation but prior to introduction of endoscope changes the incidence of copious secretions, choking, desaturation, and shortened or aborted procedures.

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Identify the various causes of hypoxemia during EGD

    These risk include apnea, hypoventilation, laryngospasm, or other cause of airway obstruction

    Measured: 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prophylactic suctioning when clinically indicated in people with Laryngospasm and Hypoxemia, run by Envision Healthcare Scientific Intelligence, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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 17 Mar 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 United States. 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?

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?

Incidence of laryngospasm during EGDs (time frame: 2 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Mar 2021.
