Trial summary

Osmotherapy with mannitol has been a common practice in patients with raised ICP. Monitoring its effect on ICP can be performed invasively and non-invasively. Due to a validated correlation between invasive ICP monitoring and ONSD measurement, it can be a tool to monitor acute and long term effects of osmotherapy… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Intravenous Administration of 20% Mannitol on the Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter(ONSD) in Patients With Raised Intracranial Pressure

Osmotherapy with mannitol has been a common practice in patients with raised ICP. Monitoring its effect on ICP can be performed invasively and non-invasively. Due to a validated correlation between invasive ICP monitoring and ONSD measurement, it can be a tool to monitor acute and long term effects of osmotherapy non-invasively on ICP. This study examines the acute changes in sonographically measured ONSD brought about by the administration of mannitol. This can correlate with the changes in ICP in such patients and can be utilized as a tool for decision making/ point-of-care utility.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective cohort based observational study including 40 patients admitted in the adult ICU at our center diagnosed as either a case of TBI/ acute stroke/ intracranial hemorrhages with a mean screening ONSD of more than 5mm under mannitol osmotherapy. ONSD were measured by a high frequency linear array probe (>10 Hz) at the time of screening. Mannitol was then administered at doses prescribed by the treating physician over 20-30 minutes via a dedicated intravenous line. ONSDs were measured again at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after completion of administration of mannitol. Demographic data, baseline ventilator parameters of patients on mechanical ventilation, GCS and mean arterial pressure at each time points were recorded. Comparison of variables at these time points were made.

What participants receive

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

  • Optic nerve sheath diameter measurementDevice

    Also called ONSD

    ONSD measurements done at screening (T1), 30 minutes after mannitol infusion (T2), 60 minutes (T3) and 120 minutes (T4)

  • MannitolDrug

    Also called Osmotherapy

    Mannitol at dose of 0.25 to 1 gm/kg over 20 minutes via a dedicated IV line

What is being measured

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

  1. optic nerve sheath diameter at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after mannitol administration

    Change in optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD)

    Measured: 30, 60 and 120 minutes

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation between change in ONSD and Mean arterial pressure

    Correlation with change in ONSD and Mean arterial pressure

    Measured: 30, 60, and 120 minutes

  2. Correlation between dose and change in ONSD

    Dose subgroups of <0.5gm/kg and >/= 0.5 gm/kg were compared and the correlated with changes in ONSD.

    Measured: 30, 60 and 120 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Raised Intracranial Pressure, run by Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Institute Of Medicine. at 1 site in Nepal.

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 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 16 Dec 2019. 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 Nepal. 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?

optic nerve sheath diameter at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after mannitol administration (time frame: 30, 60 and 120 minutes). 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 Dec 2019.
