Trial summary

The stapedius reflex protects the ear from the loud noise. The measurement of the intraoperative electrically evoked stapedial reflex threshold (ESRT) during pediatric cochlear implants (CIs) is used to confirm that the implant is functioning correctly and determine the maximum comfortable level .

About this study

Official title: Intravenous Lidocaine Reduces Remifentanil and Propofol Requirements Without Altering the Electrical Stapedial Reflex Threshold in Pediatric Cochlear Implants

The stapedius reflex protects the ear from the loud noise. The measurement of the intraoperative electrically evoked stapedial reflex threshold (ESRT) during pediatric cochlear implants (CIs) is used to confirm that the implant is functioning correctly and determine the maximum comfortable level . Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and remifentanil is frequently used for pediatric CIs as it does not suppress the ESRT. However, high doses of remifentanil exacerbates postoperative pain and increased opioid consumption.

What participants receive

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

  • LidocaineDrug

    Also called Xylocaine

    Before induction of anesthesia; children in group LID received an iv bolus dose of LIDOCAINE 1 mg/kg over 5 minutes followed by 1 mg Kg-1 h-1 ivi until the start of skin closure.

  • Na CL 0.9%Other

    Also called isotonic saline solution

    Before induction of anesthesia; children in group C equivalent volumes of Na Cl 0.9% over the same period instead of LIDOCAINE.

What is being measured

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

  1. Remifentanil consumption

    microgram per kilogram

    Measured: at the end of the surgey

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. ESRT responses

    the surgeon assessed ESRT response at the basal, middle, and apical areas of the electrode array by visual monitoring of the stapedius muscle using direct

    Measured: After insertion of the electrode and after reversal of any residual muscle relaxant (TOF response > 0.9),

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lidocaine and Na CL 0.9% in people with Anesthesia, run by Wahba bakhet.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 1 May 2020. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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?

Remifentanil consumption (time frame: at the end of the surgey). 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 1 May 2020.
