About this study

Official title: Randomized Control Study Evaluating Ketamine as Sedative Agent in Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)

This is a study evaluating the usage of Ketamine as sedative agent in ERCP. The usage of Ketamine will be compared to the standard sedation in our center, which is Midazolam in combination with Pethidine as analgesia.

Read the detailed description

This is a double blinded study whereby both the surgeons and patients are blinded from the sedative agent used. Patients admitted to UKMMC requiring ERCP will randomized into 2 groups after evaluating the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients will be divided into two arms, Midazolam and Ketamine group respectively. Before the initiation of the the scope, patient would be given specified dose of sedation accordingly. All the parameters and outcome would be measured during and after the procedure.

Being tested
Ketamine Hydrochloride

What is being measured

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

  1. depth of sedation

    based on Ramsay Sedation Scale, from a scale of 1-6.

    1. Patient is anxious and agitated or restless, or both
    2. Patient is co-operative, oriented, and tranquil
    3. Patient responds to commands only
    4. Patient exhibits brisk response to light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus
    5. Patient exhibits a sluggish response to light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus
    6. Patient exhibits no response The aim of sedation is a score of 3-4

    Measured: 1 hour

  2. completion rate

    to evaluate completion rate between Ketamine and Midazolam group

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Surgeon satisfaction score

    subjective scoring of surgeon regarding overall experience of the ERCP from a score of 0-10.

    0- poor, 5- moderate, 10- excellent

    Measured: within 4 hours after completion of ERCP

  2. Patient satisfaction score

    subjective scoring of patients regarding overall experience of the ERCP from a score of 0-10.

    0- poor, 5- moderate, 10- excellent

    Measured: within 4 hours after completion of ERCP

  3. evaluate the occurrence of hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia, tachycardia, hypoxia, respiratory rate abnormality, nausea, vomiting and emergence symptoms

    recording the adverse events of each sedation.

    1. Hypotension: defined as a systolic blood pressure drop greater than 20mmHg to a value less than 90mmHg
    2. Hypertension: defined as a systolic blood pressure increase greater than 20mmHg or to a value more than 140mmHg
    3. Bradycardia: defined as heart rate less than 50 after the initiation of sedation or decrease in heart rate more than 20 beats per minute
    4. Tachycardia: defined as heart rate more than 100 after the initiation of sedation or increase in heart rate more than 20 beats per minute
    5. Hypoxia: defined by oxygen saturation less than 95%
    6. Respiratory rate abnormality
    7. Nausea, vomiting, emergence symptoms

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ketamine Hydrochloride in people with Ketamine Adverse Reaction, run by Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre at 1 site in Malaysia.

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 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2020. 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 Malaysia. 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.

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.

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

depth of sedation (time frame: 1 hour). 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.
