About this study

Official title: Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Internal Jugular Vein Cross Sectional Area for Prediction of Post Spinal Hypotension in Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgeries

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of internal jugular cross sectional area for predicting the occurrence of PSAH.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of internal jugular cross sectional area for predicting the occurrence of PSAH. Spinal anaesthesia is frequently used in daily clinical practice. Postspinal anaesthesia hypotension (PSAH) is a common side effect with an incidence of 15.3 to 33% that may result in organ hypoperfusion and ischaemic events. Patients' susceptibility to intraoperative hypotension can be influenced by the sensory block level, age, preoperative volume status , physical status, pre-operative medications and fasting.

PSAH due to spinal blockade is principally a consequence of diminished systemic vascular resistance after blockade of preganglionic sympathetic fibres. Many attempts have been tried to prevent PSAH, such as intravenous volume preload or prophylactic vasopressors. However, fluid infusion has been proved to lower the incidence of PSAH and significantly decrease vasopressor requirements. At the same time, empirical volume loading carries the potential of volume overload, particularly in patients with cardiac disease. Consequently, the search for predictors of PSAH is becoming mandatory to avoid blind volume loading and reserve it only for patients who are expected to develop PSAH. .

What participants receive

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

  • Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Internal Jugular Vein Cross Sectional AreaDiagnostic test

    Measuring the internal jugular vein cross section area and relate this to the incidence of hypotension after spinal anesthesia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Predictive value of internal jugular vein (IJV) cross sectional area.

    The primary outcome is to evaluate the predictive value of internal jugular diameter cross sectional area for detecting PSAH

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Post-spinal Anesthesia Hypotension, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 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 23 Jul 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 Egypt. 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?

Predictive value of internal jugular vein (IJV) cross sectional area. (time frame: 30 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 23 Jul 2021.
