About this study

Official title: Effect of Propofol on Postoperative Sleep Quality in Elderly Patients With Sleep Disorders: a Multicentre, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Study

This study intends to conduct postoperative sleep intervention for elderly patients with sleep disorders undergoing surgery. We hope to explore whether propofol can improve the postoperative sleep quality of elderly patients with sleep disorders, prevent the occurrence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients, relieve patients' pain, promote patients' postoperative rehabilitation, and provide reference for realizing the rapid rehabilitation of elderly patients with sleep disorders through intravenous administration of research drugs, on the premise of improving patient comfort and ensuring patient safety.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of propofol compared with normal saline and dexmedetomidine in the effect of postoperative sleep quality in elderly subjects with sleep disorders. Subjects were randomly assigned to propofol group, dexmedetomidine group or normal saline control group. Propofol group: At 21:00 on the night of tracheal extubation, propofol was administered intravenously. MOAAS/S was used to evaluate subjects 30 seconds after the end of administration.Dexmedetomidine group: treated with dexmedetomidine at 21 PM on the day of tracheal extubation. During administration, patients were evaluated with MOAA/S every 2min. Normal saline control group: 21 on the night of tracheal extubation: Normal saline was injected intravenously at the rate of 0.5ml/(kg.h) beginning at 00. During the administration, patients were evaluated with MOAA/S every 2min. The effect of drugs on sleep improvement was evaluated by subjective scale and objective electrical monitoring.

What participants receive

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

  • PropofolDrug

    At 21:00 on the night of tracheal extubation, propofol was administered intravenously with a microinjection pump for 2min. MOAAS/S was used to evaluate subjects 30 seconds after the end of administration.

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    Dexmedetomidine was at 21 PM on the day of tracheal extubation: Dexmedetomidine was injected intravenously beginning at 00. During administration, patients were evaluated with MOAA/S every 2min.

  • SalineDrug

    At 21:00 PM on the day of tracheal extubation, normal saline was injected intravenously. During the administration, patients were evaluated with MOAA/S every 2 minutes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sleep improvement efficiency

    The total score of The Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionaire was > 100 (The score ranges from 0 to 100, a higher scores mean a better outcome.), the incubation period of sleep was < 30min, the sleep duration was > 5h, and the sleep quality was good. Assess changes at several points in time.

    Measured: Preoperative, postoperative 1-7 days, postoperative 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety of drug use

    Adverse events and serious adverse events.

    Measured: The first night after surgery

  2. Sleep scale assessment

    Preoperative and postoperative sleep was assessed using Pittsburgh sleep quality index. Assess changes at several points in time.

    Measured: Preoperative, postoperative 1-7 days, postoperative 30 days

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
