About this study

Septic shock patients with invasive mechanical ventilation who were randomly enrolled in ICU were divided into esketamine group (test group) and remifentanil group (control group) according to the ratio of 1:1. The dose of vasopressor, the time of mechanical ventilation, the incidence of intestinal dysfunction and the dose of propofol were compared between the two groups. Through statistical analysis, it was determined whether esketamine combined with propofol could improve the prognosis of septic shock patients with invasive mechanical ventilation and reduce the adverse reactions of analgesic and sedative drugs compared with remifentanil combined with propofol.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine whether esketamine combined with propofol can improve the prognosis and reduce the adverse effects of analgesic and sedative drugs in septic shock patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation compared with remifentanil combined with propofol.

Study methods: septic shock patients with invasive mechanical ventilation in ICU were randomly divided into esketamine group (test group) and remifentanil group (control group) according to the ratio of 1:1. 120 patients are expected to be enrolled. The dose of vasopressor, the time of mechanical ventilation, the incidence of intestinal dysfunction and the dose of propofol were compared between the two groups. Through statistical analysis, it was determined whether esketamine combined with propofol could improve the prognosis of septic shock patients with invasive mechanical ventilation and reduce the adverse reactions of analgesic and sedative drugs compared with remifentanil combined with propofol.

From January 1, 2023 to January 1, 2024, the clinical study of the patients (60 cases) enrolled in the first phase was completed as expected in the study protocol. Stage objective: to count the relevant detection indicators of the two groups of patients, analyze and compare whether there is a difference between the primary endpoint and the secondary observation endpoint, and write a research paper and a mid-term summary.

From January 1, 2024 to January 1, 2025, the clinical study of patients (60 cases) enrolled in the second phase was completed according to the research protocol. Stage objective: to count the relevant detection indicators of the two groups of patients, analyze and compare whether there is a difference between the primary endpoint and the secondary observation endpoint, and write a research paper and a conclusion report.

Publication form of research results: 1-2 academic papers published in domestic or international journals.

What participants receive

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

  • EsketamineDrug

    The patients in the test group were given esmketamine (50mg / 2ml * branch, Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) 0.15-0.5mg/kg H was pumped intravenously. Two minutes after the administration, the pain was scored with the cpot pain observation scale. The target cpot was < 3 points. The dose of esketamine was adjusted according to the cpot score.

  • RemifentanilDrug

    Patients in the control group were given remifentanil (1mg / branch, Yichang humanwell Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) 0.05-2ug/kg Minutes after administration, the analgesic score was measured with cpot pain observation scale. The target cpot was less than 3 points, and the dose of remifentanil was adjusted according to the cpot score.

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 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Norepinephrine dosage in two groups (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05551910, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Sep 2022.
