Trial summary

In the pathophysiology of insomnia, the increase of the orexin-A (OXA) peptide released from orexin neurons in the lateral hypothalamus plays an important role. Orexins takes part at the emergence of anesthesia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Plasma Orexin-A Levels and Awakening Time From Anesthesia in Patients With and Without Insomnia Who Had Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under General Anesthesia

In the pathophysiology of insomnia, the increase of the orexin-A (OXA) peptide released from orexin neurons in the lateral hypothalamus plays an important role. Orexins takes part at the emergence of anesthesia. In the literature, investigators could not attain any studies about the arousal of insomnia patients from anesthesia. In this study, the effect of this peptide on the emergence process from anesthesia was investigated by comparing plasma OXA levels before and after anesthesia in insomnia patients.

Read the detailed description

ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) I-II patients aged 18-65 years who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were included in the study. Patients were evaluated with the Jenkins Sleep Disorders scale and Epworth Sleepiness scale during preoperative examination and were divided into insomnia and control groups. Blood samples were obtained for OXA and glucose levels at anesthesia induction, 5 minutes after extubation and 30 minutes after extubation. The times from stopping anesthesia to eyes opening and extubation and end-tidal sevoflurane concentrations at these time points were recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Orexin-A Levels

    plasma OXA levels anesthesia induction and after anesthesia in insomnia patients

    Measured: at anesthesia induction, 5 minutes after extubation and 30 minutes after extubation

  2. Orexin-A Levels

    plasma OXA levels anesthesia induction and after anesthesia in control group

    Measured: at anesthesia induction, 5 minutes after extubation and 30 minutes after extubation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. recovery time from general anesthesia

    The relationship between plasma OXA levels and recovery times from anesthesia in insomnia patients

    Measured: time of eyes opening and time of extubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Insomnia and Anesthesia, run by Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 5 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 15 Mar 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Orexin-A Levels (time frame: at anesthesia induction, 5 minutes after extubation and 30 minutes after extubation). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05664295, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 15 Mar 2023.
