About this study

Official title: The Effect of Mindfulness Meditation on Bispectral Index Monitoring, Physiological Findings and Cortisol Levels During Dental Implant Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The aim of this pioneer study was to evaluate the efficacy (heart rate value, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, cortisol levels, BIS monitoring, patients' anxiety) of Mindfulness Meditation as a sedative technique during dental implant surgery.

Read the detailed description

Since anxiety is a form of psychological stress, an increase in anxiety results in a surge in stress levels. The role of sedation in dental surgery cannot be overemphasised. The reduction in pain and anxiety eventually causes better cooperation and patients' satisfaction. Therefore, balancing anxiety and/or stress levels in patients would be useful to ensure patient safety during treatment.Therefore, the aim of this pioneer study was to evaluate the efficacy (heart rate value, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, cortisol levels, BIS monitoring, patients' anxiety) of Mindfulness Meditation as a sedative technique during dental implant surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Mindfulness MeditationOther

    Mindfulness meditation has been reported to produce beneficial effects on a number of psychiatric, functional somatic, and stress-related symptoms and has therefore increasingly been incorporated into psychotherapeutic programs

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mindfulness GroupExperimentalThe patients in this group received mindfulness meditation before dental implant surgery.
Receives: Other: Mindfulness Meditation
Conventional GroupNo interventionThe patients in this group did not receive mindfulness meditation before dental implant surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Bispectral Index (BIS) monitoring

    The level of sedation achieved by meditation was assessed with BIS device. BIS values range between 100 and 0 and give the clinicians objective information about the depth of sedation.

    Measured: Change from baseline to 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th and 30th minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Cortisol

    The cortisol levels were biochemically evaluated

    Measured: At the baseline, immediately before and 5-minutes after surgery for both groups.

  2. Blood pressure

    systolic and diastolic blood pressure (in mmHg) via vital signs monitor for both groups

    Measured: Every 5-minutes starting from baseline until the end of surgery for both groups

  3. arterial blood oxygen saturation

    in 'percentage %' via vital signs monitor for both groups

    Measured: Every 5-minutes starting from baseline until the end of surgery for both groups

  4. heart rate value

    in 'beats per minute' via vital signs monitor for both groups

    Measured: Every 5-minutes starting from baseline until the end of surgery for both groups

A study testing Mindfulness Meditation in people with Mindfulness and Dental Implant, run by Cukurova 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 0 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 28 Feb 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?

Change of Bispectral Index (BIS) monitoring (time frame: Change from baseline to 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th and 30th 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 28 Feb 2023.
