About this study

Official title: The Effect of Different Etco2 Levels on the End-tidal Concentration of Sevoflurane in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

he assessment of adequate levels of anaesthesia traditionally relies not only on a patient's movement but also on the hemodynamic response (or both) to a surgical stimulus

Read the detailed description

Currently a derivative of MAC namely, end tidal partial pressure (FET) displayed on the work station as concentration , maybe an alternative useful measure of the anaesthetic effect of an inhaled anaesthetic agent

. Many pharmacological factors have been associated with alterations in MAC and Mac derivatives such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), analgesics, and anesthetics.

However, few studies have focused on physiological factors, such as hypercarbia or hypocarbia. A correlation has been found between Paco2 and Etco2 in ventilated patients with healthy lungs. Some authors have suggested that Etco2 could be considered appropriate for estimating Paco2 even in critical patients. Knowledge of the effects of Paco2 on end tidal concentration of sevoflurane among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy may help anaesthesiologists titrate sevoflurane carefully and precisely during different mechanical ventilation settings to avoid dose-dependent hypotension, impaired cardiac contractility, and hypothermia caused by excessive anaesthetic depth of sevoflurane.

Being tested
low etco2, normal etco2, high etco2

What participants receive

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

  • low etco2Procedure or surgery

    Etco2 levels will be adjusted at levels ranging between 25 mm Hg and 30 mm Hg

  • normal etco2Procedure or surgery

    Etco2 levels will be adjusted at levels ranging between 31 mm Hg and 40 mm Hg

  • high etco2Procedure or surgery

    Etco2 levels will be adjusted at levels ranging between 41 mm Hg and 45 mm Hg

What is being measured

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

  1. end tidal concentration of sevoflurane

    end tidal concentration of sevoflurane is measured by multiple gas analyser during operation

    Measured: Total time of operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing low etco2, normal etco2 and high etco2 in people with End-tidal Sevoflurane and End-tidal Carbon Dioxide, run by Tanta 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 2 inclusion and 11 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 30 Jul 2024. 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?

end tidal concentration of sevoflurane (time frame: Total time of operation). 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 30 Jul 2024.
