About this study

Official title: Clinical Effect Observation of Lower Limb Warming Blanket Combined With Dexmedetomidine in Preventing Postoperative Delirium and Chills in Elderly Patients Undergoing Spinal Surgery

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of lower limb warming blanket combined with dexmedetomidine (DEX) in preventing postoperative delirium (POD) and chills in elderly patients undergoing spinal surgery. Methods: A total of 160 elderly patients undergoing posterior spinal surgery under general anesthesia were selected and divided into control group (group N), heating group (group T), DEX group (group D) and heating combined with DEX group (group TD) according to the random number table method, 40 cases in each group. T group and TD group routine insulation and lower limb heating blanket. DEX was injected in group D and group TD. The dosage of anesthetics, the changes of body temperature and heart rate at different time points during operation, and the occurrence of postoperative chills and POD were compared among the groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intraoperative vital signs monitoring

    nasopharyngeal temperature

    Measured: 1 hour

  2. Intraoperative vital signs monitoring

    nasopharyngeal temperature

    Measured: 2 hour

  3. Intraoperative vital signs monitoring

    nasopharyngeal temperature

    Measured: 3 hour

  4. The incidence of postoperative chills

    chills refer to the Wrench classification criteria as follows : 0: no chills; grade 1: peripheral vascular contraction, vertical hair, but no muscle fibrillation; level 2: only one muscle group had muscle fibrillation; grade 3: muscle fibrillation in multiple groups; level 4: general tremor; ≥ 1 level was judged to have chills.

    Measured: 1 hour

  5. The incidence of POD after operation

    The results of POD in each group were recorded, and the POD was evaluated by CAM-CR scale. The incidence of POD at 24,48 and 72 h after operation was compared among the groups

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Postoperative extubation time

    The recovery time from the end of surgery to extubation was recorded.

    Measured: 1 hour

  7. Postoperative incision infection rate

    The incidence of postoperative incision infection was recorded.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dexmetomidine and Lower limb heating blanket in people with Spine Surgery and Postoperative Delirium and Chills, run by Jincheng General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 5 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?

Intraoperative vital signs monitoring (time frame: 1 hour). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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.
