About this study

Official title: Comparison of Intubation Conditions During Rapid Sequence Induction Obtained With Modified Time Principal Induction With a Standard Intubation Dose of Rocuronium Versus Succinylcholine : A Prospective Non-inferiority Randomized and Blind Trial

The purpose of this study is to assess and compare conditions for tracheal intubation obtained with modified time principal induction with 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium and 1 mg/kg succinylcholine. Specifically, the investigators will be evaluating ease of laryngoscopy, vocal cord view, vocal cord opening, and movement of limbs and coughing during tracheal intubation in order to assess intubation conditions, to compare efficiency and success rate of tracheal intubation between two induction agents and to determine the rate of patient awareness during induction and post-operative recall of paralysis.

Conditions
Anesthesia
Being tested
Modified Time Principle Induction (MTPI) with rocuronium, RSI succinylcholine

What participants receive

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

  • Modified Time Principle Induction (MTPI) with rocuroniumDrug

    Participants will be induced using lidocaine 1 mg/kg IV, an opioid such a fentanyl (1-2 mcg/kg) IV, followed by 0.6 mg/kg IV rocuronium, and IV propofol with dosage at the discretion of the care team, administered within 10 seconds of rocuronium and the intubation will be performed with a C-MAC

  • RSI succinylcholineDrug

    Participants will be induced as per routine care using lidocaine 1 mg/kg IV, an opioid such a fentanyl (1-2 mcg/kg) IV, propofol 1-2 mg/kg IV, and succinylcholine 1mg/kg IV, and the intubation will be performed with a C-MAC

What is being measured

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

  1. Ease of laryngoscopy

    Ease of laryngoscopy is scored categorically as easy (Jaw relaxed, no resistance to blade during laryngoscopy) , fair (Jaw not fully relaxed, some resistance to blade) or difficult (Poor jaw relaxation, active resistance by patient to laryngoscopy)

    Measured: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))

  2. Position of vocal cords

    Position of vocal cords is scored categorically as abducted, intermediate or closed

    Measured: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))

  3. Movement of vocal cords

    Movement of vocal cords is scored categorically as none , moving or closing

    Measured: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))

  4. Number of participants who moved their limbs during intubation

    none, slight or vigorous

    Measured: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))

  5. number of participants who coughed during tracheal intubation

    none, diaphragm or sustained (>10s)

    Measured: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Number of participants for whom tracheal intubations were successful on the first attempt

    Measured: 5 minutes after intubation and successful ventilation

  2. Number of times tracheal intubations are attempted

    Measured: 5 minutes after intubation and successful ventilation

  3. Number of participants for whom tracheal intubations failed

    Measured: After 3 failed intubation attempts (less than 7 minutes from start of intubation)

  4. Airway view at the time of laryngoscopy as categorized by the modified Cormack-Lehane classification (before external manipulation)

    Data is reported categorically as follows 1(Full view of glottis),2a(Partial view of glottis), 2b(Only posterior extremity of glottis seen or only arytenoid cartilages), 3(Only epiglottis seen, none of glottis seen) and 4(Neither glottis nor epiglottis seen)

    Measured: from start of induction to 5 minutes of successful ventilation

  5. Satisfaction of providers with intubating conditions

    Providers will answer yes or no for satisfaction

    Measured: from 5 minutes of successful ventilation

  6. Heart Rate

    Measured: from the start of induction drug administration to about 5 minutes after successful ventilation

  7. Diastolic Blood Pressure

    Measured: from the start of induction drug administration to about 5 minutes after successful ventilation

  8. Systolic Blood Pressure

    Measured: from the start of induction drug administration to about 5 minutes after successful ventilation

  9. End-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2)

    Measured: from the start of induction drug administration to about 5 minutes after successful ventilation

  10. Oxygen saturation (SpO2)

    Measured: from the start of induction drug administration to about 5 minutes after successful ventilation

  11. Number of participants that had injury associated with intubation

    Injury is defined as injury to dentition, lips, tongue, and pharyngeal bleeding.

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  12. Number of participants with muscle paralysis awareness prior to loss of consciousness as assessed by the Post Anesthesia Care Unit Survey of Modified Time Principle Induction

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  13. Number of participants who had presence of sore throat as assessed by the score on the Post Anesthesia Care Unit Survey of Modified Time Principle Induction

    This is scored from 0(no pain) to 10(worst pain)

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  14. Number of participants who had nausea as assessed by the score on the Post Anesthesia Care Unit Survey of Modified Time Principle Induction

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  15. Number of participants who had vomiting as assessed by the score on the Post Anesthesia Care Unit Survey of Modified Time Principle Induction

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  16. Overall patient satisfaction as assessed by the score on the Post Anesthesia Care Unit Survey of Modified Time Principle Induction

    This is scored from 0(not satisfied) to 10(extremely satisfied)

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  17. Number of participants who had recollection of pain on induction

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Modified Time Principle Induction (MTPI) with rocuronium and RSI succinylcholine in people with Anesthesia, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston at 1 site in United States.

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 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lauren M Nakazawa, MD,MBA (713-500-6775, Lauren.M.Nakazawa@uth.tmc.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ease of laryngoscopy (time frame: During procedure (Between laryngoscope insertion to onset of ventilation (less than 7 minutes))). The study lists 5 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.

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 10 Dec 2024.
