Nasal Mask Ventilation During the Induction of General Anesthesia

January 15, 2017 updated by: Yandong Jiang, Massachusetts General Hospital

Determination of the Efficacy of Nasal Mask Ventilation During the Induction of General Anesthesia

Recently, the investigators demonstrated that nasal route ventilation is superior to the nasal-oral combined ventilation in the absence of jaw thrust and chin up maneuvers. The investigators hypothesize nasal mask ventilation may reduce the incidence of difficult mask ventilation during the induction of general anesthesia by: 1) producing a better seal than full face mask, and 2)establishing a greater airway patency and more effectively ventilate than full face mask ventilation. The investigators intend to test this hypothesis on adult patients during the induction of general anesthesia in the absence of muscle relaxation.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18-65 years of age
  • ASA physical status classification I-II
  • general anesthesia
  • elective surgery
  • who are able to breathe through both their nose and mouth while awake

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with major cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, cerebral vascular disease or American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status class III or greater.
  • Abnormal vital signs on the day of admission for surgery [heart rate (HR, >100 bpm or <40 bpm), blood pressure (BP, >180/100 mmHg or <90/60 mmHg), room air transcutaneous oxyhemoglobin saturation (SPO2) <96%] that are not correctable with his or her routine medication or commonly used pre-operative medication.
  • Unable to open mouth (<2.5 cm) or unable to breathe through their mouth or nose.
  • Any person with an anticipated difficult airway. This will include subjects that require or may require either a fiberoptic intubation or intubation while awake.
  • Gastric-esophageal reflex or a full stomach.
  • Neurological symptoms associated with neck extension, a neurological deficit from a previous stroke or spinal cord injury, a recent stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) within 2 weeks.
  • Pregnant women and women less than one month post-partum. Ruling out pregnancy will be conducted by careful history and physical examination as performed routinely prior to surgery. If the history is believed to be unreliable, the patient will be excluded unless a pregnancy test is performed and the result of the test is negative.
  • Emergency cases and subjects who have not adhered to the ASA NPO (Nil Per Os - Nothing By Mouth) guidelines.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: nasal mask
when the patient is apneic after the injection of anesthetics in the operating room, a nasal mask will be applied with positive pressure ventilation for 1 min. Then the nasal mask will be replaced with a full face mask for 1 min. Subsequently, the face mask will be replaced with the nasal mask.
Procedure: nasal mask
Using the nasal mask instead of the full face mask during the induction of general anesthesia
Procedure: full face mask
using a standard full face mask during the induction of general anesthesia.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: full face mask
when the patient is apneic after the injection of anesthetics in the operating room, a full face mask will be applied with positive pressure ventilation for 1 min. Then the full face mask will be replaced with a nasal mask for 1 min. Subsequently, the nasal mask will be replaced with the full face mask.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Tidal volume
Time Frame: in 30 minutes after the induction of general anesthesia
Tidal volume generated by the positive pressure ventilation during the induction of general anesthesia

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
