Effects of Neuromuscular Blockade Level and Intra-abdominal Pressure on Surgical Conditions and Cardiopulmonary Responses During Laparoscopic Colon Surgery With the Trendelenburg Position

November 9, 2017 updated by: Kook Hyun Lee, Seoul National University Hospital
The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of low abdominal pressure vs. standard abdominal pressure on the cardiac and respiratory function of the patients undergoing laparoscopic colon surgery in Trendelenberg position. It was also designed to evaluate the effect of the degree of neuromuscular blockade on the surgical condition of the patients undergoing laparoscopic colon surgery in Trendelenberg position.

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.

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
Cardiac Index
Time Frame: 30 min after onset of laparoscopy
Cardiac index 30 min after onset of laparoscopy. The cardiac index was measured with an arterial waveform analysis system (FloTrac/EV1000, version 4.0; Edwards Life Sciences, Irvine, CA, USA) from the radial artery.
30 min after onset of laparoscopy

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Arterial Blood Pressure (MBP)
Time Frame: 1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
Mean arterial blood pressure measured during laparoscopic surgery. The mean arterial blood pressure was measured with an arterial waveform analysis system (FloTrac/EV1000, version 4.0; Edwards Life Sciences, Irvine, CA, USA) from the radial artery.
1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
Stroke Volume Index (SVI)
Time Frame: 1, 30, 60, 90, 120 min after onset of laparoscopy
Stroke volume index during the surgery. The stroke volume index was measured with an arterial waveform analysis system (FloTrac/EV1000, version 4.0; Edwards Life Sciences, Irvine, CA, USA) from the radial artery.
1, 30, 60, 90, 120 min after onset of laparoscopy
PaO2
Time Frame: 1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
PaO2 measured during laparoscopic surgery. The PaO2 (arterial partial pressure of oxygen) was measured with the blood gas analyzer (GEM Premier 3000, Model 5700; Instrumentation Laboratory, Lexington, MA, USA).
1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
Pulmonary Compliance
Time Frame: 1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
Pulmonary compliance during laparoscopic surgery. The pulmonary compliance was calculated from the plateau and peak inspiratory pressures, positive end-expiratory pressure, and tidal volume measured with an anesthetic machine (Primus; Dräger, Lübeck, Germany).
1, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after onset of laparoscopy
Surgical Rating Scale
Time Frame: 1 min after laparoscopic procedure
The surgical rating scale was assessed by the surgeon and graded as a five-point scale: optimal, good, acceptable, poor, and extremely poor conditions.
1 min after laparoscopic procedure
