Comparison of Propofol Requirement Between Patients With Pituitary Somatotroph Tumor and With Nonfunctioning Pituitary Tumor in Transsphenoidal Pituitary Surgery Under Total Intravenous Anesthesia

February 7, 2019 updated by: Yonsei University

Investigators hypothesized that propofol dose for pituitary somatotroph patients might differ from nonfunctioning pituitary tumor, and investigators will evaluate a target controlled infusion (TCI) effect site concentration (Ce) of propofol for BIS score of 40 and LOC (loss of consciousness) in pituitary somatotroph patients in comparison with non functioning pituitary tumor patients.

On arrival in the operating room, standard monitoring devices, including electrocardiogram, pulse oximetry, noninvasive blood pressure cuff, and bispectral index (BIS) will be applied to the patients. Propofol with the modified Marsh pharmacokinetic parameters using a keo of 1.2/min will be administered through TCI pump (OrchestraBase Primea, Fresenius Vial, France). The initial target Ce of propofol will be chosen as 3.0 mg/mL (0.5 mg/mL of incremental size) based on an earlier study.

The sedation of patients will be assessed with BIS score and the modified observer's assessment of awareness and sedation (OAA/S). LOC was defined as an OAA/S lower than 2 (loss of response to spoken command to eye opening and loss of response to mild prodding or shaking). The primary end point of this study is the Ce of propofol when the BIS score is 40. The secondary end point of this study is the Ce of propofol at LOC.

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

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.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
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.

patients with nonfunctioning pituitary tumor undergoing transsphenoidal pituitary surgery under total intravenous anesthesia
Procedure: Not applicable (measuring subject's effect site concentration of propofol during the induction of general anesthesia)
The patients of two cohort group will undergo general anesthesia in the same way and therefore there is no intervention in this study.

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
effect site concentration of propofol
Time Frame: 5 minutes after subject's anesthesia induction
Investigators will assess the propofol requirement in pituitary tumor patients during the induction of general anesthesia when subject's BIS (Bispectral Index Score) is 40
5 minutes after subject's anesthesia induction

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
effect site concentration of propofol
Time Frame: 2 minutes after subject's anesthesia induction
Investigators will assess the propofol requirement in pituitary tumor patients during the induction of general anesthesia when the pituitary tumor patients lose their consciousness.
2 minutes after subject's anesthesia induction
