Brain Oxygenation During Prehospital Anesthesia (BOPRA-P)

February 14, 2021 updated by: Jouni Nurmi, MD, Helsinki University Central Hospital

Brain Oxygenation During Prehospital Anesthesia: an Observational Pilot Study

The study will evaluate the feasibility of Nonin SenSmart H500 device to measuring brain oxygenation during prehospital anesthesia of adult patient. The study also estimates the incidence of cerebral hypoxic events of anesthetized patients during prehospital care. The study does not affect the treatment of the patient. The study is pilot study and will be followed with a main study to assess the association between cerebral oxygenation during prehospital care and outcome of the patient.

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.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Critically ill or trauma patients undergoing prehospital anesthesia and endotracheal intubation for any reason by helicopter emergency medical team providing critical care.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • sedation or anesthesia provided to facilitate endotracheal intubation, performed by HEMS team regardless of the reason

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Cardiac arrest at the time of intubation
  • Physical barrier for NIRS measuring (e.g. forehead laceration)
  • HEMS physician does not escort patient to the hospital (and patient is not dead on the scene after inclusion)
  • Workload too high to ensure standard level of clinical care during the study
  • Known special vulnerability including known mental disability (permanent, not related to acute condition), patients in nursing homes, prisoners and forensic psychiatric patients.
  • Known or evident pregnancy

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
Disturbance-free time of the total monitoring time
Time Frame: Prehospital phase
Proportion of time with readable monitor signal of the total time monitor connected to the patient
Prehospital phase
Cerebral desaturation events
Time Frame: During prehospital phase after induction of anesthesia
Number of patients with forehead regional oxygen saturation ≤50% for ≥5 minutes
During prehospital phase after induction of 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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
On-scene time
Time Frame: Prehospital phase
Time from arrival of helicopter emergency medical services unit on the patient to beginning of transportation
Prehospital phase
Qualitative feedback from HEMS crews
Time Frame: Prehospital phase
Comments on the usability of the study device
Prehospital phase
Survival
Time Frame: 30 days, 12 months
Data from population registry center

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 20, 2019

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
