The Influence of Sedation and General Anesthesia to Patients' Psycho-emotional State Undergoing Wisdom Teeth Extraction

May 9, 2022 updated by: Inesa Astramskaitė
The aim of the study is to evaluate, wheather the sedation or general anesthesia in third molar extractions influence the patient's psycho-emotional status. It is believed that the type of anesthesia may influence not only the psycho-emotional status after the procedure, but also before the procedure.

Study Overview

Status

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.

Detailed Description

A prospective pilot study was conducted on adult patients who were admitted to the Faculty of Surgery at LSMU KK hospital for removal of all four wisdom teeth with sedation or general anesthesia. The patients were given one day to complete the given questionnaires. They were asked to complete three questionnaires: a) before the surgery, i.e. at the time the patient was hospitalized; b) the same day prior to surgery; c) ten days after the surgery. The operating doctor also filled out a questionnaire ten days after the surgery.

It is believed that the type of anesthesia may influence not only the psycho-emotional status after the procedure, but also before the procedure.

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.
Concious sedation
Patients undergoing third molars extraction under concious sedation. The patient is fully familiarized with the sedation procedure. The anesthesiologist suppresses the patient's consciousness with the help of intravenous medication;
Procedure: Third molars extraction
Third molars extractions with concious sedation or general anesthesia
Full anesthesia
Patients undergoing third molars extraction under full anesthesia. . The patient is fully acquainted with the procedure of general anesthesia. It is a controlled state of unconsciousness when protective reflexes disappear, the patient cannot breathe and does not respond to verbal commands. A special intubation tube is introduced into the airways.

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
Anesthesia effect on patients pre-operative psycho-emotional status: questionnaire
Time Frame: baseline, pre-intervention/procedure/surgery
Anesthesia effect on patients pre-operative psycho-emotional status. The following scales are used: Universal Scale in Oral Surgery for psycho-emotional rating (1-3 raiting with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); Modified Corah's Dental Anxiety Questionnaire (1-5 scores with with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); visual analogue scales on fear of tooth extraction and fear of general anesthesia (1-5 scores with higher rating meaning higher fear)
baseline, pre-intervention/procedure/surgery
Anesthesia effect on patients pre-operative psycho-emotional status: questionnaire
Time Frame: immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery
Anesthesia effect on patients pre-operative psycho-emotional status. The following scales are used: Universal Scale in Oral Surgery for psycho-emotional rating (1-3 raiting with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); Modified Corah's Dental Anxiety Questionnaire (1-5 scores with with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); visual analogue scales on fear of tooth extraction and fear of general anesthesia (1-5 scores with higher rating meaning higher fear)
immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery
Anesthesia effect on patients post-operative psycho-emotional status: questionnaire
Time Frame: 10 days after after the intervention/procedure/surgery
Anesthesia effect on patients post-operative psycho-emotional status. The following scales are used: Universal Scale in Oral Surgery for psycho-emotional rating (1-3 raiting with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); Modified Corah's Dental Anxiety Questionnaire (1-5 scores with with higher rating meaning more negative psycho-emotional status); visual analogue scales on fear of tooth extraction and fear of general anesthesia (1-5 scores with higher rating meaning higher fear). Also the pain that was felt immediately after the procedure, 6 hours after the procedure, 24 hours after the procedure, 2-10 days after the procedure was evaluated. The linear scale of 10cm was used, where the less points ment lower pain. Patient had to point the vertical dash on a line to represent the pain
10 days after after the intervention/procedure/surgery
