Efficacy and Safety Study of Two Propofol Formulations

February 22, 2008 updated by: B. Braun Melsungen AG

A Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Positive Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Propofol(Propofol®-Lipuro) in Total Intravenous Anaesthesia

The purpose of the study to compare Propofol-MCT/LCT with LCT in terms of their efficacy and safety during total intravenous anaesthesia

Detailed Description

Propofol (chemical substance 2, 6-Diisopropylphenol) is a short-acting intravenous general anaesthetic which is used for induction and maintenance of a general anaesthesia, for long-term sedation of ventilated intensive care patients or for short-term sedation in diagnostic and surgical procedures. As an active substance propofol produces good and readily controlled anaesthesia with smooth and problem-free recovery both in adult patients and in children over 1 month of age. One potential advantage of this formulation is that the MCT/LCT-emulsion reduces pain on injection, a frequently reported adverse reaction with LCT-emulsions of propofol.
