NCT00970762	Comparative Study of Rocuronium With Vecuronium (Study 71101)(COMPLETED)	Completed	Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.	Phase 3	This study was conducted to determine and compare the safety and effectiveness of two neuromuscular blockers (rocuronium and vecuronium) at various doses in adults who are undergoing general elective surgery with sevoflurane anesthesia. Study participants received an intubating dose of a neuromuscular blocker (to enable insertion of a tube through the nose or mouth into the trachea to provide artificial ventilation). The intubating dose was followed by repeated bolus maintenance doses as needed, to maintain muscle relaxation. The time it takes to reach maximal effect of the neuromuscular blocker (onset time) after the intubating dose was measured and compared as the primary outcome.
NCT01116713	Effect of Dexamethasone in Postoperative Symptoms After Mastectomy for Breast Cancer	Completed	Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social	Phase 3	Postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting (PONV) are the most common complications after anesthesia and surgery. Women undergoing mastectomy with axillary dissection are at a particularly high risk for the development of PONV and an incidence of 60-80% in patients receiving no antiemetic has been reported. Emetic episodes predispose to aspiration of gastric contents, wound dehiscence, psychological distress, and delayed recovery and discharge times. These justify the use of prophylactic antiemetics in women scheduled for mastectomy. Most of the currently used antiemetics, including antihistamines, butyrophenones and dopamine receptor antagonists have been reported to cause occasional undesirable adverse effects, such as excessive sedation, hypotension, dry mouth, dysphoria, hallucinations and extrapyramidal signs. Antiserotonins (e.g., ondansetron) are available for the prevention and treatment of PONV in patients undergoing various types of surgery [4]. However, the use of prophylactic antiemetic therapy with antiserotonins has been criticized for being too expensive. Dexamethasone was first reported to be an effective antiemetic regimen in patients receiving cancer chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of dexamethasone treatment for reducing pain and PONV as well as analgesic and antiemetic requirements in women undergoing general anesthesia for mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection.
NCT02599168	Effect of Dexmedetomidine on Propofol Requirement During Anesthesia	Recruiting	Dr Nitin Sethi	Phase 4	Dexmedetomidine, a selective alpha-2 agonist agent used for maintaining sedation in intensive care patients in receipt of mechanical ventilation, is being increasingly utilized in anaesthesia practice for facilitating anaesthesia depth as an adjunct to base anaesthetics (intravenous; propofol: inhalational; sevoflurane, desflurane). The investigators intend to assess the anaesthetic potential of dexmedetomidine in controlled anaesthesia settings empowered by the use of an objective, patient response based, safe, efficient, and patented closed loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS). CLADS functions on control of processed EEG response parameter captured from anaesthetized patients with the help of a BIS- monitor, which is continuously fed into a automated drug infusion pump. The infusion pump then accordingly delivers the anaesthetic drug to the patients based on pharmacodynamic requirements. If dexmedetomidine has anaesthesia potential then it is likely that propofol use delivered by CLADS can be reduced further. In addition the effect of two drugs (viz, base agent-propofol plus adjunct agent-dexmedetomidine) on different receptor site within the brain would help gain greater anaesthetic depth consistency as well as a lower incidence of intraoperative patient awareness. This prospective randomized two-arm study aims to assess effect of the use of dexmedetomidine on propofol requirements (primary objective), anaesthesia depth consistency, and intraoperative patient awareness (secondary objectives).
NCT02825056	Postoperative Hemodynamics Comparison After High Spinal Block With or Without Intrathecal Morphine.	Not yet recruiting	Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research	Phase 0	There is paucity of literature on the effects of intrathecal morphine on the postoperative hemodynamics in the cardiac-surgical patients.We planned this study to compare the post-operative hemodynamic effects (particularly the incidence of vasoplegia in the two study groups) and outcome of combined general anesthesia + high spinal block, with or without intrathecal morphine in patients undergoing cardiac-surgical procedures in our set up.
NCT03013075	General Plus Spinal Anesthesia and General Anesthesia Alone on Right Ventricular Function	Recruiting	Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research	Phase 4	The investigator hypothesize that High Spinal Anesthesia (HSA) by its effect on attenuation of stress response, decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance, myocardial protection and positive myocardial oxygen balance will cause improvement in right ventricular function. So far there is no study that has evaluated the effect of HSA anesthesia on the right ventricular function, hence the investigator planned this study to compare the effect of HSA on the right ventricular function in patients with mitral valve disease with severe pulmonary hypertension planned for mitral valve replacement surgery.
NCT03219294	Does Deep Neuromuscular Blockade Improve Operating Conditions During Total Hip Replacements?	Completed	Maine Medical Center	Phase 4	During many surgeries, increased muscle tension makes it harder for the surgeon to expose the site of surgery and work within the incision. Neuromuscular blockade (NMB) drugs such as Vecuronium bind to neurotransmitter (acetyl choline) receptors at the neuromuscular junction, blocking their action and producing muscle relaxation. This muscle relaxation allows easier retraction of muscle tissues and manipulation of structures in the wound. Improved surgical conditions are likely to result in improved patient outcomes. While increased depths of NMB have been shown to optimize surgical conditions during intra-abdominal and retroperitoneal procedures, the impact of NMB depth has not been reported for orthopedic surgeries.1 To address this, we propose to study the effect of NMB depth on surgical conditions during total hip replacement (THR).
