Trial Review

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The partial pressure cascade for sevoflurane and desflurane will be measured in patients undergoing inhalational general anaesthesia for cardiac surgery. Measurements of inspired, end-tidal, arterial and mixed venous partial pressure of anaesthetic agent and oxygen and CO2 will be made at one time point during the pre-cardiopulmonary bypass phase. Calculation of pulmonary deadspace and shunt will be done as indices of ventilation perfusion scatter in all patients. In a further group of 10 patients ventilation perfusion scatter will be formally quantified uisng the mIGET.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 302566 0
The Alveolar deadspace fraction for the anaesthetic agents will be measured from the alveolar-arterial gradient via the Bohr-Enghoff equation, and compared to that calculated in the traditional way using simultaneous PCO2 measurements.
Timepoint [1] 302566 0
60 minutes post induction of anaesthesia or the nearest point where stability of cardiovascular and measured variables is maintained for at least 5 minutes.
Secondary outcome [1] 336377 0
Relationship of A-a differences and pulmonary deadspace to V/Q scatter measured using the MIGET
Timepoint [1] 336377 0
60 minutes post induction of anaesthesia or the nearest point where stability of cardiovascular and measured variables is maintained for at least 5 minutes.
