General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To explore and compare possible the de novo neuroplastic changes (visualised by magnetic resonnance imaging (MRI)) induced by anaesthesia with a volatile agent (sevoflurane) and total intravenous anaesthesia (propofol) respectively.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Any condition (or history thereof) that could cause or be suspected to cause contraindications for general anaesthesia or magnetic resonance imaging led to non-inclusion or exclusion from the trial. Participants could withdraw from participation at any time without having to state a reason for cessation of participation. The participants could contact the principal investigator directly by phone call, text message or e-mail, and were encouraged to do so in case of any question or concern at any time throughout their participation. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were revisited with the participants before each session in the study, and informed consent was reconfirmed before intervention (general anaesthesia). The comfort and safety of the participants were first priority in all aspects of this trial.

Overall trial period

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reporting group description |
23 subjects were included and proceeded to randomisation. After randomisation, two subjects were excluded due to protocol violation, and one subject withdrew from further participation after completing one arm (propofol). Thus, results from 21 subjects were included in further analysis from the propofol arm, while data from 20 subjects are included in the analysis from the sevoflurane arm, and two subjects appear at baseline while their data could not be used for further analysis. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Notes [1] - There are no non-serious adverse events recorded for these results. It is expected that there will be at least one non-serious adverse event reported. Justification: The intervention consists of general anaesthesia will well-known medications that have been in use for decades for this purpose: sevoflurane and propofol. No adverse events were reported. |
