Trial Outcomes & Findings for Implications of Anesthetics on Sleep Consolidation (NCT NCT04329091)

NCT ID: NCT04329091

Last Updated: 2023-02-24

Results Overview

Subjects are tested in the morning for word recognition on hard-to-understand speech, then trained on this speech (never hearing the same words twice) which produces about 20 percentage points of improvement. After sedation subjects are re-tested. During the morning, afternoon and evening post-tests, subjects will be tested on new spoken words. At each time point where the perceptual learning protocol is administered the number of words correctly perceived out of 50 will be measured.

Measure
Dexmedetomidine Arm
Dexmedetomidine: Administration of a 0.5 mcg/kg bolus followed by an infusion of 0.5-0.7 mcg/kg/hr, titrated up by 0.1 mcg every 1 minute until the subject spontaneously closes his or her eyes. When the subject spontaneously closes his or her eyes the infusion continues for 90 minutes from that point. Dexmedetomidine: All subjects will receive Dexmedetomidine to induce sedation between their pre-sedation and post-sedation perceptual learning tests.
