Efficacy of iv Fentanyl Citrate Administered Oral as a Pediatric

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

evaluate the efficacy of the intravenous formulation of fentanyl citrate administered orally as a sedative premedication, we will compare it with oral midazolam, as a gold standard premedication, in paediatric congenital cardiac surgeries

Clinical Trial Description

In this double-blinded randomized controlled study, after approval by the local ethics committee, paediatric patients, aged 1 to 7 years, scheduled for elective surgical procedures for correction of congenital heart disease will be enrolled. Patients with hepatic or renal disorders, gastrointestinal tract disorders or malformation, conduction disorders, coronary artery disease, emergency operations, mental disabilities, and known reactions to the drugs to be used will be excluded. After assessing the patient for anaesthesia, informed consent of patients about study and anaesthesia will be obtained.Children will be kept off solid food for 6 hours and of clear fluids for 2 hours. The premedication will be administered orally mixed with equal volume of 5% dextrose and using a 5-ml syringe, 30 minutes before admission to operating room by a member of the nursing staff unaware of the group allocation, in the preoperative holding area, in the presence of one parent. A randomized block design will be used for allocation of patients into two groups (50 patients each); one group of patients will receive midazolam (Group M) and the other will receive fentanyl (Group F) as a sedative premedication. 1. Group M: patients will be premedicated with the undiluted IV formulation of Midazolam (5 mg/mL), 0.5 mg/kg up to 15 mg per patient. The dose is chosen to be similar to the dose of midazolam used in other previous studies (). 2. Group F: patients will be premedicated with the undiluted IV formulation of fentanyl citrate (50 µg/mL), 10 µg/kg up to 400 µg per patient. The dose is chosen to be similar to the dose of OTFC used in other previous studies ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
