Impact of Perinatal Anaesthesia & Analgesia on Neurocognitive Outcomes in

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to determine the impact of perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia on neurocognitive outcomes in early childhood by analyzing neurocognitive data already obtained from the local prospective observational cohort study: Growing up in Singapore Towards Healthy Outcomes (GUSTO).

We hypothesize that:

1. Perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia is associated with poorer neurocognitive outcomes at 6, 18, 24 and 36 months.

2. Maternal anxiety and depression during the antenatal and post-partum period is associated with poorer neurocognitive outcomes at 6, 18 24 and 36 months.

Clinical Trial Description

Early exposure to general anesthesia is associated long-term neurocognitive and behavioral abnormalities. However the impact of obstetric and perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia on long term neurocognitive outcomes in the absence of concurrent events (e.g. fetal hypoxia) is unknown. We aim to determine the impact of perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia on neurocognitive outcomes in early childhood by analyzing information already obtained from the local prospective observational cohort study: Growing up in Singapore Towards Healthy Outcomes (GUSTO). GUSTO is a large prospective cohort trial currently conducted in Singapore examining maternal and neonatal outcomes including metabolic, psychological and developmental outcomes.

Information on infants' neurocognitive outcomes up to 24 months old are already available and we will correlate these outcomes to

1. The infants' perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia, as obtained from hospital records, and

2. Maternal anxiety and depression, as observed from analysis of questionnaires already available from GUSTO.

We hypothesize that:

1. Perinatal exposure to anaesthesia and analgesia is associated with poorer neurocognitive outcomes at 6, 18, 24 and 36 months.

2. Maternal anxiety and depression during the antenatal and post-partum period is associated with poorer neurocognitive outcomes at 6, 18 24 and 36 months. ;

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.
