Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sevoflurane Concentrations in Children (NCT NCT06510803)

NCT ID: NCT06510803

Last Updated: 2026-02-13

Results Overview

We will measure the inspired and expired sevoflurane concentrations using an agent monitor, determine the ratio for each patient during each measurement at 30 seconds for the first 5 minutes of induction and and then every minute until the IV is secured. Data are reported as means and standard deviations at each of the time points and represented in a figure.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From 0 to 10 minutes of induction of anesthesia

Population: Table of the inspired to expired sevoflurane concentration ratios for the GE Ohmeda and Drager Apollo workstations during the first 10 minutes. Analysis was by two-factor repeated measures ANOVA and the Sidak test for multiple comparisons.

We will measure the inspired and expired sevoflurane concentrations using an agent monitor, determine the ratio for each patient during each measurement at 30 seconds for the first 5 minutes of induction and and then every minute until the IV is secured. Data are reported as means and standard deviations at each of the time points and represented in a figure.
