Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This trial compares two standard anesthesia methods—inhaled sevoflurane versus intravenous propofol—during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The goal is to see which one gives surgeons a clearer view inside the shoulder joint, which is important for safety and success. About 110 adults having elective shoulder surgery will take part, and their surgical videos will be blindly scored for visibility.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
sevoflurane and propofol
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that one anesthesia method is better for shoulder surgery, leading to clearer views and safer procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 110 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The difference between the two methods might be small or not clinically meaningful.

Study facts

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

About 110 people

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patient aged 18 or over 2. Patient scheduled for elective rotator cuff repair arthroscopy (RCRA), performed in the "beach-chair" position under general anesthesia combined with an interscalene block (with or without standard associated procedures such as acromioplasty and/or tenotomy/tenodesis of the long biceps). Procedures for instability (Bankart/Latarjet), fractures, capsulitis, simple lavage, or any arthroscopy not focused on rotator cuff repair (RCR) are not eligible. 3. Patient with an ASA score of I to IV 4. Patient affiliated to a social security scheme, 5. Patient having given written consent following written and oral information. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with a contraindication to any of the study agents, including known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of these agents or to any of their excipients. 2. Patients with known coagulopathy (abnormal PT/INR; platelets \< 100,000/L) or 3. Patients with active preoperative hemarthrosis or local infection. 4. Non-elective (emergency) surgery or a procedure whose initial objective is not rotator cuff repair arthroscopy (RCRA). Note: Intraoperative conversion to open surgery is not an exclusion criterion; it will be considered an intraoperative event and managed in the analysis according to the intention-to-treat (ITT) principle, with a sensitivity analysis procedure described in the statistical plan. 5. Uncooperative patient, inability to consent 6. Pregnant women 7. Patient protected by law under guardianship or curatorship, or unable to participate in a clinical study under article L. 1121-16 of the French Public Health Code.
