Trial summary

Continuous bupivacaine administration through an elastomeric pump (Pain Buster) has been found effective for post operative analgesia in a large range of surgery. Ropivacaine is a less toxic drug, never tested in the surgery of latissimus dorsi and serratus micro anastomotic flaps (from the investigators knowledge). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Interest of Continuous Ropivacaine Administration Through an Elastomeric Pump (Pain Buster ) for the Surgery of Latissimus Dorsi and Serratus Micro Anastomotic Flaps

Continuous bupivacaine administration through an elastomeric pump (Pain Buster) has been found effective for post operative analgesia in a large range of surgery. Ropivacaine is a less toxic drug, never tested in the surgery of latissimus dorsi and serratus micro anastomotic flaps (from the investigators knowledge). The aim of the study is to evaluate the usefulness of this drug and device for post operative analgesia, associated with patient controlled analgesia with morphine. For this purpose a controlled randomized double blind trial against placebo (saline) is performed, enrolling 40 (20x2) patients during 3 years, in order to measure total morphine consumption during the first 48 post operative hours and to evaluate analgesia and sides effects of morphine in each group.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Naropeine (Ropivacaine) in people with Post Operative Analgesia, run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total morphine consumption (time frame: H 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Feb 2013.
