Trial summary

Dipyrone is suggested to inhibit the platelet aggregation comparable to th effect of traditional analgetic substances like Ibuprofen. To verify this hypothesis the investigators conducted the study in comparing patients undergoing traumatologic, visceral or plastic surgical procedures. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of the Effect of Dipyrone, Ibuprofen, Paracetamol and Parecoxib on the Platelet Aggregation

Dipyrone is suggested to inhibit the platelet aggregation comparable to th effect of traditional analgetic substances like Ibuprofen. To verify this hypothesis the investigators conducted the study in comparing patients undergoing traumatologic, visceral or plastic surgical procedures. The investigators randomized them to four groups receiving common analgetic doses of either dipyrone, acetaminophen (paracetamol) or valdecoxib/parecoxib. The investigators took blood samples before initiation of the study drug, 1h, 4hs and 24hs after first intake. The investigators compared the aggregation via aggregometry of platelet rich plasma.

Being tested
dipyrone, Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen, Parecoxib/Valdecoxib, Blood samples
Keywords
dipyrone, platelet aggregation, neuraxial blockage, ibuprofen, platelet aggregation under dipyrone compared to ibuprofen, acetaminophen and parecoxib/valdecoxib, neuraxial blockage in patients receiving ibuprofen is critical in special circumstances, but traditionally not fpr dipyrone

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • dipyroneDrug

    Dipyrone is given in the operation room with 2,5 g intravenously, followed by an oral regime of 4x1g on the ward

  • IbuprofenDrug

    Ibuprofen is given orally 600mg in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit, followed by an oral regime of 800mg twice a day

  • AcetaminophenDrug

    Acetaminophen is given 1g intravenously in the Operation room, followed by an oral regime of 1g fourth a day

  • AcetaminophenDrug

    Acetaminophen is given 1g intravenously in the operation room, followed by 1g orally fourth a day

  • Parecoxib/ValdecoxibDrug

    40mg Parecoxib are given intravenously in the operation room, followed by 40mg of Valdecoxib orally twice a day

  • Blood samplesOther

    Blood samples for aggregometry are taken before induction of anesthesia, 1h after first drug intake, 4hs and 24hs after first intake

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dipyrone, Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen in people with Platelet Aggregation, run by Ruhr University of Bochum at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2008. 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 Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Percentage of aggregation in platelet rich plasma fter 24 hours of treatment with analgetic doses (time frame: 24 hours). 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 1 Oct 2008.
