About this study

Official title: Comparison of Axillary Block Under Ultrasound With 40 or 25 ml of Xylocaine 1.5% Adrenalin in Forearm or Arm Surgery.

Hospitalized patients for superior member surgery have different types of anesthesia.Forearm and/or arm surgery could be done under general anesthesia, but in the most of the cases, this surgery was done under locoregional anesthesia.Several injections of local anesthesia at the nerves axilla are used with the used of ultrasonography.

The purpose of this study is to show that the anesthesia efficiency is the same with 40 or 25 ml of Xylocaine 1.5% Adrenalin in Forearm or Arm Surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Xylocaine in people with Forearm and Arm Surgery, run by University Hospital, Brest 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 5 inclusion and 10 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 21 Dec 2011. 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. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 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?

Axillary block efficiency conducted by ultrasound (time frame: 48 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 21 Dec 2011.
