  • Patient has chronic hyperglycemia, either a fasting glycemia > 1.26 g/l (7mmol/l) for longer than 5 years and receiving an oral, well-adjusted (last HBA1c < 6.5%)), non-insulin, antidiabetic treatment
  • Patient without metabolic or neurologic disease, with creating clearance > 90ml/min

Who cannot join

Being tested
Truncal block
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Truncal blockProcedure or surgery

    Patients will have a truncal block during hand or wrist surgery.

Study groups in NCT01323075
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Renal insufficiency groupPatients in this group have renal insufficiency as defined by a creatinine clearance of < 30 ml/min without dialysis. These patients do not have diabetes.
Receives: Procedure: Truncal block
Diabetic groupThese patients have diabetes, but not renal insufficiency.
Receives: Procedure: Truncal block
Non-exposed groupThese patients have neither a neurological nor a metabolic disease and a creatine clearance of > 90 ml/min
Receives: Procedure: Truncal block

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The duration of sensory block in minutes.

    The duration of the sensory block in minutes. The beginning of this term is defined by the end of the axillary block (last injection), and the end of this period is defined by the reappearance of sensitivity to touch in the area anesthetized.

    Measured: Day 0 (per-op)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Time necessary for completion of axillary blocks (1 / 3 upper humerus)(min)

    Measured: Day 0 (per-op)

  2. Time necessary for installing sensory and motor block (min)

    Time necessary for installing sensory and motor block (min): defined by the delay between the end of the block injection and the occurrence of insensitivity of blocked territories

    Measured: Day 0 (per-op)

  3. Failure of the block: yes / no

    Failure of the block: yes / no: defined by an absence of sensory block

    Measured: Day 0 (per-op)

  4. Presence of paresthesia: yes / no

    Measured: Day 0 (per-op)

  5. Occurrence of neurological complications, yes/no

    Neurological: occurrence of complications (paresthesia, paralysis, paresis ....) that persist (or not) until the final postoperative evaluation

    Measured: Day 0 (post-op)

  6. Occurrence of neurological complications, yes/no

    Occurrence of neurological complications (paresthesia, paralysis, paresis ....)

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Insufficiency and Diabetes, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes at 3 sites 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 3 inclusion and 14 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 17 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

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?

The duration of sensory block in minutes. (time frame: Day 0 (per-op)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01323075, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Nov 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
