About this study

Can a nurse-based, anesthesiologist-supervised model reduce prevalence of postoperative pain in pediatric patients?

Read the detailed description

Comparison of 2 treatment model in reducing prevalence of postoperative pain in pediatric patients:

Conventional model(C): Nurses give fixed-dose analgesic according to surgeons' prescription Study model(S): Nurses give initial-dose analgesic according to surgeons' prescription. In case of inadequate pain relief, another half of initial dose will be given twice at 15-min interval and acute pain service will be consulted if there is still pain.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing model of health care service in people with Postoperative Pain and Satisfaction, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 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 Thailand. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

prevalence of patients with moderate to severe pain more than once in first postoperative day (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 29 Mar 2011.
