Trial summary

Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) is a widely used minor surgical procedure for diagnosis and treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. During the procedure, several methods have been proposed to reducing pain including submucosal block, paracervical block, and oral analgesics. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Lidocaine Spray Compared With Submucosal Injection in Reducing Pain During Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) is a widely used minor surgical procedure for diagnosis and treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. During the procedure, several methods have been proposed to reducing pain including submucosal block, paracervical block, and oral analgesics. Submucosal (underneath the lining of the cervix) injection of lidocaine appeared to be the most common methods used. However, from the investigators experience, there is significant pain associated with the injection itself.

Lidocaine spray is an effective measure for pain control during minor gastrointestinal and otolaryngological procedures. It is simple without pain related to application.

An objective of this study is to examine effectiveness of lidocaine spray versus lidocaine submucosal injection by comparing pain scores at various stages of the LEEP procedure.

What participants receive

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

  • Lidocaine sprayProcedure or surgery

    10% lidocaine spray 40 mg applied directly to the cervix, 3 minutes before starting cervical excision

  • Lidocaine submucosal injectionProcedure or surgery

    2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 adrenaline 2 ml injected submucosally into the four quadrant of the cervix, 3 minutes before starting cervical excision

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Visual analog pain scores at the time of anesthetic application

    Measured: At the time of anesthetic application

  2. Visual analog pain scores at 30 minutes after the procedure

    Measured: At 30 minutes after the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lidocaine spray and Lidocaine submucosal injection in people with Uterine Cervical Dysplasia, run by Chiang Mai 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 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 15 Jan 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 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?

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?

Visual analog pain scores immediately after the excision (time frame: Immediately after the excision). 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 NCT01505920, 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 15 Jan 2013.
