What is being measured

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

  1. number of analgesic request

    time to first analgesic request is taken as duration of effective analgesia

    number of analgesic request in first 24 hours were also counted

    Measured: 24 hour

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. VAS score

    Visual analogue scale is a linear 10cm scale with 0 corresponding to no pain and 10 to worst pain ever

    Measured: first complaint of pain, 6 hrs, 12 hrs, 24 hrs

  2. nausea and vomiting

    Measured: 24 hrs

  3. respiratory rate

    Measured: 24 hrs

  4. sedation

    Measured: 24hrs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing intraperitoneal nebulisation of magnesium sulphate in people with Postoperative Pain, run by B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences at 1 site in Nepal.

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 1 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 2 Mar 2012. 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 Nepal. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Contact Sujata Niroula, MD (00977-9842108624, drsujataniroula@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

number of analgesic request (time frame: 24 hour). 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 NCT01542697, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 2 Mar 2012.
