About this study

Official title: Randomized Double-blind Placebo-controlled Trial: Administration of Morphine-Placebo vs. Morphine-Midazolam in Pre-hospital Traumatic Patients With Severe Acute Pain.

Administration of midazolam with morphine in patients with severe acute pain is a routine practice in the management of pre- and post-operative patients but has not been evaluated in pre-hospital setting. The investigators aim to evaluate the co-analgesic effect of midazolam in the pre-hospital management of traumatic patients with severe acute pain.

In a multicenter prospective randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial, the investigators would like to compare the analgesic effect and safety of the intravenous morphine 0.10 mg/kg and midazolam 0.04 mg/kg with the intravenous morphine 0.10 mg/kg and placebo in pre-hospital traumatic adults. Assessment will be done at the baseline using a validated numeric rating scale (NRS).

The primary outcome will be the proportion of patients with a pain score less than or equal to 3 after 20 minutes. The secondary outcomes will be in between-group comparison of: the treatment safety, pain score every 5 minutes during 30 minutes and the total morphine dose required until obtaining a pain score less than or equal to 3.

Read the detailed description

Patient will be included in pre-hospital setting. They must have an acute pain NRS greater than or equal to 6 from a traumatic origin. The participation of the study for each patient will be the time of the pre-hospital setting. The study will stop when the patient arrives at the hospital.

Patient will be randomized after obtaining an informed consent. Then, the nurse will administered intravenous morphine 0.10 mg/kg and midazolam 0.04 mg/kg or intravenous morphine 0.10 mg/kg and placebo.

Only the nurse will be aware of the treatment received by the patient. Every 5 minutes, life constants and pain score will be recorded on the case report form.

Assessment will be done at the baseline using a validated numeric rating scale. The primary outcome will be the proportion of patients with a pain score less than or equal to 3 after 20 minutes. The secondary outcomes will be in between-group comparison of: the treatment safety, pain score every 5 minutes during 30 minutes and the total morphine dose required until obtaining a pain score less than or equal to 3.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain score

    The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with a pain score less than or equal to 3 after 20 minutes

    Measured: 20 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. pain evolution

    The secondary outcomes were in between-group comparison of:

    • pain score every 5 minutes during 30 minutes

    Measured: every 5 minutes and at the end of the study

  2. Safety

    The secondary outcomes were in between-group comparison of:

    • The treatment safety

    Measured: during all the study

  3. Morphine total dose

    The secondary outcomes were in between-group comparison of:

    • The total morphine dose required until obtaining pain score less than or equal to 3

    Measured: During all the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Midazolam in people with Acute Traumatic Pain, run by Centre Hospitalier de Cornouaille at 4 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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. 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 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?

Pain score (time frame: 20 minutes). 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 NCT01731184, 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 21 Nov 2012.
