Trial summary

This study is being undertaken to compare the pain control using either bupivacaine versus liposomal bupivacaine. Liposomal bupivacaine can potentially provide pain relief lasting up to 72 hours while regular bupivacaine can provide pain relief up to 12 hours Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Bupivacaine to Liposomal Bupivacaine for Ultrasound Guided Periarticular Hip Infiltration for Postoperative Analgesia After Hip Arthroscopy.

This study is being undertaken to compare the pain control using either bupivacaine versus liposomal bupivacaine. Liposomal bupivacaine can potentially provide pain relief lasting up to 72 hours while regular bupivacaine can provide pain relief up to 12 hours

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy experience moderate to severe postoperative pain. Effective pain control after surgery is an important component in the overall management of these patients. Good pain control encourages early participation in rehabilitation program, increases success of the surgery, and improves patient satisfaction. Typically, postoperative analgesia is provided to these patients either with nerve blocks or opioid medications. Both these methods provide good pain relief but nerve blocks are associated with weakness of lower extremity muscles which interferes with early ambulation and increase the risk of falls while narcotic medications increase the risk of nausea, vomiting, itching, constipation, ileus, urinary retention, sedation and respiratory depression.

What is being measured

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

  1. Opioid Consumption (Mean Number of 5mg Oxycontin Tablets Consumed)

    Consumption of 5mg Oxycontin tablets will be assessed on Post Operative Days 1, 2 \& 3.

    Measured: Post Operative Day 1, 2 & 3

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pain Scores

    Analysis of pain scores (at rest and ambulation) during hospital stay. Measured on a 10 point pain scale (1 being no pain and 10 being worst pain imaginable)

    Measured: Post Operative Day 1, 2 & 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing liposomal bupivacaine and Bupivacaine in people with Hip Injuries, run by Trinity Health Of New England at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Jul 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Opioid Consumption (Mean Number of 5mg Oxycontin Tablets Consumed) (time frame: Post Operative Day 1, 2 & 3). 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 16 Aug 2022.
