About this study

Official title: Comparison Study of Analgesic Effects for Dexmedetomidine-fentanyl vs Dexmedetomidine-ketamine in Femur Proximal Fracture Patients

  • Comparison study of analgesic effects for dexmedetomidine-fentanyl vs dexmedetomidine-ketamine
  • lateral position for spinal anesthesia in femur proximal fracture patients
Read the detailed description
  • Dexmedetomidine (1mcg/kg)- fentanyl (1mcg/kg) vs dexmedetomidine (1mcg/kg) - ketamine (1mg/kg) 10 minutes loading.
  • After 10 minutes of drug infusion, patients are prepared for spinal anesthesia.
  • pain scale and quality of patient positioning are measured three times (lateral position, chest-knee position, intrathecal local anesthetics injection)
  • When patients have severe pain during intraoperative period, fentanyl 50 mcg will be intravenously inject.
  • Patients will be injected propofol 10mg when they have agitation signs during operation.
  • vital signs, bispectral index, korean version of mini mental status examination, verbal rating scale,fentany/propofol consumption, frequency of intrathecal injection

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain Score Using Five Scales

    We want to compare pain score (five scales; 0=calm, 1=facial grimacing, 2=moaning, 3=screaming, 4=restlessness or agitation, unable to proceed) when patients are lateral position during spinal anesthesia.

    Measured: average 10-20 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of Patient Positioning

    We estimate quality of patient positioning (0=not satisfactory, 1=satisfactory, 2=good, 3=optimal) during spinal anesthesia between two groups.

    Measured: average 10-20 minutes during spinal anesthesia

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 Using Five Scales (time frame: average 10-20 minutes). 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.
