Trial summary

Healthy subjects should assess pain on a numerical scale (EN), during painful skin stimuli of variable intensity delivered by a CO2 laser used at the power of 0.3 W, known for its safety. ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) will be raised simultaneously. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of the ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) Validity on the Nociception Assessment in Healthy Volunteers in State of Hypnosis, Compared to Painful Numerical Verbal Scale (EVN).

Healthy subjects should assess pain on a numerical scale (EN), during painful skin stimuli of variable intensity delivered by a CO2 laser used at the power of 0.3 W, known for its safety. ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) will be raised simultaneously. This sequence will be made on subjects at rest and in a state of hypnosis using the technique of "remembering a pleasant memory" and the ideo-sensory technique of "protective glove".

The average value of the ANI will be compared to the value of the EVN of pain intensity.

What participants receive

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

  • CO2 laser and ANI monitorDevice

    Painful skin stimuli of variable intensity will be delivered by a CO2 laser used at the power of 0.3 W for each stimulation (6/phases) and this for each of the 3 phases (critical consciousness or hypnosis). During each stimulation, ANI values will be identified by the Physiodoloris ® monitor, through 3 standard ECG electrodes placed on the thorax of the subject.

Study groups in NCT02302313
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
painful stimuliOtherNo drug and no placebo will be used in this study. The study participants will only rate their pain on a numerical scale (EN) following cutaneous painful stimulation (6 for each phase) of variable intensity, delivered by a CO2 laser. ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) will be raised simultaneously by the ANI monitor. This sequence will be performed on subjects at rest and in a state of hypnosis by the technique of "remembering a pleasant memory" and the ideo-sensory technique of "protective glove".
Receives: Device: CO2 laser and ANI monitor

What is being measured

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

  1. EVN value of pain intensity versus average value of the ANI

    ANI value (0 to 100, without unit of measure) recorded continuously for 60 seconds after the painful stimulation compared to the EVN value of the pain intensity, from zero to ten (numerical verval scale), and this for each of 6 painful stimuli intensities of each three consecutive phases of the study.

    Measured: ANI average value : measured continuously for 60 seconds after the painful stimulation. EVN value : raised a few seconds after the painful stimulation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. EVN value of the arduousness of pain perception versus ANI value

    EVN value of the arduousness of pain perception, from zéro to ten, for a stimulation intensity, depending on the phase of the study, compared to the ANI.

    Measured: ANI average value : measured continuously for 60 seconds after the painful stimulation. EVN value : raised a few seconds after the painful stimulation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CO2 laser and ANI monitor in people with Healthy, run by University Hospital, Brest at 1 site 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 3 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 9 Jan 2018. 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 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. 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?

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?

EVN value of pain intensity versus average value of the ANI (time frame: ANI average value : measured continuously for 60 seconds after the painful stimulation. EVN value : raised a few seconds after the painful stimulation). 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 9 Jan 2018.
