About this study

Official title: Analgesic Efficacy of Levobupivacaine Administration in Periprosthetic Breast Augmentation With Implants

The purpose of this study is to determine whether levobupivacaine is effective in the acute postoperative pain treatment in periprosthetic breast augmentation

Read the detailed description

One of the most common plastic surgery is breast augmentation using prosthesis ( mammoplasty Surgery with cohesive silicone gel prosthesis insubpectoral plane). Remains challenging management of acute postoperative pain that allows for early discharge of patients. To this end the following objectives are proposed: evaluate the analgesic efficacy of L-Bupivacaine 0.25% vs. Placebo (saline) administered irrigation into the surgical pocket bilaterally intraoperatively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Levobupivacaine in people with Pain, run by General University Hospital of Valencia.

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 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Patient-reported postoperative pain. evaluated by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at rest and movement (cough). (time frame: at 6 hours the early postoperative period (after the end of anesthesia)). 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 20 Jul 2016.
