About this study

Official title: Does Patient-Controlled Infraclavicular Perineural Dexmedetomidine Improve Postoperative Analgesia Deadline?

Infraclavicular block is one of the peripheral nerve block used in upper extremity surgery. Adjuvant agents are used in peripheral nerve blocks to increase the duration and block quality. We investigated that the effects of patient-controlled perineural dexmedetomidine application on postoperative analgesia.

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?

visual analog scale (time frame: 3 month). 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 NCT02550782, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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?
