About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Ketamine and Multi-modal Analgesics for Postoperative Analgesia, Opioid Sparing, and Early Extubation in ICU Compared With Conventional Analgesia

The purpose of this research study is to see if pain can be better controlled with fewer side effects. The new drug regimen will study several different medicines that have different ways of treating pain.

Read the detailed description

The investigators plan to study an analgesic regimen of Ketamine and Lidocaine as infusions with Neurontin and acetaminophen delivered orally for postoperative analgesia and the subsequent effect on ventilator days and ICU stay. The investigators expect that pain scores will be either unchanged or better than historic controls. In addition, the investigators expect that ventilator days and ICU stay will be improved due to reduced incidence of delirium and bowel dysfunction.

What participants receive

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

  • KetamineDrug

    Also called Ketalar

    Receive an analgesic regimen that involves Ketamine infusions

  • LidocaineDrug

    Also called Lidopen

    Receive an analgesic regimen that involves Lidocaine infusions

  • AcetaminophenDrug

    Also called Tylenol

    May be administered Acetaminophen rectally, by mouth, or intravenously in patients not suitable for either of the other methods of administration

  • NeurontinDrug

    Also called Gabapentin

    May be given Neurontin by mouth as an approved medication for pain control

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pain, run by University of Florida.

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 3 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2019. 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. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Changes between the two groups assessed by overall ventilator days (time frame: Through study completion, an average of one week). 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 31 Jul 2019.
