About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Study Comparing Regional Anesthetic Blocks and Periarticular Infiltration for the Management of Post-operative Pain After Direct Anterior Total Hip Replacement

To compare two methods of post-operative pain management in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. There is a perception that the periarticular injections may not be as effective in controlling post-operative pain.

Both methods are current standard of care. The investigators want to compare the outcomes of each when patients are randomized to one of the methods compared to the other method of post-operative pain control.

Being tested
L2 paravertebral block, periarticular injection group

Joint Diseases

What participants receive

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

  • L2 paravertebral blockOther

    nerve block group will receive preoperatively a L2 paravertebral block with indwelling catheter

  • periarticular injection groupOther

    periarticular injection group will receive the injection cocktail towards the end of the total hip replacement prior to skin closure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing L2 paravertebral block and periarticular injection group in people with Degenerative Joint Disease, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2016. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: PI left the institution.). 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?

Changes in pain score (time frame: post-operative to 7 days). 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 16 Nov 2016.
