About this study
Official title: Efficacy of Pethidine, Ketorolac And Xylocaine Gel As Analgesics For Pain Control In Shockwave Lithotripsy Single Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
A randomised prospective trial comparing the efficacy of pethidine, Ketorolac, and Xylocaine gel as analgesics for pain control in shockwave lithotripsy.
Read the detailed description
Pain perception during shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) is affected by patient-related factors like age, gender, and body habitus moreover, young female patients, anxious and depressed patients or thin patients experience more pain during SWL.
Several physical variables influencing treatment-related pain have been identified: the type of the shockwave source, size, and site of stone burden, peak pressure of the shockwaves, diameter of the focal zone, and size of the aperture of the shockwave source reflecting the area of shockwave entry at the skin.
Pain relief during SWL is vital, not only to maintain patient comfort and satisfaction, but also to facilitate stone imaging and targeting by reducing patients' movements during successive shock wave impacts. Reduced patient movement enables increase fragmentation efficiency and reduce the risk of procedure-related morbidity. So, a relaxed, cooperative patient during treatment is paramount in maintaining stone targeting for optimal fragmentation.
Across 21 centers in the United Kingdom (UK), 17 distinct analgesia regimens were reported in SWL analgesia practice.
In 2016 European Association of Urology (EUA) guidelines for SWL Pain control stated that pain control during SWL is necessary to limit pain induced movements and excessive respiratory excursions, However no recommendation for proper analgesia in contrast to clear recommendation for Pain relief in patients with an acute stone episode.
The investigators will try in this trial to identify the best efficacious type of analgesia for patient during SWL in this study.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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.
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?
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?
Pain control __ Outcome Measure by "pain assessment scales of The National Initiative on Pain Control™ (NIPC™)" (time frame: 10 months). 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 29 May 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
