Trial summary

It can be suggested that sympathetic tonus increase and pain, caused by the removal of the effect of epidural analgesia applied at birth, may also affect perfüsion index. The purpose of this study is; To correlate the VAS value at the time of return of epidural analgesia with the PI values at that time and, to test… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Can the Perfusion Index be Used as an Objective Instrument for the Assessment of Pain in the Labor Analgesia?

It can be suggested that sympathetic tonus increase and pain, caused by the removal of the effect of epidural analgesia applied at birth, may also affect perfüsion index. The purpose of this study is; To correlate the VAS value at the time of return of epidural analgesia with the PI values at that time and, to test the possibility of using PI variants as an objective tool for predicting pain initiation time and assessing pain.

  • perfüsion indexDiagnostic test

    Determination of the relationship between VAS values and PI in patients with normal delivery who undergo epidural analgesia

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. relationship between Visual analogue scale and Perfüsion index

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of perfüsion Index in Removal of the Epidural Analgesia, run by Erzincan University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2017. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact ilke kupeli (5555485632, ilkeser2004@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

relationship between Visual analogue scale and Perfüsion index (time frame: three 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 NCT03107559, which also lists 5 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 May 2017.
