Trial summary

Since 1987, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the standard procedure for gallbladder stones and lesions. Complications due to improvements in laparoscopy and increased surgical experience have decreased day by day, but there is still a problem in terms of postoperative pain management.

About this study

Official title: COMPARISON OF INTRAOPERATIVE TRANSVERSUS ABDOMINIS PLANE BLOCK, LOCAL ANESTHESIA APPLICATION TO THE PORT SITES AND INTRAPERITONEAL LOCAL ANESTHETIC APPLICATIONS IN POSTOPERATIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT IN LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY PATIENTS

Since 1987, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the standard procedure for gallbladder stones and lesions. Complications due to improvements in laparoscopy and increased surgical experience have decreased day by day, but there is still a problem in terms of postoperative pain management. Several pain management procedures have been tried to combat pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim of this study is to decrease the length of hospital stay, to increase the comfort of the patient and to reduce the cost of treatment. Local anesthetic injection to port locations, intraperitoneal periportal local anesthetic injection ,Transversus Abdominis Plane Blok and without any local anesthetic application to the control group compared to the group's analgesic efficiency and to reduce the amount of analgesics needed, shorten the length of hospital stay and improve patient comfort.

Read the detailed description

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure will be performed in patients older than 18 years of age for the diagnosis of cholelithiasis. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure will be performed.4 patients group will be formed Power: 0.80 and alpha: :0.05 The minimum number of samples determined for each group is n: 34 for each group. It will be determined. In our clinic, local anesthetic injections are performed routinely to the trocar areas in laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations. After endotracheal intubation at the beginning of the operation, after appropriate skin staining and sterile dressing, Transversus abdominis plane block (10 cc / 10 cc, 0.5% bupivacaine to the right and left transversus abdominis muscle regions) will be applied. to the second group local anesthetic injection (6 cc to subxiphoid and infraumbilical trocar sites, 4 cc instead of 2 cc, 0.5% bupivacaine solution) to be applied, in the third group intraperitoneal direct vision of the gallbladder area-periportal area under the direct injection of local anesthetic spraying process (percutaneous method injected into the periportal area 1: 1 diluted with 20 cc saline, 20 cc 0.5% bupivacaine solution total 40 cc spraying will be applied. The fourth group will be the control group and any of these methods will not be applied, the operation time and peroperative complications (pouch perforation etc.) will be recorded. Paracetamol 1 g + 1 mg / kg tramadol IV will be applied to all four groups as standard before extubation. Visual analogue scale (VAS) will be applied to all patients in the postoperative period. If VAS> 3 is still present, a dose of 1 mg / kg tramadol will be administered. Tenoxicam 1x1 IV will be applied to the patients on the 12th hour. All patients were postoperative; 1,2,4,6,12,24. VAS scores , patient satisfaction (0: never satisfied, 5: very satisfied) will be recorded. The group of patients will be determined according to the order of surgery. Pain scores of the patients will be performed by a physician who is not in the operation who does not know which group is taken. The patients included in the group will not be known to the patient by the pain scoring system and the study will be done as double blind. Patients will be randomized with this method.

What is being measured

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

  1. Level of postoperative pain: visual analogue scale

    the level of the pain will be assessed using the VAS ( visual analogue scale) which is a psychometric response scale and the patient has to indicate a position along a continuous line between two end-points (no pain and maximum pain) that best reflects the intensity of their pain. The pain measurements will be done at 1,2,4,6,12,24 hours. Test is easy to obtain, reliable, valid and can detect changes of over time

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bupivacaine in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2021. 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.

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?

Level of postoperative pain: visual analogue scale (time frame: 24 hours). 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 23 Mar 2021.
