Official title: Dexmedetomidine Added to Bupivacaine Versus Bupivacaine inTransincisionalU/S Guided Quadratus Lumborum Block in Open Renal Surgeries , A New Technique :Prospective, Randomized Double- Blinded Study

The purpose of this study is to compare the addition of dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine versus bupivacaine only in anterior QLblock(transincisional) , where the local anesthetic will be applied before wound closure at the end of surgery through the wound . in combination with general anesthesia in elective open renal surgery with regard to Postoperative pain control,hemodynamic stability, and adverse effects.

Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • Dexmedetomidine +bupivacaineDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. First time to analgesic requirement

    After extubation, an intravenous patient - controlled system, will be connected to the patient (Accufuser plus 100 ml) will be prepared with 60 ml isotonic saline containing 60 mg morphine , it will be programmed to give 0.5 ml bolus dose with lockout interval of 8 minutes. Time to first bolus will be recorded considering extubation time is the zero time

    Measured: 1st 24 hour postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the secondary outcomes will be the total opioid consumption postoperatively

    PCA will prepared with 60 mL of normal saline containing 60 mg of morphine, and the system will be programmed to give a 0.5 mL bolus dose with a lockout interval of 8 min.

    Measured: 1st 24 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine +bupivacaine and Bupivacaine in people with Anesthesia, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 19 May 2020. 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 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?

First time to analgesic requirement (time frame: 1st 24 hour postoperatively). 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 19 May 2020.
