About this study

Official title: Pulmonary Recruitment Maneuver With 15 or 30 cmH2O Pressure in Semi-Fowler Position: Which Provides Less Postoperative Shoulder Pain Following Gynecologic Laparoscopic Surgery

Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) has been shown to reduce postoperative shoulder pain by removing excessive intraabdominal gas following laparoscopic surgery(LS). A recent study demonstrated that compared to PRM in the supine position, PRM at semi-fowler position provides better evacuation of the remaining intraabdominal gas following gynecologic LS.

This study aimed to compare the impact of PRM with 15 cm H2O and PRM with 30 cm H2O on postoperative shoulder pain in patients undergoing gynecologic LS.

Read the detailed description

Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) consists of five manual pulmonary inflations where each positive pressure inflation was done for 5 s at a maximum pressure of 30-40 cm H2O in the neutral position. When used after laparoscopic surgery and just before the extubation, PRM has been shown to facilitate the removal of intraabdominal gas and thus reduce the postoperative shoulder pain which is associated with the volume of the gas accumulating under the diaphragm. A recent study demonstrated that compared to PRM in the supine position, PRM at semi-fowler position provides better evacuation of the remaining intraabdominal gas and less postoperative shoulder pain following gynecologic LS. However, whether a PRM with lower pressure is also effective in reducing postoperative intraabdominal gas and postoperative shoulder pain is of question. This study aimed to compare the impact of PRM with two pressures (15 cm H2O or 30 cm H2O) in addition to the semi-fowler position on postoperative shoulder pain in patients undergoing gynecologic LS.

What participants receive

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

  • Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM)- 30 cm H2OOther

    Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) consists of five manual pulmonary inflations where each positive pressure inflation will be performed for 5 s at a maximum pressure of 30 cm H2O in the semi-fowler position (30° head-of-bed elevation ). PRM is performed after LS when the main umbilical port is remaining and aims to remove the remaining gas following LS.

  • Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM)- 15 cm H2OOther

    Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) consists of five manual pulmonary inflations where each positive pressure inflation will be performed for 5 s at a maximum pressure of 15 cm H2O in the semi-fowler position (30° head-of-bed elevation ). PRM is performed after LS when the main umbilical port is remaining and aims to remove the remaining gas following LS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative shoulder pain using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) based on a 0-10 scale, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 the most intense pain ever experienced

    Change in postoperative shoulder pain between the two PRM pressure groups

    Measured: At postoperative 6, 12 and 24 hours using a visual analogue scale (VAS) based on a 0-10 scale, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 the most intense pain ever experienced.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM)- 30 cm H2O and Pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM)- 15 cm H2O in people with Surgery, run by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 3 Oct 2019. 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?

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?

Postoperative shoulder pain using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) based on a 0-10 scale, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 the most intense pain ever experienced (time frame: At postoperative 6, 12 and 24 hours using a visual analogue scale (VAS) based on a 0-10 scale, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 the most intense pain ever experienced.). 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 3 Oct 2019.
