Trial summary

Lumbar vertebra surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures. After lumbar veretebra surgery, patients complain of excessive pain. Postoperative pain usually occurs in the early postoperative period and delays patient mobilization and thus lengthens hospital stay. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) Block For Postoperative Pain Management In Lumbar Spine Surgery : A Randomized Control Trial

Lumbar vertebra surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures. After lumbar veretebra surgery, patients complain of excessive pain. Postoperative pain usually occurs in the early postoperative period and delays patient mobilization and thus lengthens hospital stay.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of this field block on postoperative pain and respiratory function in patients undergoing ESP with lomber vertebra surgery and with ultrasound guidance for postoperative analgesia.

Lumbar vertebra surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures. After lumbar veretebra surgery, patients complain of excessive pain. Postoperative pain usually occurs in the early postoperative period and delays patient mobilization and thus lengthens hospital stay.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of this field block on postoperative pain and respiratory function in patients undergoing ESP with lomber vertebra surgery and with ultrasound guidance for postoperative analgesia.

ASA I-III, 68 patients between 18-75 years of age were planned to be included in the study. 34 participants were expected to be included in the control and implementation group.

In our study, the ESP block was planned to be applied to the patients in the block group. Peroperative analgesia plan will be applied to all patients in the same way. In this protocol, intravenous paracetamol 1 gr and tramadol 1 mg / kg were determined. Then, every eight hours, paracetamol and contromal infusion.

At the end of the operation, the patients will be determined by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) system at the 30th hour, 1st, 6th, 12th and 24th hours after the first hour of the operation. Tramadol PCA and paracetamol are administered every eight hours.

Age, sex, weight, body mass index, application of ESP block, time of surgery, duration of surgery, evaluation of pain in postoperative recovery room and 24-hour follow-up will be recorded when the patient is mobilized and discharged.

It is thought that the ESP block will decrease postoperative pain by providing effective pain control after surgery in patients undergoing lumbar vertebra surgery. In addition, it is thought to accelerate mobilization in the postoperative period and shorten the time of discharge.

Being tested
Erector spinae Block

What participants receive

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

  • Erector spinae BlockProcedure or surgery

    After anesthesia and surgical procedures, a bilateral ESP block with ultrasound guidance will be applied from the T10 level at the middle line 3 cm lateral. Prior to the block, with povidone iodine, the T10 transverse protrusion will be determined by using linear ultrasound probe. The local anesthetic will be applied between the transverse projection and the erector spina muscle with the help of an isolated needle designed for peripheral block operations. Without local anesthesia, the location of the needle with saline will be confirmed by hydrodissection. After confirming the location of the needle, 20 ml of LA and saline mixture will be applied and the same procedure will be repeated in the control. A total of 40 ml of LA, 20 ml of bupivacaine 0.5%, 10 ml of lidocaine 2%, 10 ml of saline will be composed of saline.

What is being measured

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

  1. NRS(numerical rating scala)

    Each item is scored 0-10 ( 0=no pain, 10= pain as bad as can be) Postoperative pain intensity reported with NRS score : 30. minute, 1. hours, 6. hours, 12. hours, 24. hours

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. pruritus, nausea and vomiting, use of antiemetics

    each criterion is reported as present or absent each criterion is reported as present or absent

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. mobilized , discharged

    each criterion is reported as when the patient is mobilized and when he is discharged

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Erector spinae Block in people with Erector Spinae Block, run by Aydin Adnan Menderes 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 27 Jun 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?

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

Contact Sinan Asar (905556316560, s.asar@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

NRS(numerical rating scala) (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03997227, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
