About this study

Official title: Influence of Intraoperative Opioids (Oxycodone/Fentanyl) Usage on the Post-operative Pain Management of Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM)

Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive treatment for esophageal achalasia with a natural orifice transluminal endoscopic procedure and far less invasive than the standard surgical or laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM). Less is known about the postoperative pain after POEM and the minor surgery trauma, short length of stay may lead to underestimation of postoperative pain control. We tend to observe the pain status after the POEM surgery under the empirical treatment in our center, and find a proper intra-operative way of pain control to solve the post-operative pain and seek the possible influence factors of postoperative pain.

What participants receive

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

  • FentanylDrug

    the patients use remifentanil and fentanyl as intra-operatively pain control and compare the post-operative pain condition with the oxycodone group

  • OxycodoneDrug

    the patients use oxycodone and remifentanil as intra-operatively pain control and compare the post-operative pain condition with the fentanyl group

What is being measured

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

  1. post-operative pain condition

    use Visual Analogue Scale/Score(0-10) to record post operative pain

    Measured: 36 hours after the POEM surgery

  2. post-operative PCA usage volumn

    record PCA usage volumn(ml) to see the dosage of opiods used after the surgery

    Measured: 36 hours after the POEM surgery

  3. post-operative sleep quality

    Postoperative sleep quality was investigated with a self-reported sleep questionnaire including 6 yes/no questions(0-6) with full score 6 represented the worst sleep

    Measured: 48 hoursafter the surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. chronic pain condition

    use Visual Analogue Scale/Score(0-10) to evaluate the pain condition

    Measured: 28 days after discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fentanyl and Oxycodone in people with Achalasia, run by Chen Wannan.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 26 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Wannan Chen, MD (8613524684181, chen.wannan@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

post-operative pain condition (time frame: 36 hours after the POEM surgery). 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?
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 26 Nov 2019.
