Trial summary

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the major disorder of the pediatric population with an incidence of 3 to 5 per 1000 children. Open surgical reduction of congenital hip dislocation (CHD) is typically performed after an ineffective closed reduction or older than 18 months. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block for Congenital Hip Dislocation Surgery: Randomized Controlled Double Blind Study

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the major disorder of the pediatric population with an incidence of 3 to 5 per 1000 children. Open surgical reduction of congenital hip dislocation (CHD) is typically performed after an ineffective closed reduction or older than 18 months. Multiple femoral or pelvic osteotomies and tenotomies are performed during this surgical treatment and cause severe postoperative pain. Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been recently recommended for use as postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries. It is a new regional anesthesia method based on blocking the articular branches of femoral nerve (FN) and accessory obturator nerve (AON) in the region between the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and iliopubic eminence (IPE).The aim of this study was to evaluate the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided pediatric pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block in pediatric patients undergoing CHD surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Face, Legs, Activity, Cry and Consolability Score (FLACC)

    FLACC scale will be used. The Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale or FLACC scale is a measurement used to assess pain for children between the ages of 2 months and 7 years or individuals that are unable to communicate their pain. The scale is scored in a range of 0-10 with 0 representing no pain. The scale has five criteria, which are each assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2.

    Measured: Postoperative first 24hour

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Need for rescue analgesic

    Number of patients who required rescue analgesia in postoperative care unit in the first 2 hour

    Measured: 2 hour

  2. Need for analgesic

    Number of patients who required analgesic in the first 24 hour

    Measured: 24 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Saline Solution and Bupivacaine in people with Congenital Hip Dysplasia, run by Ataturk 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 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 13 Sep 2022. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Face, Legs, Activity, Cry and Consolability Score (FLACC) (time frame: Postoperative first 24hour). 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 NCT04212039, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 13 Sep 2022.
