Trial summary

Costoclavicular approach has lots of advantages compared to the lateral sagittal approach for infraclavicular brachial plexus block. Although the efficacy of this block has been demonstrated in adults, there are no randomized controlled trials in the literature on the application of pediatric patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Comparison of Lateral Sagittal vs Costoclavicular Brachial Plexus Block in Children

Costoclavicular approach has lots of advantages compared to the lateral sagittal approach for infraclavicular brachial plexus block. Although the efficacy of this block has been demonstrated in adults, there are no randomized controlled trials in the literature on the application of pediatric patients. Our aim was to compare the ultrasound-guided infraclavicular and costoclavicular approach in pediatric patients.

Being tested
Lidocaine and Bupivacaine solution, Costoclavicular block, Lateral Sagittal block
Medical subject headings
Hand Injuries, Disease, Forearm Injuries

What is being measured

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

  1. Block performance time

    The time interval between the contact of the ultrasound probe to skin and end of local anesthetics injection.

    Measured: Twenty minutes before surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Visual analog pain score

    Pain will be evaluated with a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score of 0-10 (0= no pain and 10= worst imaginable pain)

    Measured: Postoperative 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lidocaine and Bupivacaine solution, Costoclavicular block and Lateral Sagittal block in people with Hand Injuries and Disorders and Forearm Injuries, 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 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.

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?

Block performance time (time frame: Twenty minutes before surgery). 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?
