Trial summary

Performing intravenous (IV) cannulation to pediatric patients might be much harder than adult ones according to their anxiety levels. However, managing adult patients during intravenous cannulation is also challenging if he or she had a noxious memory about the situation or has a low pain threshold. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A New Method for Pain Relief, Intravenous Cannulation in Pediatric Patients; A Randomized Prospective Clinical Trial.

Performing intravenous (IV) cannulation to pediatric patients might be much harder than adult ones according to their anxiety levels. However, managing adult patients during intravenous cannulation is also challenging if he or she had a noxious memory about the situation or has a low pain threshold. Therefore, it is essential to relieve the pain of an IV needle or an IV cannula insertion in the pediatric patient population. Lidocaine Hcl spray (Xylocaine 10% Oral ) will be utilized to the research group, and Serum Physiologic (Serum Fizyolojik %0,9 10 ml ampule, Biofarma İlaç San. ve Tic A.Ş., İstanbul, Turkey) will be utilized to the control group of the study. Both medications will be administrated by spraying the formula three times to an adhesive bandage and placing it to the skin that IV cannulation will be performed. After waiting for a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 15 minutes ( waiting time is closely associated with the patient's anxiety level), IV cannulation will be performed from the same area by an experienced pediatric nurse. The investigator hypothesizes that utilizing the spray form of the Lidocaine Hcl formula to the skin with an adhesive bandage before IV cannulation might lower the pain of the manipulation in pediatric patients, which might cause lower anxiety levels with stable vital signs.

Read the detailed description

The G-Power 3.0.10. Computed required sample size (alpha:0.05, effect size:0.3 and power 0.8) related to t-test of the difference between two dependent means(matched pairs) according to the 5% change of before and after heartbeat outcome parameters with Standard derivations of ( -/+12 to +/-15). The total sample size of ninety participants is evaluated to be enough for the study. However, fifty participants are planned to be enrolled in each group (a total of 100 participants) to compensate for possible losses in this prospective, randomized clinical study. Six parameters will be evaluated, and three scales will be performed in each group. The six parameters are Heart Rate-1, Spo2-1, Body Temperature-1, Heart Rate-2, Spo2-2, Body Temperature-2. The three scales are 11 point Verbal Numeric Rating Scale-1, 11 point Verbal Numeric Rating Scale-2, and Visual Analog Scale. Those parameters will be measured non-invasively, without causing any pain.

The randomization is planned to be done with the sealed envelope modeling. One of the envelopes is planned to be chosen by each participant after the written consent form approval from the child and his/her parents. The envelopes have either a "C" letter or "L" letter inside representing C as {Group C: "The Control Group"}, representing L as {Group L: "The Lidocaine Group"} will be opened by the principal investigator. The bottle 1(Serum Physiologic inside) or bottle 2( Lidocaine inside) will be given to the ward nurse according to the letters in the envelope. The ward nurse will be blinded according to the ingredients in the bottles. The outcome parameters and the scales will be recorded by the nurse in the investigation. The nurse in the investigation will be blinded about the groups, the envelopes and the ingredients performed to the participants.

The study is planned to last in 4 months (16 weeks) time. However, in the middle of the study( 25 participants undertaken within each group), post-doc tests are planned to be done. If the power of the study according to the post-Hoc tests are more than 80%, the study will be stopped.

What is being measured

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

  1. Heart Rate-1

    Heart Beat per minute, data obtained from SpO2 pediatric probe, before IV cannula insertion

    Measured: It is going to be measured in the first minute(1st min) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.

  2. SpO2-1

    Peripheral Oxygen concentration, data obtained from SpO2 pediatric probe, before IV cannula insertion.

  3. Body Temperature-1

    Body temperature, data obtained from tympanic temperature, before IV cannula insertion

    Measured: It is going to be measured in the second minute(2nd min) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.

  4. Heart Rate-2

    Heart Beat per minute, data obtained from SpO2 pediatric probe, after IV cannula insertion

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. 11-point Verbal Numeric Rating Scale-1 (VNS-1)

    The subject is going to be asked to rate the cannula insertion pain, which the subject had experienced before the study ( if they had no experience Outcome 7 would stay empty), verbally according to the intensity from 0-10 with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 representing "the most intense pain imaginable."

    Measured: It is going to be measured in the third minute(3rd min) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.

  2. Visual Analog Scales

    The subject will be asked to rate the cannula insertion pain after insertion by placing a vertical mark on a 100 mm horizontal VAS. The left and right extremes of the VAS are labeled as; "least possible pain" and "worst possible pain" respectively. 100mm VAS is devided into 5 categorical descriptors: "much less pain," "a little less pain," "about the same pain," "a little more pain," or "much more pain."

    Measured: It is going to be measured in the in the last 5 minutes period of the study(approximately in the 14th minute) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.

  3. 11-point Verbal Numeric Rating Scale-2 (VNS-2)

    The subject is going to be asked to rate the cannula insertion pain after insertion verbally according to the intensity from 0-10 with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 representing "the most intense pain imaginable."

    Measured: It is going to be measured in the in the last 5 minutes period of the study(approximately in the 15th minute) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Heart Rate-1 (time frame: It is going to be measured in the first minute(1st min) of the total 15 mins. study, for each participant, through study completion up to 16 weeks.). The study lists 6 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 NCT04246255, which also lists 2 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.
