About this study

Official title: The Comparison of the Erector Spinae Plane Block and Wound Infiltration on Postoperative Opioid Consumption in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

Colorectal cancer is a common and lethal disease. It still remains the third most common cause of cancer death in women and the second leading cause of death in men. Pain control is an important direction of postoperative management in malignancy surgery. Inadequate pain control increases cardiac and respiratory complications in these critical patients. Erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a recently described regional anesthesia technique that blocks the dorsal and ventral rami of the spinal nerves and the sympathetic nerve fibers. While the ESP block has been shown to provide effective postoperative analgesia after thoracic, and abdominal surgeries.

Our aim in this study was to investigate bilateral thoracic ESP block for providing successful postoperative pain management following colorectal surgery.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Opioid Consumption

    Opioid consumption postroperative period

    Measured: Postoperative first 24 hours

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 first 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bupivacaine Hcl 0.25% ESP block and Bupivacaine Hcl 0.25% infiltration in people with Colorectal Cancer and Postoperative Pain, 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 1 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 4 Jun 2020. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact İrem Ates, MD (00905327401258, driremates@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Opioid Consumption (time frame: Postoperative first 24 hours). 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 NCT04313764, 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.

How often is this information updated?
