About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Results of Ultrasound-Guided Thoracic Paravertebral Block and Modified Pectoral Nerve Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery; A Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guidedPECS II block with TPVB for postoperative analgesia after VATS.

Read the detailed description

52 patients (ASA I-III) between 18 and 65 years of age, who were to undergo VATS, were randomized and divided into two groups. (26 patients in each of the PECS and TPVB groups) Thoracic paravertebral block was administered from two consecutive levels for TPVB group and a modified pectoral nerve block was performed in the PECS group. Postoperative analgesia was provided by intravenous morphine infusion using a patient-controlled analgesia device. Postoperative 24-hour total morphine consumption and duration of analgesia were the primary outcome measure. Perioperative remifentanil use, visual analog scale values during at rest and coughing, time of the first analgesic request, and additional analgesic consumption were recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative 24-hours total morphine consumption of patients

    This will be measured only one time by pca device at the 24th hour after surgery.

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Visual Analog Scale values of patients

    Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0-10; 0= no pain and 10= very severe unbearable pain) at 0-1-2-4-8-12 and 24th hours

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing paravertebral block and pectoral block in people with Thoracic Paravertebral Block and Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery, run by Bakirkoy Dr. Sadi Konuk Research and Training Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 9 Jul 2021. 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?

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?

Postoperative 24-hours total morphine consumption of patients (time frame: 24 hours postoperatively). 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 9 Jul 2021.
