About this study

Official title: Incidence of Orthostatic Intolerance and Orthostatic Hypotension After Administration of Intravenous Morphine in Patients Prior to Hip or Knee Arthroplasty

Incidence of orthostatic intolerance and orthostatic hypotension after intravenous administration of morphine in patients prior to hip or knee arthroplasty.

Read the detailed description

Early postoperative mobilization is crucial for recovery of patients undergoing surgery in the multimodal fast-track approach to perioperative care, since physical immobilization is highly associated with increased risk of postoperative complications and prolonged hospital length of stay. Postoperative mobilization is often delayed due to patients experiencing orthostatic hypotension (OH), defined as a drop in systolic blood pressure > 20 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 10 mmHg, or orthostatic intolerance (OI), characterized by dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, sensation of heat or syncope.

Previous studies have found a high incidence of postoperative OI (> 40 %) among patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.

A possible causative factor to the high occurrence of OH and OI after surgery could be postoperative pain management by administration of morphine. Morphine is known to have many side-effects including nausea, vomiting, dizziness and orthostatic hypotension.

The object of this study is to isolate and estimate the effect of intravenous morphine on the incidence of OH and OI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of orthostatic hypotension

    Orthostatic hypotension is defined as a fall in systolic pressure > 20 mmHg and/or diastolic pressure > 10 mmHg during mobilization

    Measured: 30 minutes after morphine administration

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Changes in systolic arterial pressure (SAP) during mobilization

    Measured in mmHg by non-invasive Lithium Dilution Cardiac Output (LiDCO) measurement

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  2. Changes in diastolic arterial pressure (DAP) during mobilization

    Measured in mmHg by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  3. Changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) during mobilization

    Measured in mmHg by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  4. Changes in heart rate (HR) during mobilization

    Measured in beats min-1 by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  5. Changes in stroke volume (SV) during mobilization

    Measured in mL by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  6. Changes in cardiac output (CO) during mobilization

    Measured in L/min by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  7. Changes in systemic vascular resistance (SVR) during mobilization

    Measured in dynes s cm-5 by non-invasive LiDCO

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  8. Changes in peripheral perfusion index (PPI) during mobilization

    Measured in % by Root Masimo

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  9. Changes in cerebral perfusion (ScO2) during mobilization

    Measured in % by Root Masimo

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  10. Changes in muscular perfusion (SmO2) during mobilization

    Measured in % by Root Masimo

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  11. Changes in baroreflex sensitivity - vagal (BRSv) during Valsalva manoeuvre

    Measured in ms

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

  12. Changes in heart rate variability (HRV) during Valsalva manoeuvre

    Measured in ms

    Measured: Before and 30 minutes after morphine administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Orthostatic Hypotension and Orthostatic Intolerance, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Hvidovre at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 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 Denmark. 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 Bodil Uldall-Hansen, BA Medicine (+4528342057, bodil.uldall-hansen@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of orthostatic hypotension (time frame: 30 minutes after morphine administration). 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 18 Jun 2021.
