About this study

Official title: The Feasibility of Bilateral Intermediate Cervical Plexus Block for Thyroidectomy/Parathyroidectomy Under Moderate Sedation; Retrospective Study

The aim of this study was evaluated the feasibility of bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blockade to be anesthesia for simple thyroid/parathyroid surgery.

Read the detailed description

Bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blocks have been reported for thyroid/parathyroid surgery. This technique combined with intravenous sedation has used with safety in patients undergoing simple thyroid or parathyroid surgery. Simple surgery is defined as the thyroid conditions are not cancer, redo or substernal goiter.

Being tested
Bilateral intermediate cervical plexus block
Keywords

Medical subject headings
Parathyroid Neoplasms, Thyroid Nodule

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blockProcedure or surgery

    Bilateral intermediate cervical plexus block was performed under ultrasound guidance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Conversion to general anesthesia

    inability to operate under nerve block and sedation

    Measured: during operation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. opioid usage

    fentanyl consumption

    Measured: intraoperative

  2. dypnea

    phrenic nerve paralysis

    Measured: intraoperative

  3. pain score within 24 hours

    numerical rating score

    Measured: within 24 hours postoperative

  4. complications

    local anesthetic systemic toxicity

    Measured: intraoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parathyroid Adenoma and Thyroid Nodule, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 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 Thailand. 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?

Conversion to general anesthesia (time frame: during operation). 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 NCT04905641, which also lists 7 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2021.
