About this study

Official title: Evaluating the Efficacy of Erector Spinae Block in Routine Hip Arthroscopy: A Prospective Analysis

The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative erector spinae blocks in arthroscopic hip surgery. This will be a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative erector spinae blocks in arthroscopic hip surgery. This will be a prospective randomized controlled trial. The control group will not receive a preoperative block prior to surgery, but will receive local anesthetic at the surgical site at the conclusion of the surgery. The study group will receive a preoperative block and local anesthetic. The primary outcomes will be pain levels and opioid consumption in the post-operative care unit. The secondary outcomes will be pain levels and opioid consumption post-operatively, and functional outcome measures.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Post Anesthesia Care Unit Opioids

    Total morphine milligram equivalents of administered in the post-operative care unit

    Measured: 6 hours post-operatively

  2. Post Anesthesia Care Unit Pain

    Visual analogue pain score at the time of discharge from the Post Anesthesia Care Unit in which 0 equals no pain and 10 equals extreme pain

    Measured: 6 hours post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score

    Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome score at post-op visits in which 0 equals no pain and 100 equals unbearable pain

    Measured: 1 year post-operatively

  2. Patient Reported Outcomes measurement Information System Score

    Patient Reported Outcomes measurement Information System score at post-op visits in which 0 equals no pain and 10 equals extreme pain

    Measured: 1 year post-operatively

  3. Range Of Motion

    Hip range of motion in degrees of motion, will be examined by the operative surgeon in the office measured by flexion 0-110 degrees with 0 being no range of motion and 110 being full range of motion, internal rotation -5-25 degrees with -5 being no range of motion and -25 being full range of motion, and external rotation 0-60 degrees with 0 being no range of motion and 60 being full range of motion.

    Measured: 1 year post-operatively

  4. Outpatient Opioids

    Opioids consumed after discharge from hospital

    Measured: 4 weeks post discharge

  5. Outpatient Visual Analog Scale scores

    Pain scores each day for the first 4 weeks after surgery on the Visual Analog Scale in which 0 equals no pain and 10 equals unbearable pain

    Measured: 4 weeks post discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Erector spinae block and Local block in people with Hip Disease and Postoperative Pain, run by Carilion Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Post Anesthesia Care Unit Opioids (time frame: 6 hours post-operatively). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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.
