About this study

Official title: Effects of Transversalis Fascia Plane Block and Rectus Sheath Block on Opioid Consumption in Renal Transplantation Donors

Transversalis fascia plane block (TFPB) is a relatively new, easy-to-apply and safe regional anesthesia technique used to provide postoperative analgesia in various surgeries. It has been shown that TFPB and rectus sheath block (RSB) administration reduces opioid consumption and related side effects in patients undergoing surgery with general anesthesia. To our knowledge, there is no study examining TFPB in donor nephrectomy.

The investigators aimed to prospectively examine the effect of TFPB and RSB on opioid consumption in postoperative period on donors who will undergo laparoscopic nephrectomy in renal transplantation surgery.

Being tested
Transversalis fascia plane block and rectus sheath block, Intravenous fentanyl patient control device
Medical subject headings
Pain, Postoperative

What participants receive

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

  • Transversalis fascia plane block and rectus sheath blockProcedure or surgery

    Transversalis fascia plane block and rectus sheath block will be administered after the surgery.

  • Intravenous fentanyl patient control deviceDevice

    24-hour fentanyl consumption will be recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Total opioid consumption retrieved from patient records

    the amount of fentanyl required by the patient and given by the device will be recorded for the first 24 hours.

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    Pain of patients will be evaluated and recorded according to NRS. A NRS requires the patient to rate their pain on a defined scale between 0 and10 (0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain)

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transversalis fascia plane block and rectus sheath block in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Koc University 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 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2022. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Özlem Özkalaycı, MD (+90 850 250 8250 ext. 29805, oozkalayci@kuh.ku.edu.tr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total opioid consumption retrieved from patient records (time frame: up to 24 hours). 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 Apr 2022.
