About this study

Official title: Ultrasound-Guided Suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca Block Versus Lumbar Erector Spinae Plane Block for Oncologic Thigh Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This is a prospective; double blinded randomized controlled trial that will be conducted on cancer patients subjected to oncologic thigh surgery.The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the analgesic effect of supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block and lumbar erector spinae plane block in oncologic thigh surgery.Patients will be randomized into three equal comparable groups, Group A (Ultrasound-guided supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block (SIFIB)), Group B (Ultrasound-guided lumbar erector spinae plane block (L-ESPB)), and Group C (control group). Primary outcome parameter is the total postoperative morphine consumption over the first 24 hours postoperative. Data will be analyzed using IBM SPSS 26 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL).

Read the detailed description

Pain is one of the most common and significant postoperative events experienced by many surgical patients. Orthopedic surgery is a relatively painful surgery due to the significant amount of bone and soft tissue resection, damage, and reconstruction. After thigh surgery for sarcomas, the patient may experience any of three distinct types of pain, including acute postoperative pain, persistent long-term nociceptive pain, and neuropathic pain related to intraoperative nerve injuries. The management of pain in limb sparing surgery patients and amputated patients is crucial during the rehabilitation program and often its approach is multidisciplinary. The ultrasound-guided supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block further built on earlier anatomic discoveries to more reliably anesthetize the three nerves: femoral, lateral femoral cutaneous, and obturator. The supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block has evolved as an effective means of providing analgesia to the thigh, the knee, and, most notably, the hip. Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is an interfascial plane block reported in the treatment of postoperative pain from surgical procedures, ranging from shoulder to hip surgery. When performed at the lumbar 4th vertebral level, ESPB led to sensorial blockage between Th12 and L4 dermatomes lead to effective postoperative analgesia in hip and proximal femoral surgery. Although supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block and L-ESPB successfully reduced postoperative opioid consumption in previous study, no study has ever compared their efficacy in postoperative analgesia of adult patients undergoing oncologic thigh surgery under general anesthesia. Thus, in this randomized comparative study we are aiming to fill this gape in the literature.

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative morphine consumption .

    Total postoperative morphine consumption over the first 24 hours postoperative.

    Measured: over the first 24 hours postoperative

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. fentanyl consumption.

    Total intra-operative fentanyl consumption.

    Measured: intra-operative

  2. The time of first rescue analgesia.

    The time of first rescue analgesia.

    Measured: over the first 24 hours postoperative

  3. Visual Analogue Scale

    Pain will be assessed using Visual Analogue Scale, both at rest and during movement, pain scores using visual Analogue Scale will be recorded in the post anesthesia care unit and for the next 24 hours postoperative.score (0) means no pain, scores(1-3) are considered mild pain, (4-6) moderate pain and (7-10) severe pain

    Measured: over the first 24 hours postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ultrasound-Guided Suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca Block Versus Lumbar Erector Spinae Plane Block in people with Perioperative Pain, run by National Cancer Institute, Egypt at 1 site in Egypt.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2024. 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 Egypt. 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 morphine consumption . (time frame: over the first 24 hours postoperative). 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 5 Nov 2024.
