Trial summary

To enhance post-operative pain management, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) has been employed. The fentanyl background PCIA therapy was created to solve the limitations of IV-based PCIA, such as programming errors, mobility limitations, and the risk of needle stick injuries.

About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Patient-Controlled Intravenous Analgesia (PCIA) With Fentanyl Background Infusion for Total Hip Replacement

To enhance post-operative pain management, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) has been employed. The fentanyl background PCIA therapy was created to solve the limitations of IV-based PCIA, such as programming errors, mobility limitations, and the risk of needle stick injuries. The goal of this trial was to observe how fentanyl patient-controlled intravenous analgesia pump (PCIA) and background infusion is worked in patients with post-total hip replacement analgesia.

Read the detailed description

Significant efforts to enhance the treatment of postoperative pain have resulted in the formulation and implementation of pain management guidelines, as well as the introduction of acute pain services in several hospitals during the last two decades.

Recent research, however, suggests that postoperative pain is still poorly controlled .

Hip replacement procedures are prevalent among the elderly, and they are significantly more painful .

The patient may suffer greatly as a result of the pain, which can also affect physiological functioning caused by hormonal changes caused by sympathetic nervous system activation .

Anaesthesiologists and patients alike are concerned about pain management following major surgery. It should also be mentioned that every pain management medication has certain side effects, especially when an opioid is utilized .

In the clinical ICU, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) has been used to improve postoperative pain management. Titrate analgesics according to demand. It typically provides better pain management and increases patient satisfaction when compared to "on-demand" opioid injections .

The settings programmed into the PCIA machine, such as the bolus dosage, lockout interval, dose restrictions, and background infusion, are included in the PCIA prescription. Each of these factors might have an impact on the safety and efficacy of PCIA.

A new fentanyl-based PCIA therapy has been developed to overcome constraints associated with PCIA provided by IV, such as programming mistakes, mobility limits, and the danger of needle stick injuries.

Prommer and colleagues demonstrated that a fentanyl dosage delivered through PCIA resulted in a mean C max of 1.954 ug/L and a mean absorption of 39.5 ug fentanyl per 10-minute dose delivery time .

What participants receive

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

  • FentanylDrug

    Also called hyperbaric bupivacaine

    All patients underwent combined spinal and epidural anesthesia (CSEA) with 2 ml of 0.5 % hyperbaric bupivacaine and 25 ug fentanyl administered using a 27-gauge Whitacre spinal needle and an 18-gauge Tuohy needle in the epidural space. The epidural space was identified utilizing the loss of resistance approach

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Fentanyl in people with Total Hip Replacement, run by Egymedicalpedia 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 1 inclusion and 9 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 23 Jun 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Fentanyl Background (time frame: from 0 hours to 36 hours after the completion of the operation). 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 23 Jun 2022.
