About this study

Official title: Acute and Chronic Pain After Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery for Lung Cancer in Patients With Preoperative CT-guided Hookwire Localization

The aim of this study is to evaluate whether preoperative CT- guided hookwire localization would influence the incidence and intensity of acute and chronic pain after VATS.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative pain after thoracic surgery has gained recognition as a adverse outcome and head-scratching problem. The incidence of choric postoperative pain (CPSP) in thoracic surgery has been reported to be 20%-80%. However, there has been not an standard treatment for CPSP. Many study has showed the risk factors of CPSP in thoracic surgery, such as VATS type, operation time, duration of drainage, preoperative pain, repeat surgery, gender, postoperative chemotherapy or radiation therapy , etc. It is important that moderate-to-severe acute postoperative pain will be transformed into CPSP. That offers a new management goal in postoperative pain prevention.CT-guided hookwire localization have been proven to be benefical for VATS to diagnose and treat small pulmonary , it can shorten operation timing and increase surgery success rate. However, it causes roughly 23.8% severe pain and complaints included wire dislodgement, pneumothorax and haemorrhage during and after insertion. The question is whether or not the moderate-to-severe acute postoperative pain from hookwire localition will change the incidence and intensity of CPSP in VATS.

Nurses play a pivotal role in advanced practice, research, and education in the field of pain management. The pain management of hookwire localization may be a new vison in further research.

What participants receive

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

  • Hookwire localizationOther

    Patients were performed CT -guided hook wire localization(20G×120mm, PAJUNK medizintechnologie, Geisingen in Germany). patients were placed on a CT table in a suitable position(supine, prone, lateral) to obtain the shortest needle insertion route for their initial CT scan. Local anesthesia of the skin and planned puncture tract was performed using 10ml Lidocaine 1%. Next, the needle was inserted into or near the pulmonary nodule.

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative incidence and intensity of chronic pain after surgery

    the incidence and severity(11-point numerical rating scale,0=painless, 10=woest pain)of pain was assessed after VATS operation

    Measured: at postoperative 3rd month

  2. postoperative incidence and intensity of chronic pain after surgery

    the incidence and severity(11-point numerical rating scale, 0=painless, 10=worst pain)of pain was assessed after VATS operation

    Measured: at postoperative 6th month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. postoperative length of stay in hospital

    the days between postoperative 1st day and day of discharge from hospital

    Measured: an average of 1 week

  2. satisfactory score

    Likert score (from 1 to 5),higher scores mean a better outcome

    Measured: from the day discharge from hospital to postoperative 6th month

  3. intensity of postoperative acute pain

    the severity(11-point numerical rating scale, 0=no pain, 10=worst pain) after VATS operation

    Measured: from immediately after surgery(at postanesthesia care unit ) to postoperative 2nd day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 24 Oct 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 China. 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 incidence and intensity of chronic pain after surgery (time frame: at postoperative 3rd month). 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.

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 24 Oct 2022.
