About this study

Official title: Comparative Study Between Opioid Free Pterygopalatine Ganglion Block Based Multimodal Anesthesia Versus Conventional Opioid Based Multimodal Anesthesia for Tonsillectomy Operations

intraoperative opioid administration versus intraoperative pterygopalatine ganglion block based opioid free anesthesia to compare outcomes such as postoperative administration of opioid rates of nausea and vomiting, Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) length of stay

Read the detailed description

Group A ;( opioid based multimodal anesthesia) One hundred and twenty pediatric patients will do elective tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy surgery using opioid based multimodal anesthesia.

Group B ;( opioid free pterygopalatine ganglion block based multimodal anesthesia) One hundred and twenty pediatric patients will do elective tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy surgery using opioid free pterygopalatine ganglion block based multimodal anesthesia.

For each patient, intraoperative hemodynamics, additional intraoperative analgesia required, the length of PACU stay, administration of postoperative opioids, administration of postoperative non-opioid analgesics, postoperative (visual analogue score) VAS score, will be recorded.

Being tested
opioid based multimodal anesthesia, pterygopalatine ganglion block based multimodal anesthesia)

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative VAS score

    Measured: EVERY HOUR AFTER SURGERY FOR 24 HOURS

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. TOTAL AMOUNT OF OPIOD REQUIRED POSTOPERATIVELY

    Measured: 24 HOURS AFTER SURGERY

  2. INTRAOPERATIVE BLOOD PRESSURE

    Measured: EVERY 10 MINUTES up to 1 hour

  3. INTRAOPERATIVE HEART RATE

    Measured: EVERY 10 MINUTES up to 1 hour

  4. TOTAL AMOUNT OF GIVEN INTRAOPERATIVE OPIODS

    Measured: DURING SURGERY

  5. length of PACU stay

    Measured: one day after operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing opioid based multimodal anesthesia and pterygopalatine ganglion block based multimodal anesthesia) in people with PREVENTION OF POSTTONSILLECTOMY PAIN and DECREASE POSTTONSILLECTOMY NAUSEA AND VOMITTING, run by Ain Shams University 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 21 Sep 2023. 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 VAS score (time frame: EVERY HOUR AFTER SURGERY FOR 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 21 Sep 2023.
