Trial summary

Oxycodone showed similar or superior analgesic effects than fentanyl and was proposed as an alternative for fentanyl for pain control in the postoperative period. However, it was mainly directed to control visceral pain, due to the mediation of analgesic effects by the kappa receptors. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Analgesic Efficacy and Safety of Oxycodone Hydrochloride Versus Fentanyl After Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized Triple-Blind Trial

Oxycodone showed similar or superior analgesic effects than fentanyl and was proposed as an alternative for fentanyl for pain control in the postoperative period. However, it was mainly directed to control visceral pain, due to the mediation of analgesic effects by the kappa receptors. However, few studies compared the oxycodone to fentanyl for postoperative pain relief in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (replacement). Therefore, we established this randomized study to compare the efficacy of oxycodone and fentanyl for relief of postoperative pain after total hip arthroplasty (replacement).

Being tested
propofol, rocuronium and fentanyl
Keywords
Oxycodone Hydrochloride, Fentanyl

What participants receive

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

  • propofol, rocuronium and fentanylDrug

    In fentanyl group (36 patients), 50 ug of fentanyl, and in oxycodone group, 4 mg of oxycodone will be administered 20 minutes before the end of the surgery, in triple blind manner.

What is being measured

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

  1. Improving A post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) pain score.

    The visual analogue scale (VAS) will be used for assessment of postoperative pain severity (0 for no pain and 10 for the most severe pain).

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Hemodynamics

    Mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate will be recorded at baseline and every 5 min till the end of procedure.

    Measured: 48 hours

  2. Postoperative side effects

    Any side effects will be documented. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (if occurred) will be treated by intravenous administration of metoclopramide (10mg).

    Measured: 48 hours

  3. Postoperative consumption of opioid

    The overall dose of fentanyl administrated in the first 48 postoperative hours will be documented at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours.

    Measured: 48 hours postoperatively

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing propofol, rocuronium and fentanyl in people with Total Hip Arthroplasty and The Analgesic Efficacy, run by Al-Azhar 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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Improving A post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) pain score. (time frame: 48 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 7 Aug 2023.
