About this study

Official title: ED50 of Intrathecal Hyperbaric 2% Prilocaine in Transperineal Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Transrectal Ultrasound Fusion Guided Biopsy

The aim of the present study was to determine the ED50 and ED90 of intrathecal hyperbaric 2% prilocaine (HP) for patients undergoing ambulatory prostate biopsy via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/ultrasound fusion.

Read the detailed description

Prostate biopsy to diagnose or exclude cancer is currently performed an estimated one million times annually worldwide. In this method, the operator images the prostate using ultrasound, as performed for the past several decades; while thus viewing the prostate, the MRI of that prostate, which is performed beforehand and stored in the device, is fused with real-time ultrasound using a digital overlay, allowing the target(s), previously delineated by a radiologist, to be brought into the aiming mechanism of the ultrasound machine. The fusion results in creation of a three-dimensional reconstruction of the prostate, and on the reconstructed model, the aiming and tracking of biopsy sites occurs. This method needs for sedation/general/ spinal anesthesia because of patient discomfort with the transperineal approach of the biopsy needle passing through the perineum.

Even though the MRI/ultrasound fusión prostate biopsy is widespread used, the anaesthetic techniques for this procedure are not standardised. Hyperbaric prilocaine is an amide-type local anesthetic widely used in short surgical procedures showing its efficacy for outpatient surgery. The proposed intrathecal doses of prilocaine for various surgical procedures range from 10 to 80 mg. Thus, even though the drug is in clinical use, optimal doses of HP required for specific types of surgery warrant further refinement. The aim of the present study was to determine the ED50 and ED90 of intrathecal HP for patients undergoing undergoing ambulatory MRI/ultrasound fusión prostate biopsy.

What participants receive

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

  • Dose of prilocaineDrug

    Also called ED50 of intrathecal hyperbaric prilocaine in ultrasound fusion guided prostate biopsy

    With the patient in the sitting position, spinal anesthesia was performed using the midline approach at the L3-L4; L4-L5 interspace with a spinal needle. The dose of HP that a patient received was determined by the previous patient's response. If successful anesthesia was obtained, the next patient's dose was decreased. The first patient will receive a dose of 20 mg. The dose decrement/increment for each subsequent patient will be set at 2 mg. A nurse blinded to the dose, will assess the sensitive level achieved with each block. Furthermore, all patients will be unaware of the injected dose of HP. For purposes of the study, anesthesia was considered successful when there was complete loss of pinprick and cold sensation at the L1 dermatome. Values of ED 50 will be determined by calculating the midpoint concentration after at least 8 crossover points sufficient/insufficient anesthesia will be obtained. A single measurement will be obtained from each patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. ED50 of intrathecal hyperbaric 2% prilocaine in transperineal magnetic resonance imaging-transrectal ultrasound fusion guided biopsy

    to determine the ED50 and ED90 of intrathecal HP for patients undergoing undergoing ambulatory MRI/ultrasound fusión prostate biopsy.

    Measured: From the baseline, previous to prilocaine adminstration until the end of the prostate biopsy procedure. 30 minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To analyze the hemodynamic response during surgery

    To evaluate the incidence of hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia or tachycardia during the prostate biopsy procedure.

    Measured: From the baseline previous to prilocaine adminstration until the end of the prostate biopsy. 30 minutes

  2. acute urinary retention

    Evaluate the incidence of urinary retention

    Measured: From the baseline previous to prilocaine adminstration until the first 24 hours after the prostate biopsy procedure

  3. length of stay in the facility

    Time to eligibility for home discharge,

    Measured: From the baseline previous to prilocaine adminstration until the patient meets discharge criteria, defined by complete regression of sensory block.

  4. incidence of unplanned admissions

    To know the incidence of patients who cannot be discharged from the unit.

    Measured: From the baseline previous to prilocaine adminstration until the first 24 hours after the prostate biopsy procedure
