About this study

Official title: Transdermal Buprenorphine Patch for Postoperative Pain Control in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: a Prospective Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Study

Preliminary studies of the transdermal buprenorphine patch target chronic pain patients, and the pain relief effect and safety have been proven. There are previous reports that the transdermal buprenorphine patch is effective in acute postoperative pain control. However, no clinical studies have yet been reported on its application during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Therefore, we designed this study to see if the use of a transdermal buprenorphine patch resulted in a better pain profile.

Being tested
buprenorphine patch group, placebo group

What is being measured

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

  1. Numeric rating scale pain score at movement

    Pain intensity at rest will be evaluated by an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable pain)

    Measured: 6 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Numeric rating scale pain score at rest

    Pain intensity at rest will be evaluated by an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable pain) 1, 2, 6, 24, and 2 weeks after the surgery.

    Measured: up to 2 weeks after the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing buprenorphine patch group in people with Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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 26 Feb 2024. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Numeric rating scale pain score at movement (time frame: 6 hours after surgery). 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 26 Feb 2024.
