What participants receive

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

  • erector spinae plane block (ESP)Procedure or surgery

    nerve block for abdominal pain. administered once immediately prior to spinal anesthetic standard of care.

  • DuramorphDrug

    100 micrograms (mcg) of morphine administered in the spinal medications one time.

  • RopivacaineDrug

    Ropivacaine 0.5% between 20-40 milliliters will be administered once in the ESP block (in the spine) depending on patient weight to keep under the maximum dose.

  • Bupivacaine InjectionDrug

    Bupivacaine 0.75% 1.4-1.7 milliliters (10-12 milligrams) spinal medication. administered one time.

What is being measured

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

  1. post-operative opioid analgesic medication

    measurement (milligrams)

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. change in post-operative pain medication by visual analog scale

    Patient administered instrument to indicate pain on a level from 0 to10. (0: no pain. 10: worst imaginable pain)

    Measured: baseline, up to 24 hours

  2. number of minutes to first use of rescue medication

    the number of minutes calculated using the kaplan-meier. Calculated using the number of patients that did not need the rescue analgesic at the start of each day post-surgery, and the number of patients who needed the rescue analgesic.

    Measured: up to 24 hours

  3. obstetric quality of recovery scale

    responses range from 0-10. zero is strongly agree, strongly disagree.

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing erector spinae plane block (ESP), Duramorph and Ropivacaine in people with Post-operative Pain, run by University of Miami.

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 8 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

post-operative opioid analgesic medication (time frame: up to 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 19 Sep 2024.
