Trial summary

In our study, we aimed to calculate the ideal measurement of the distance of the erector spina muscle to the skin and to find the best ultrasonography image at different thoracic levels (T1-T2, T5-T6, T5-T6, T11-T12) and in other positions (lateral-sitting-pron) to improve the quality of the block in patients who will… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Distance of the Erector Spina Muscle From the Skin at Different Thoracal Levels and Different posıtıons Under Ultrasonography

In our study, we aimed to calculate the ideal measurement of the distance of the erector spina muscle to the skin and to find the best ultrasonography image at different thoracic levels (T1-T2, T5-T6, T5-T6, T11-T12) and in other positions (lateral-sitting-pron) to improve the quality of the block in patients who will undergo erector spina plan block.

Our primary goal is to determine which thoracic level the erector spinae muscle is closer to the skin and whether the USG screen image is better. Our secondary goal is to find out in which position the erector spinae muscle is closer to the skin and the USG screen image is better.

Read the detailed description

1- Abstract Introduction Erector spina plana block can be performed in different positions (sitting-lateral-pron) and at different thoracic levels. In our study, we aimed to calculate the ideal measurement of the distance of the erector spina muscle to the skin and to find the best ultrasonography image at different thoracic levels (T1-T2, T5-T6, T5-T6, T11-T12) and in other positions (lateral-sitting-pron) to improve the quality of the block in patients who will undergo erector spina plan block. Material and Methods A total of 80 patients (40 females and 40 males, ASA I-II) aged 18-65 years were included in the study. The erector spinae muscle was determined at T1-T2, T5-T6, and T11-T12 levels and in lateral, sitting, and prone positions, respectively, with a high frequency 10-15 millihertz linear probe of ultrasound, The distance from the skin to the midline of the ultrasound screen was measured, and the best ultrasound screen image was recorded. Erector spina plan block, distance measurement, different positions, interfascial plan block.

    Comparison of the distance of the Erector Spina muscle from the skin at different thoracal levels and different posıtıons under ultrasonography

What is being measured

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

  1. distance of the erector spinae muscle from the skin in millimeters

    Our primary goal is to determine which thoracic level the erector spinae muscle is closer to the skin and whether the USG screen image is better.

    Measured: two years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. clarity of the erector spinae muscle in different positions

    Our secondary goal is to find out in which position the erector spinae muscle is closer to the skin and the USG screen image is better.

    Measured: two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pain, Postoperative and Pain, Back, run by Konya City Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 13 Nov 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

distance of the erector spinae muscle from the skin in millimeters (time frame: two years). 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 13 Nov 2023.
