About this study

Official title: Assessment of Flurbiprofen Tablet and Spray For Postoperative Pain Control In Oral Soft Tissue Wounds: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The amount of active ingredient in tablet form of flurbiprofen is higher than that in the oral spray form. Therefore, based on the hypothesis that the side effects that may occur depending on the dose can be reduced, this clinical study investigated whether tablet and spray form flurbiprofen would have similar effects on postoperative pain in primarily closed soft tissue wounds in the oral region.

Read the detailed description

In line with the number of patients obtained after sample size calculation, the study was completed on 40 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Patients were healthy, volunteer individuals who required excision of the epulis fissuratum or frenulum with the indication of preprosthetic surgery. 2 groups were formed by simple randomization with 20 patients in the tablet group and 20 patients in the spray group. After the surgical procedure, tablet and spray flurbiprofen were prescribed according to the groups. Apart from these, paracetamol, chlorhexidine gluconate + benzidamine hydrochloride mouthwash were prescribed to all patients as rescue analgesics. The tissue fragments removed from the patients who underwent epulis excision were sent for histopathologic evaluation and confirmed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative pain evaluation with Numeric Rating Scale scores

    The effect of analgesics used in the groups on the level of pain in Numeric Rating Scale (The pain intensity was assessed on a 0-10 ranking scale with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 "most severe pain" ) after soft tissue surgery was investigated.

    Measured: One week (3, 6, 24, 48, and 72 hours and on the 5th and 7th days)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rescue analgesic intake

    It was investigated whether rescue analgesics were needed in the groups

    Measured: One week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Flurbiprofen in people with Oral Soft Tissue Conditions and Drug Effect, run by Yuzuncu Yil University 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 26 Jul 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 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.

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?

Postoperative pain evaluation with Numeric Rating Scale scores (time frame: One week (3, 6, 24, 48, and 72 hours and on the 5th and 7th days)). 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 Jul 2024.
