About this study

Official title: The Feasibility of Local Anesthesia for Bilateral Orchiectomy : a Randomized Controlled Trial

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare intraoperative pain score, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery, and postoperative complications between SA and SCB groups in metastatic prostate cancer patient. The main question it aims to answer are:

  • Is there a difference in the level of pain during bilateral orchiectomy between spinal anesthesia and spermatic cord block?

Participants will undergo bilateral orchidectomy. They will be randomly assigned to two groups: the group receiving spinal anesthesia and the group receiving spermatic cord block If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare intraoperative pain score, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery, and postoperative complications in both groups of patients.

Read the detailed description

Objective : To compare intraoperative pain score, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery, and postoperative complications between SA and SCB groups.

Material and Method : This Randomized Controlled Trial that collected data from prostate cancer patients who underwent orchiectomy in our institution. Patients were randomly divided into two groups; SA and SCB. Data was collected on intraoperative pain score, 1 hour post-surgery, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery and complications. All data was statistically analyzed using Independent t-test and Fisher's exact test.

Inclusion criteria : Patients of all ages diagnosed with prostate cancer undergoing treatment with bilateral orchiectomy.

Exclusion criteria :

  1. Patients with a history of Xylocaine allergy.
  2. Patients with uncorrected bleeding disorders.
  3. Patients with paralysis or neurosensory deficits
  4. Patients with dementia or cerebrovascular accidents (strokes) that impair communication.
  5. Patients with contraindications for spinal anesthesia, including:
  • Patient refusal of spinal anesthesia.
  • Infection at the site of spinal injection.
  • Allergy to specific types of local anesthetics, such as Hyperbaric bupivacaine.
  • Inability of the patient to cooperate with the spinal anesthetic procedure.
  • Suspicion of high intracranial pressure based on abnormal physical examination.
  • Aortic stenosis with fixed cardiac output.
  • Low platelet count.

What participants receive

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

  • bilateral orchiectomyProcedure or surgery

    Bilateral simple orchiectomy is the surgical removal of both testicles through an incision in the scrotum.

What is being measured

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

  1. intraoperative pain score

    Pain assessment is done using the verbal numerical rating scale, where patients rate their pain level from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 indicating the worst pain imaginable, without using any materials or equipment.

    Measured: Immediate postoperative assessment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. post-operative pain score

    Pain assessment is done using the verbal numerical rating scale, where patients rate their pain level from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 indicating the worst pain imaginable, without using any materials or equipment.

    Measured: 1 hour after surgery

  2. morphine consumption

    Morphine consumption after surgery

    Measured: during 6 and 12 hour after surgery

  3. post-operative complications

    Postoperative complications assessment such as acute urinary retention and neurological complications like radiculopathy, neurological deficits, cauda equina syndrome, and paraplegia.

    Measured: 24 hour after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing bilateral orchiectomy in people with Orchiectomy and Spermatic Cord Block, run by Sanpasitthiprasong Hospital at 1 site in Thailand.

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 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 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 Thailand. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

intraoperative pain score (time frame: Immediate postoperative assessment). 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 15 Mar 2024.
