About this study

Official title: Comparison of Infraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block and Local Anesthesia in Arteriovenous Fistula Surgeries and Their Effects on Tissue Oxygen Saturation With Near-infrared Spectroscopy

In arteriovenous fistula surgery, the effect of infraclavicular brachial plexus block and local anesthesia on tissue oxygenation and the effect of primary patency of the AV fistula is intended to research.

Read the detailed description

It is planned to include patients who are American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) III and between the ages of 18-80 who will undergo arteriovenous fistula surgery in the research population.In our study, patients who come to the operating room for arteriovenous fistula operation will be randomly divided into two groups.Patients who undergo simple randomization with coin toss method will be assigned to one of two groups: group Local infiltrative anesthesia (Local) and group infraclavicular brachial plexus block with 0.25% bupivacaine (Block). Local infiltrative anesthesia will be applied with 15 ml 2% prilocaine for group Local patients.For Group Block patients, 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine will be applied with Infraclavicular approach around brachial plexus with inplane technique.Before the start of surgery, NIRS probes will be placed on the thenar ,antecubital regions of both hands and arms .The preoperative observed values and data of every 5 minutes during the operation will be recorded .

What participants receive

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

  • NIRSDevice

    Near Infra-Red Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive monitoring modality which measures regional tissue oxygenation defined as percentage (%).

  • Pinprick TestOther

    With the pinprick test, the practitioner gently touches the skin with the pin and asks the patient whether it feels sharp or blunt .Test begins distally and then move proximally (aiming to test each dermatome and each main nerve).

    Assessment of sensorial blockade uses 3 grade system. Grade 0.Sharp pain Grade 1.Analgesia ,numbness Grade 2.Anesthesia ,no feeling

  • Modified Bromage ScaleOther

    Assessment of motor blockade uses 4 point Modified Bromage Score. 0.Normal motor function with full extension and flexion of elbow, wrist and fingers

    1. Decreased motor strengths with ability to full flexion elbow and move fingers but inability to raise arm
    2. More decreased motor strengths with inability to move elbow but ability to move fingers 3.Complete motor block with inability to move elbow, wrist, and fingers.
  • BupivacaineDrug

    Also called Marcaine, Sensorcaine

    Bupivacaine is a potent local anesthetic with unique characteristics from the amide group of local anesthetics.

  • PrilocaineDrug

    Also called Citanest, Propitocaine, Xylonest

    Prilocaine is an amide local anesthetic secondary amine with an intermediate length of duration and quick onset of action.

Study groups in NCT06416111
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Local group(Group L)Active comparatorLocal infiltrative anesthesia will be applied with 15 ml 2% prilocaine for Local group patients.Before surgery, NIRS probes will be placed on the thenar, antecubital regions of both hands and arms .The peripheral regional oxygen saturation values will be recorded preoperatively and every 5 minutes during the operation. Surgeon and patient satisfaction will be evaluated by 5 Point Likert Scale (worst: 1 point, best: 5 points) at the end of the surgery.
Receives: Device: NIRS; Drug: Prilocaine
Block group(Group B)Active comparatorFor Block group patients, 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine will be applied with Infraclavicular approach around brachial plexus with inplane technique.The effect of the peripheral nerve block will be evaluated with 10-minute intervals until regional anesthesia is achieved.Sensory block will be evaluated with the "Pinprick Test" and motor block with the "Modified Bromage Scale". For patients who underwent a block, Grade 2 on the "Pinprick Test" and Grade 3 on the "Modified Bromage Scale" were considered suitable anesthesia conditions for the operation. Before surgery, NIRS probes will be placed on the thenar, antecubital regions of both hands and arms .The peripheral regional oxygen saturation values will be recorded preoperatively and every 5 minutes during the operation. Surgeon and patient satisfaction will be evaluated by 5 Point Likert Scale (worst: 1 point, best: 5 points) at the end of the surgery.
Receives: Device: NIRS; Other: Pinprick Test; Other: Modified Bromage Scale; Drug: Bupivacaine

What is being measured

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

  1. tissue oxygenation

    To compare the effects of infraclavicular brachial plexus block and local infiltrative anesthesia on tissue oxygenation during arteriovenous fistula (AVF) surgeries.

    Near Infra-Red Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive monitoring modality which measures regional tissue oxygenation defined as percentage (%).Before surgery, NIRS probes will be placed on the thenar, antecubital regions of both hands and arms .

    Measured: beginning and every 5 minutes till the end of surgery

  2. primary patency of the arteriovenous fistula

    To compare the effects of infraclavicular brachial plexus block and local infiltrative anesthesia on the primary patency of the arteriovenous fistula

    Measured: 1 month after the operation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 5 Point Likert Scale

    Surgeon and patient satisfaction will be evaluated by 5 Point Likert Scale at the end of surgery.

    1 point:Dissatisfaction; 5 point:Fully satisfied

    Measured: at the end of the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NIRS, Pinprick Test and Modified Bromage Scale in people with Renal Disease, Chronic, run by Ankara City Hospital Bilkent 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 10 Jan 2025. 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?

tissue oxygenation (time frame: beginning and every 5 minutes till the end of surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 10 Jan 2025.
