About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Effects of Erector Spinae Area (ESP) Block and Mid-Transverse Process to Pleura Block(MTP) on Postoperative Opioid Consumption and Quality of Recovery in Lumbar Spinal Surgery

Erector Spinae Area (ESP) Block and Mid-Transverse Process to Pleura Block(MTP) have recently been described for the treatment of pain after lumbar spinal surgery. Although these blocks have been shown to be effective in the treatment of pain after lumbar spinal surgery when compared with postoperative pain, they have not been compared in terms of the quality of recovery and opioid consumption after lumbar spinal surgery.

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of Erector Spinae Area (ESP) Block and Mid-Transverse Process to Pleura Block(MTP) on quality of recovery and opioid consumption in patients scheduled for lumbar spinal surgery. The effects of the 2 blocks on postoperative pain will also be compared and recorded.

Being tested
Numeretic rating scale (NRS), Quality of Results (QoR-40), Opioid consuption
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • Numeretic rating scale (NRS)Diagnostic test

    NRS is a pain intensity determination system based on the person being asked to describe their pain on a scale of 0 (none), 10 (unbearable pain) and a point between.

  • Quality of Results (QoR-40)Diagnostic test

    Several rating scales have been developed to measure quality of recovery after surgery and anaesthesia, but the most extensively used is the QoR-40, a 40-item questionnaire that provides a global score and subscores across five dimensions: patient support, comfort, emotions, physical independence, and pain.

  • Opioid consuptionOther

    Opioid consuption will be recorded from PCA

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative opioid consumption

    The patient will be administered tramadol PCA every eight hours and recorded.

    Measured: PCA results will be recorded at the 1st, 6th, 12th, 24th hours postoperatively.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. quality of recovery

    The quality of recovery (QoR-40) of patients who underwent both ESP block and MTP block at the 24th hour postoperatively will be evaluated with a scoring system.

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Numeretic rating scale (NRS), Quality of Results (QoR-40) and Opioid consuption in people with Opioid Consumption and Quality of Recovery(QoR-40), Preoperative and Postoperative, run by Aydin Adnan Menderes University.

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sinem Sarı, Prof Dr (90 256 220 2108, sarisinem@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative opioid consumption (time frame: PCA results will be recorded at the 1st, 6th, 12th, 24th hours postoperatively.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06815146, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 7 Feb 2025.
