About this study

Official title: Determination of the 90% Effective Dose of a Sufentanil Bolus in Analgesia During Lateral Decubitus of Mechanically Ventilated Patients.

Mechanically ventilated patients experiencing pain are frequent in intensive care units (ICU) however their treatment remains unclear. This prospective pharmacodynamic study relates to the analgesia of procedural pains. The primary objective was to determine the 90% effective dose (ED) of a sufentanil bolus to obtain a satisfactory analgesia (defined by a Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) at 3 or 4) during lateral decubitus (LD) of mechanically ventilated patients.

Material and Method. Patients who, at rest before the 48th hour of mechanical ventilation, reach the objectives of BPS at 3 or 4 and Ramsay sedation score between 3 and 5, were included.

During a 72h evaluation phase, BPS was used to measure the efficiency of a bolus of sufentanil on the analgesia of the LD. The dose of this bolus was raised gradually every new LD until BPS was at 3 or 4.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sufentanil in people with Pain, run by University Hospital, Toulouse at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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 11 May 2017. 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 France. 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?

The effective dose (ED) of a sufentanil bolus to obtain a satisfactory analgesia (defined by a Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) at 3 or 4) (time frame: five days). 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 NCT01356732, 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 11 May 2017.
