About this study

Official title: A Single Center, Prospective Randomized Double-blind Trial: Efficacy of Nefopam and Morphine in Balanced Analgesia for Acute Ureteric Colic

This study is to see whether the combination regimen of ketorolac and nefopam is superior to that of ketorolac and morphine in controlling ureter stone-related acute flank pain.

Read the detailed description

The balanced analgesia regimen using both ketorolac and morphine is the most effective choice in controlling urolithiasis related acute pain. Previous animal and human studies reported that combination regimen of ketoprofen and nefopam showed synergistic effect in pain control. We hypothesized that using nefopam instead of morphine for ketorolac based combination analgesia will produce similar pain reduction without causing opioid-related side effect.

What participants receive

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

  • Ketorolac and nefopam balanced analgesiaDrug

    Sequential intravenous administration of ketorolac and nefopam

  • Balanced analgesia using ketorolac and morphineDrug

    Sequential intravenous administration of ketorolac and morphine

  • Pain control with single analgesics (ketorolac)Drug

    This arm do not use balanced analgesia. Instead, ketorolac IV administration followed by 50cc normal saline administration (for blinding) will be used in this group.

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

  1. Amount of pain reduction by visual analog pain scale

    Measured: At 30 and 60 minutes after primary study drug administration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Additional analgesia requested by enrolled patients

    Measured: At 30 and 60 minutes after primary study drug administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ketorolac and nefopam balanced analgesia and Balanced analgesia using ketorolac and morphine in people with Renal Colic, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 10 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 17 Dec 2012. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Kyuseok Kim, MD (82-31-787-3049, dremkks@snubh.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Amount of pain reduction by visual analog pain scale (time frame: At 30 and 60 minutes after primary study drug administration). 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 17 Dec 2012.
