About this study

Official title: Phase 4 Study of Nasea(R)/Ramosetron Inj.as Anti-emetics in the Patients Undergoing Facial Bone Fracture Operations

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common and distressing complications after anaesthesia and surgery, and may lead to serious postoperative complications This prospective, randomized study designed to evaluate the best injection time to get the prophylactic anti-emetic efficacy of ramosetron, a newly developed 5-HT(3) antagonist in patients undergoing facial bone surgery.

Read the detailed description
  1. Participants
  • 100 patients with undergoing facial bone surgery are going to be randomly allocated to one of the 3 groups
  1. Randomization
  • G1(n=33) - Ramosetron 0.3mg i.v. just before the beginning of the surgery
  • G2(n=33) - Ramosetron 0.3mg i.v. just after the end of the surgery and moving into the Recovery room
  • G3(n=33) - No medication but regular antiemetics i.v. if the patient wants
  1. The primary endpoint
  • the incidence of nausea and vomiting for 24 h after surgery at 0-6h, 6-12 h and 12-24 h
  1. The secondary endpoints
  • the severity of nausea, need for rescue medication
  • patient satisfaction with efficacy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ramosetron in people with Facial Bones Fracture, 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 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2015. 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. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Principal Investigator is away on business). 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?

incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting (time frame: for 24 h after surgery at 0-6h, 6-12 h and 12-24 h). 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 8 May 2015.
