About this study

Official title: International Multicentre Prospective Study on Morphine-induced Adverse Drug Reactions in Emergency Departments: Description and Predictive Factors.

Morphine is the gold standard for treatment of severe acute pain but it has a number of adverse effects.

No study has so far managed to identify the morphine-induced adverse drug reactions. The primary objective of this study is to determine predictive factors of morphine-induced adverse drug reaction when it is used in emergency departments.

Read the detailed description

We want to study a large cohort of morphine-induced adverse drug reactions patients, the consequences for patients, mainly in terms of severity, and predictive criteria. This will allow us to identify some patients most at risk of morphine-induced adverse drug reactions, and thus to adapt morphine titration and monitoring of these patients. Leading to a better understanding and a better prediction of adverse effects in patients, it is possible that part of the "opiophobia" which persists in emergency services disappear. Finally, it is toward a better security but also a better efficiency in the management of pain patients in emergencies that leads this study.

The secondary objectives are:

To determine the frequency and severity of adverse events related to morphine. To establish an inventory of morphine use in emergency departments in the different centres studied.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of morphine related adverse-event

    The primary outcome variable will be defined as occurrence of morphine related adverse-event (including nausea, dizziness, emesis, drowsiness, pruritus, respiratory distress and death)

    Measured: From the administration of morphine until 6 hours after this first administration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Description of adverse effects caused by morphine

    Description of adverse effects caused by morphine, initial and final pain scores and support given by centres. Imputability scores will be evaluated for each event.

    Measured: For each side effects of morphine from the first administration of morphine until 6 hours after.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Emergencies, 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 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.

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?

Occurrence of morphine related adverse-event (time frame: From the administration of morphine until 6 hours after this first 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 23 Feb 2017.
