About this study

Official title: Systemic Intraoperative Lidocaine Infusion for Postoperative Pain Management in Obese Patients: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Pilot Study

The primary objective is to assess the feasibility and safety of administering continuous intraoperative lidocaine infusions in adult patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux en Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB). The secondary objective is to determine if lidocaine administration versus placebo (dextrose administration) (initiated at the time of anesthesia induction and continued until extubation) will reduce postoperative narcotic requirements.

Being tested
Lidocaine, Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative Pain

    Analysis of patient outcome will involve a series of visual analogue scale pain evaluations during mobilization, coughing, and resting. VAS, 0 cm as no pain - 10 cm as maximum pain

    Measured: 6 hours post-surgery

  2. Postoperative Pain

    Analysis of patient outcome will involve a series of visual analogue scale (VAS, 0 cm as no pain - 10 cm as maximum pain) pain evaluations during mobilization, coughing, and resting

    Measured: 12 hours post-surgery

  3. Postoperative Pain

    Analysis of patient outcome will involve a series of visual analogue scale (VAS, 0 cm as no pain - 10 cm as maximum pain) pain evaluations during mobilization, coughing, and resting

    Measured: 18 hours post-surgery

  4. Postoperative Pain

    Analysis of patient outcome will involve a series of visual analogue scale pain evaluations during mobilization, coughing, and resting. VAS, 0 cm as no pain - 10 cm as maximum pain

    Measured: 24 hours post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lidocaine in people with Bariatric Surgical Pain, run by University of South Florida at 1 site in United States.

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 26 Oct 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 United States. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Oct 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Postoperative Pain (time frame: 6 hours post-surgery). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 26 Oct 2017.
