About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Extended-release, Once Daily Tramadol for Post Operative in Ambulatory Shoulder Arthroscopy

The investigators hypothesize that the use of tramadol will reduce pain and analgesic consumption after arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of tramadol long acting for post operative pain in patients who had an arthroscopic shoulder surgery in ambulatory setting in comparison with a placebo. The intensity of pain was evaluated on a visual analog scale as the quantity of hydromorphone taken by patients, and the side effects during the first 72 hours.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing tramadol in people with Pain and Vertigo, run by Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 24 Jul 2020. 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 Canada. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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. 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?

quantity of hydromorphone consumed (time frame: 3 days). 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 24 Jul 2020.
