Trial summary

Lipoabdominoplasty and liposuction are one of the most common plastic surgeries. The management of postoperative pain is complex. Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are insufficient, while opioids are avoided by their adverse effects and regional techniques are hampered by a premature discharge.

About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Ketamine and Magnesium Association in the Postoperative Pain After Liposuction and Lipoabdominoplasty: Prospective, Randomized and Blinded Study

Lipoabdominoplasty and liposuction are one of the most common plastic surgeries. The management of postoperative pain is complex. Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are insufficient, while opioids are avoided by their adverse effects and regional techniques are hampered by a premature discharge. In this context, the investigators seek an intraoperative multimodal analgesic technique blocking NMDA receptors with ketamine plus magnesium to significantly decrease postoperative pain.

Being tested
Saline, Ketamine, Ketamine + magnesium
Keywords
Ketamine, Magnesium, Analgesia, Liposuction, Lipoabdominoplasty, Preemptive analgesia

What is being measured

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

  1. Opioids consumption

    Measured: 12 h after surgery

  2. Postoperative Pain (Postoperative Pain and Disability Scale)

    Postoperative Pain and Disability Scale (Body-PPDS) will be used to quantify pain

    Measured: 2, 7, 14, 21, 45 and 90 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Early postoperative pain (Visual analogue pain scale)

    Visual analogue pain scale (0-10) will be used to quantify pain

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 h after surgery

  2. Early postoperative pain (Time to first request for supplemental analgesia)

    Time to first request for supplemental analgesia.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Disability (Time delay in returning to work)

    Time delay in returning to work.

    Measured: 90 days

  4. Postoperative Chronic Pain (McGill scale)

    McGill scale for chronic painwill be used to quantify pain

    Measured: Day after surgery, 7, 30 and 90 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Saline, Ketamine and Ketamine + magnesium in people with Pain, Postoperative, run by University of Chile at 1 site in Chile.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 2 May 2018. 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 Chile. 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.

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?

Opioids consumption (time frame: 12 h after surgery). The study lists 2 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 2 May 2018.
