About this study
Official title: Premedication Efficacy of Oral Ketorolac and Ketorolac/ Acetaminophen on Post Endodontic Treatment Pain
The aim of this study is premedication efficacy of analgesics on post endodontic pain. Sixty-six healthy adult volunteers including criteria, are participating. The patients will be divided into 3 groups and will be randomly given one of pre medications including 1) 10 mg Ketorolac, 2) 10 mg Ketorolac plus 1000mg Acetaminophen, and 3)Placebo, 45 minutes before applying the injection. All patients will receive standard root canal treatment. Patients will record their post treatment pain using a Heft parker Visual Analog Scale(VAS). Success will be considered as no or mild pain (VAS≤54)with no need to take analgesic. Data will be analysed using Mann-U-Whitney and Kruskal-wallis tests.

The aim of this study is premedication efficacy of analgesics on post endodontic pain. Sixty-six healthy adult volunteers with age ranged 18-65, non smoking or any medicine consumption, non pregnant or break feeding who haven't received any analgesic during 24 hours before the treatment, are participating. The patients will be divided into 3 groups and will be randomly given one of premedications including 1) 10 mg Ketorolac, 2) 10 mg Ketorolac plus 1000mg Acetaminophen, and 3)Placebo, 45 minutes before the treatment. All patients will receive a standard root canal treatment. Patients will record their post treatment pain using a Heft parker Visual Analog Scale(VAS). Success will be considered as no or mild pain (VAS≤54) with no need to take analgesic during 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours intervals following the treatment. Data will be analysed using Mann-U-Whitney and Kruskal-wallis tests.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pain rate change based on visual analog scale(VAS) form
Each patient receives a VAS form and record his/her pain rate on the VAS form whenever he/she feels any pain during each interval after the treatment. If the patient has to take any analgesic, she/he will record the pain rate on that interval and will not continue filling the forms out on the next intervals.
Measured: 6,12,24,and 48 hour intervals

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Ketorolac tromethamine and Acetaminophen in people with Irreversible Pulpitis, run by Azad University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.
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 8 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 20 Sep 2016. 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 Iran. 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 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?
Pain rate change based on visual analog scale(VAS) form (time frame: 6,12,24,and 48 hour intervals). 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 20 Sep 2016.
