About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of dezocine pretreatment on dexamethasone 21-phosphate induced perineal irritation (include pian and pruritus).

Read the detailed description

Dexamethasone is a synthetic glucocorticoid, which may cause perineal irritation when given intravenously. The major clinical manifestations are pruritus and pain,and the incidence vary between 38%-71%. Some patients undergo spontaneous remission, while others develop into severe pain or pruritus. Dezocine, a new synthetic opiate agonist-antagonist, has been used for the treatment of pain and pruritus, but its role in relieving dexamethasone induced perineal irritation has not been studied yet. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of dezocine pretreatment on dexamethasone induced perineal irritation.

What is being measured

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

  1. The occurrence of perineal irritation after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate among Group D (40 patients receive dezocine 0.1 mg/Kg) and Group C (40 patients receive matching placebo)

    Measured: In the first 3 min period after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate phosphate

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The severity of perineal irritation after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate among Group D (40 patients receive dezocine 0.1 mg/Kg) and Group C (40 patients receive matching placebo)

    Measured: In the first 3 min period after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate phosphate

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dezocine and normal saline in people with Adverse Effect, run by General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 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 China. 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?

The occurrence of perineal irritation after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate among Group D (40 patients receive dezocine 0.1 mg/Kg) and Group C (40 patients receive matching placebo) (time frame: In the first 3 min period after the injection of dexamethasone 21-phosphate phosphate). 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 3 Aug 2016.
