Trial summary

Postoperative pain is a significant postoperative problem and it could be persistent if proper management is not provided. However, each patient shows different intensity of pain and different sensitivity to analgesics even if they underwent same procedures. Read more about this study

About this study

Postoperative pain is a significant postoperative problem and it could be persistent if proper management is not provided. However, each patient shows different intensity of pain and different sensitivity to analgesics even if they underwent same procedures. Therefore, it would be useful to find the way to predict the postoperative pain sensitivity.

Propofol, a popular anesthetic agent, induces pain during injection, which can not completely prevented by opioid or lidocaine in some patients. This is considered to be related to patient's pain sensitivity and it might be associated with postoperative pain sensitivity.

Therefore, the relation of propofol injection pain and postoperative pain intensity will be explored.

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative pain intensity_1

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 10 min after postanesthesia care unit admission

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. postoperative pain intensity_2

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 20 min after postanesthesia care unit admission

  2. postoperative pain intensity_3

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 30 min after postanesthesia care unit admission

  3. postoperative pain intensity_4

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 4 hours after operation

  4. postoperative pain intensity_8

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 8 hours after operation

  5. postoperative pain intensity_12

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 12 hours after operation

  6. postoperative pain intensity_24

    Postoperative pain will be evaluated with verbal numeric scale (0-10)

    Measured: 24 hours after operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cholecystitis, Acute, run by Ajou University School of Medicine.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

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?

postoperative pain intensity_1 (time frame: 10 min after postanesthesia care unit admission). 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 16 Jan 2017.
