About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Intraoperative Injections on Postoperative Pain Control During Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective, Blinded, Randomized Controlled Study

The purpose of this study is to clarify the efficacy of a multidrug versus single drug periarticular injection when only standard operative and postoperative pain management protocols used and the control group is exposed to what our investigators believe is the standard of care, single medication periarticular injection

Read the detailed description

Study Objectives The intraoperative periarticular injection of 300 mg of 0.5% ropivacaine, 30 mg ketorolac, 200 mcg epinephrine, and 100 mcg clonidine in a 100 mL 0.9% saline solution will be compared to an injection of 30 mL of a 0.25% solution bupivacaine with ORA: 15101602-IRB01 Date IRB Approved: 3/16/2016 epinephrine and 30 mL 0.25% bupivacaine without epinephrine as an intraoperative periarticular joint injection protocol. The study's data collection timeline begins at the pre-operative clinic visit. Data collection continues through the patient's discharge after the surgical procedure and until the first year postoperative visit examination of joint range of motion and patient satisfaction questionnaires.

Primary Objectives:

The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of a multidrug versus bupivacaine intraoperative injection in decreasing total hip arthroplasty postoperative pain. To determine this, postoperative analgesic consumption will be collected for each patient and the value when converted to morphine equivalents will be compared between cohorts.

Analysis of morphine equivalent values at various postoperative time intervals (0-6 hours, 6-12 hours, 12-18, 18-24, then each postoperative day) and total morphine equivalent consumption for the entire length of stay will be performed between treatment cohorts.

Secondary Objectives:

To establish the improvement in postoperative pain relief provided by intraoperative periarticular injection of our multidrug protocol versus bupivacaine, other data points will be collected. The physical therapy milestones including time to first get out of bed, time to ambulation with or without assistance, time to climb stairs, and time to active straight leg raise will all be collected. The zero time point will be the end of the operation. Pain scale scores during physical therapy sessions with physiotherapists will also be recorded.

Resting visual analog scores for pain assessment will be collected as the patient representing their pain on a scale from 0 to 100 mm. The VAS values will be collected at various postoperative time values until discharge. The length of hospital stay will be collected as well. Opioid side effects will also be collected including over sedation, respiratory depression, urinary retention, and constipation. Other data collected will include operation time, wound complications, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative drain output. At the 6 weeks postoperative visit, patient satisfaction questionnaires will be collected compared to preoperative visit values.

What is being measured

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

  1. Record narcotic usage, in morphine equivalents, during postoperative inpatient hospital stay.

    Narcotic usage

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of hospital discharge or the date of 10 days after surgery, whichever date comes first

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Record time to achieve physical therapy milestones during inpatient physical therapy

    Time to achieve physical therapy milestones

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of hospital discharge or the date of 10 days after surgery, whichever date comes first

  2. Record VAS values during postoperative period

    VAS values

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bupivicaine + epinephrine, Bupivacaine and Ropivacaine in people with Osteoarthritis and Degenerative Joint Disease, run by Rush University Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2022. 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 United States. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Record narcotic usage, in morphine equivalents, during postoperative inpatient hospital stay. (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of hospital discharge or the date of 10 days after surgery, whichever date comes first). 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 27 Oct 2022.
