About this study

Official title: Efficiency of Oral Etoricoxib Versus Intravenous Fentanyl on Post Operative Pain in Curettage Under TIVA : a Randomized Controlled Trial

Comparison of the efficiency of oral Etoricoxib versus intravenous Fentanyl on post operative Pain in curettage under TIVA: A randomized controlled trial

Read the detailed description

Fractional Curettage is the most widely used for diagnostic and treatment abnormal uterine bleeding. The patient categorize post-operative pain as mild to moderate. Therefore, the effective analgesic added on intraoperative and post-operative is the most important factor in patient's satisfaction, patient well co-operation, shortness time of operation, decrease unpleasant symptoms and rapid recovery. However, there are many anesthetic technique that can be used to relive pain in the operation such as local anesthesia, total intravenous anesthesia, regional anesthesia or oral analgesic drugs.

Intravenous Fentanyl is an short acting opioid. It has a fast onset of action within 2 minutes and short duration of action 30-60 minutes. Respiratory depression, hypotension and bradycardia are adverse effects that might delayed discharge especially in one day surgery e.g. fractional curettage. Etoricoxib is an oral COX-2 specific inhibitor which can be used to relieve the pain. The onset of analgesia can be occurred within 24 minutes which peak plasma level within 60 minutes. There are many empirical evidences to support the results of post-operative pain after used oral Etoricoxib or intravenous Fentanyl. However, there are less evidences to support efficiency of oral Etoricoxib versus intravenous Fentanyl on post-operative Pain in fractional curettage under TIVA

What is being measured

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

  1. post operative pain

    Compare efficacy of oral Etoricoxib and intravenous Fentanyl for post fractional curettage pain by using a visual analog pain scale [Score 0-10]

    Measured: at 60 minute after operation

  2. post operative pain

    Compare efficacy of oral Etoricoxib and intravenous Fentanyl for post fractional curettage pain by using a visual analog pain scale [Score 0-10]

    Measured: at 30 minute after operation

  3. post operative pain

    Compare efficacy of oral Etoricoxib and intravenous Fentanyl for post fractional curettage pain by using a visual analog pain scale [Score 0-10]

    Measured: at 15 minute after operation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse effect from the drugs during and post operation

    Record subject experience of the following symptoms : nausea and vomiting ,dizziness, drowsiness ,allergic reaction ,chest pain ,and gastrointestinal bleeding or gastrointestinal discomfort

    Measured: since subject receive drugs until 60 minutes after procedure

  2. Amount of intravenous Propofol used in the procedure

    Record dose of intravenous Propofol that used in TIVA

    Measured: only intraoperative time

  3. The first time pain reliever was used in post operation

    Record the first time patient asked for post operative pain reliver or visual analog pain score > 5

    Measured: within 60 minutes after the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing fractional curettage in people with Abnormal Uterine Bleeding, run by Department of Medical Services Ministry of Public Health of Thailand at 1 site in Thailand.

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 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
