About this study

Official title: A Randomized Control Trial Evaluating the Utility of Multimodal Opioid-free Anesthesia on Return of Bowel Function in Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

The objective of this study is to determine if an opioid-free general anesthetic (OFA) technique utilizing lidocaine, ketamine, dexmedetomidine and magnesium reduce postoperative opioid consumption and speed return of bowel function in patients undergoing elective, laparoscopic, colorectal surgery compared to traditional opioid-containing general anesthetic techniques. It is hypothesized that this intraoperative OFA regimen will reduce postoperative opioid consumption, and expedite return of bowel function in this population.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this trial is to determine whether an opioid-free general anesthetic can help reduce postoperative opioid consumption and speed return of bowel function in patients undergoing elective, laparoscopic, colorectal surgery when compared with traditional opioid-containing techniques.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to first flatus

    Time between the end of surgery and the movement when the patient first passes flatus

    Measured: End of surgery to first flatus (1-4 days)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Time to first defecation

    Time between the end of surgery and the moment the patient first passes stool

    Measured: End of surgery to first defecation (1-7 days)

  2. Time to tolerance of oral intake

    Time between the end of surgery to when the patient can tolerate any oral solid food intake

    Measured: End of surgery to first oral intake (1-3 days)

  3. Total Post-Anesthetic Care Unit (PACU) opioid consumption

    Total amount of opioid (morphine equivalents) required in PACU

    Measured: End of surgery to discharge from PACU (1-2 hours)

  4. Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) morphine consumption

    Total amount of PCA morphine (mg) required from end of surgery to 48 hours postoperatively

    Measured: End of surgery to 48 hours postoperatively

  5. Time to Post-Anesthetic Care Unit (PACU) discharge readiness

    Time to Post-Anesthetic Care Unit (PACU) discharge readiness

    Measured: End of surgery to PACU discharge readiness (1-3 hours)

  6. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores

    Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores will be recorded on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no pain, and 10 indicating extreme pain, 48 hours following surgery

    Measured: End of surgery to 48 hours postoperatively

  7. Quality of recovery after surgery

    Assessed using the Quality of Recovery (QoR) 15 questionnaire, a validated tool for measuring quality of recovery after anesthesia and surgery

    Measured: End of surgery to time of patient discharge from hospital (2-10 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Acetaminophen, Gabapentin, Lidocaine 1% Injectable Solution, Dexmedetomidine, Ketamine and Dexamethasone, Ondansetron in people with Anesthesia and General Anesthesia, run by University of Saskatchewan at 1 site in Canada.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2023. 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 Canada. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Jonathan Gamble, MD (306-655-1183, jonathan.gamble@saskhealthauthority.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to first flatus (time frame: End of surgery to first flatus (1-4 days)). 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 Dec 2023.
