About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of 5% Lidocaine Patch for Postoperative Pain in Unilateral Inguinal Herniorrhaphy

The lidocaine patch is currently only permitted for post herpetic neuralgia but the investigators want to study its effectiveness in post operative pain after inguinal herniorrhaphy

Read the detailed description

After open unilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy, patients are randomly divided into group L and group P groups. Group L attaches two lidocaine patches for 12 hours, above and below the incision site. Group P attaches two placebo patches for 12 hours, above and below the incision site. Pain scores are recorded for 30 minutes, 2 hours, 24 hours, and 1 week after surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Group L in people with Acute Pain, run by BON WOOK KOO at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 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 South Korea. 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 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 pain score (time frame: 24 hours after the anesthesia finished.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04754451, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Dec 2023.
