What is being measured

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

  1. Degree of pain by visual Analog Scale (VAS) score at rest

    Pain scores will be observed and recorded using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) both at rest and during movement. The scores will be recorded in the ward at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h.

    VAS score from 0 to 10 (0: No pain, 10: The worst pain)

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Degree of pain by visual Analog Scale (VAS) score at movement

    Pain scores will be observed and recorded using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) both at rest and during movement. The scores will be recorded in the ward at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h VAS score from 0 to 10 (0: No pain, 10: The worst pain)

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

  2. Total rescue analgesics consumption

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

  3. The time to first analgesic

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

  4. 24-h morphine consumption

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

  5. Side effects associated with morphine

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Thoracolumbar Interfascial Plane Block (TLIP) and Bilateral Erector Spinae plane Block (ESB) in people with Postoperative Pain and Lumbar Laminectomy, run by Tanta University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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 17 Feb 2021. 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 Egypt. 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Degree of pain by visual Analog Scale (VAS) score at rest (time frame: First 24 hours postoperative). 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 17 Feb 2021.
