Trial summary

Postoperative pain is generally caused by inflammation and oedema related to tissue trauma. Surgical tissue trauma is caused by many factors such as cotery-related burns, surgical incisions, dissections, and instrumental procedures like cutting, stretching, or compression.

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Efficacy of Tenoxicam, Paracetamol (Acetaminophen), and Tenoxicam-Paracetamol Combination on Postoperative Pain in Double-Jaw Surgery Patients

Postoperative pain is generally caused by inflammation and oedema related to tissue trauma. Surgical tissue trauma is caused by many factors such as cotery-related burns, surgical incisions, dissections, and instrumental procedures like cutting, stretching, or compression.

The pain stimulus is triggered by mediators released by the traumatic tissue and transmitted to the spinal cord and then to the upper centres of the brain. Tenoxicam is an analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic drug with a long duration of action, included in the oxicam subgroup of NSAIDs. Tenoxicam has been studied and found effective for many rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, extra-articular disorders, bursitis, tendonitis, and osteoarthritis. The primary aim of this study was to compare the effects of tenoxicam, paracetamol, and tenoxicam-paracetamol combination analgesic applications on the postoperative VAS score of double-jaw surgery patients. The secondary aim was to investigate the effects of these interventions on the number of both opioid and rescue analgesic drug consumption postoperatively.

What is being measured

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

  1. The effects of tenoxicam, paracetamol, and tenoxicam-paracetamol combination on the postoperative 30th minute, first hour and 2th hour VAS (Visual Analog Scale) of double-jaw surgery patients.

    VAS ( Pain intensity was assessed on a 100-mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where 0 = no pain and 100 = worst possible pain

    Measured: at the first hour

  2. The effects of tenoxicam, paracetamol, and tenoxicam-paracetamol combination

    VAS ( Pain intensity was assessed on a 100-mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where 0 = no pain and 100 = worst possible pain

    Measured: at the second hour

  3. The effects of tenoxicam, paracetamol, and tenoxicam-paracetamol combination

    VAS ( Pain intensity was assessed on a 100-mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where 0 = no pain and 100 = worst possible pain

    Measured: at the 24th hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The secondary efficacy variable was the number of opioid and rescue drug consumptions during the postoperative 24 hours.

    Measured: during the postoperative 24 hours.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The effects of tenoxicam, paracetamol, and tenoxicam-paracetamol combination on the postoperative 30th minute, first hour and 2th hour VAS (Visual Analog Scale) of double-jaw surgery patients. (time frame: at the first hour). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?
