About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Compound Betamethasone Injection Combined With Ropivacaine in Ultrasound-guided Slit Intercostals Nerve Block for Chronic Post-thoracotomy Pain:A Single Blind Randomized Control Trial

The patients were divided into two groups by random number method: GroupRD1 group and GroupRD2 group were given general anesthesia and intercostal nerve block.The drug for intercostal nerve block was 0.33% ropivacaine +2.333mg compound betamethasone (1.667mg betamethasone dipropionate + 0.667mg betamethasone sodium phosphate) to 15ml.

Read the detailed description

The RD1 group received ultrasound-guided intercostal nerve block at the incision before anesthesia induction, and the RD2 group received ultrasound-guided intercostal nerve block at the lateral costal Angle before anesthesia induction.

Conditions
Nerve Block
Being tested
intercostal nerve block, lateral intercostal nerve block, ropivacaine + compound betamethasone

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intercostal nerve block, lateral intercostal nerve block and ropivacaine + compound betamethasone in people with Nerve Block, run by Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 27 Sep 2022. 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 China. 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?

Contact YiBin Qin (13815212600, 572537172@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acute and chronic postoperative pain (time frame: 6 hours after surgery). The study lists 5 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?

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 27 Sep 2022.
