About this study

Official title: Assessment of Analgesic Effect of Ketamine Vs Ketamine Magnesium Infusion and Their Effect on Postoperative Morphine Consumption After Surgical Nephrectomy

Ketamine and magnesium-ketamine are two analgesics that are being studied for use as adjuvants. They were shown to have anaesthetic and analgesic properties, and as a consequence of this finding, it has been postulated that they may have a role in minimising the requirement for analgesic drugs during the postoperative period. The major objective of the research was to examine the pain-relieving effects of ketamine vs ketamine magnesium infusion, as well as their influence on postoperative morphine consumption following nephrectomy; the secondary goal is to assess hemodynamic effects and pain severity.

Read the detailed description

Renal necrosis factor (RN) therapy, which includes ipsilateral adrenalectomy, was first utilized to treat renal cortical tumours in 1969. A radical nephrectomy is a surgical surgery in which the whole kidney, as well as the surrounding fat and, in some cases, the adrenal gland and lymph nodes, are removed. This operation is carried out as an inpatient .

Opioid use, on the other hand, can result in considerable side effects and adverse events, which can result in much longer hospital stays and higher postsurgical hospital costs. Although opioid-based analgesia is essential for postoperative pain management, opioid usage may have serious adverse effects .

Finding techniques to limit opioid intake in the postoperative period is essential because cases that got increased opioid dosages are more likely to have the negative effects. Using non-opioid analgesics alongside opioid analgesics, known as analgesia of multi-modes, to enhance post-operative pain management while reducing the usage of the opioids. .

Ketamine, also and magnesium-ketamine are two analgesics wich are non-opioid that are being studied for use like opioid analgesic adjuvants. They were discovered to have anaesthetic and analgesic properties, and it has been proposed that as a result of this discovery, they may have a great contribution in reducing the need for postoperative analgesic medications .

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of Post-operative Pain

    Assessment of the pain post-operatively in patients with pain score as : Total scores vary from 0 to 10 in this method, with a higher score indicating more severe pain,The Ramsay sedation scale was utilized to gauge postoperative sedation levels.

    Measured: 24-hour analgesic after nephrectomy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ketamine in people with Nephrectomy, run by Egymedicalpedia 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 6 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 27 Oct 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Measurement of Post-operative Pain (time frame: 24-hour analgesic after nephrectomy). 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 Oct 2022.
