About this study

This study aims to examine the effects of M-TAPA applied for postoperative analgesia in patients who had major intraabdominal surgery on the postoperative pain score, the change in the postoperative total opioid requirement and the side effects.

Read the detailed description

The investigators seperated the patients into two groups as M-TAPA applied group and control group.In group M-TAPA, M-TAPA block was performed bilaterally with 20 mL of 0.2% bupivacaine under ultrasound guidance at the end of surgery. No block was performed in the control group. The participants were administered morphine through patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pump with a bolus dose of 1 mg, 15 min lockout interval. The postoperative pain scores (the numeric rating scores (NRS)), total opiod consumption in the first 48 h, and opioid related side effects were recorded.

Study groups in NCT06384677
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
M-Tapa + IV PCA applied groupOtherAfter appropriate skin disinfection, the transversus abdominis, internal oblique and external oblique muscles were determined with a high-frequency linear probe (Esaote) at the costochondral angle in the sagittal plane under ultrasound guidance at the 10th costal border. A 21-G, 80-mm peripheral block needle was placed in the cranial direction using the in-plane technique, the needle tip did not exceed the cranial edge of the 10th costal cartilage, and 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine was applied to the lower surface of the chondrium on both sides, right and left. .
Receives: Other: M-Tapa Block
IV PCA applied groupOtherIn the IV PCA group, the surgeon performed local infiltration with 40 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine around the incisions. All patients were provided postoperative analgesia with intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IVHKA). When pain was expressed by the patient, the patient pressed a button and the IV HKA pump was programmed to deliver a 1 ml bolus dose with a 10-minute lockout interval and no background infusion allowed. Each 1 ml of IVHKA solution contains 1 mg of morphine.
Receives: Other: M-Tapa Block

What is being measured

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

  1. Opioid Consumption

    The postoperative opioid consumption

    Measured: Postoperative 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. NRS Scores

    Numeric Rating Scale score (rating from 1 to 10. 1:no pain to 10: worst pain ever)

    Measured: postoperative 24 hours

  2. the need for rescue analgesia

    if NRS>4: apply rescue analgesia: the total count of rescue analgesia need

    Measured: postoperative 24 hours

  3. side effects

    nausea- vomiting

    Measured: postoperative 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing M-Tapa Block in people with Abdominal Cancer and Abdomen Disease, run by Marmara University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 inclusion and 7 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 Aug 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

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?

Opioid Consumption (time frame: Postoperative 24 hours). 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 NCT06384677, 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 Aug 2024.
