Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided selective supraclavicular nerve block on pain control after Hickman catheter, chemoport, or Perm cath insertion in children.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pediatric patients undergoing surgical insertion of a Hickman catheter, chemoport, or Permcath are randomly assigned to a test group (Ultrasound-guided selective supraclavicular nerve block with Ropivacaine) and a control group (Nerve block is not performed).

Immediately after induction of general anesthesia, in the test group, the supraclavicular nerve block was selectively performed using ultrasound using 0.1mL/kg of 0.5% Ropivacaine (Maximum dose: 5mL), and the nerve block was not completed in the control group. After that, a Hickman catheter, chemoport, or Permcath is surgically inserted in the usual way and allowed to recover from anesthesia.

The pain score is evaluated between 10 and 30 minutes of entering the recovery room (1 hour after the procedure) and 1 hour, 3 hours, and 24 hours after leaving the recovery room by another research team who is unaware of the group assignment. In addition, the use of additional analgesic drugs and related side effects were collected before discharge.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Selective supraclavicular nerve block

After induction of anesthesia, the anesthesiologist sterilizes the skin of the area to be punctured. In the test group, an Ultrasound-guided selective supraclavicular nerve block is performed using 0.5% Ropivacaine 0.1mL/kg (Maximum dose: 5mL).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ropivacaine

Intervention Type DRUG

The nerve involved in the operation of Hickman catheter, chemoport, and Perm cath is the supraclavicular nerve. Therefore, it is judged that if only this nerve is selectively blocked, pain control can be effectively performed with a small amount of local anesthetic, and relatively few side effects occur.

Control

The nerve block is not performed in the control group.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Control (without intervention)

Intervention Type OTHER
