The Effectiveness of Cancer Pain Management in Siriraj Outpatient Pain Clinic

February 22, 2021 updated by: Mahidol University

The Effectiveness of Cancer Pain Management Including Early Pain Intervention, Early Multi Modality Treatment and Closed Follow up in Siriraj Outpatient Pain Clinic

-Background: Cancer is one of the most common cause of death. Cancer pain is often cited as one of the most feared in cancer patients. Although, WHO guidelines have been provided to improve pain outcome, the results are still unsatisfied. In order to improve cancer pain management we consider to contribute a new guideline which includes interdisciplinary approach, early doing the pain interventions, breakthrough pain, education, high quality of pain assessment and contribute the effectiveness follow-up system

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  • Objectives:Primary outcome is study the effectiveness of new approach and closed follow up system by relief pain intensity 30% at 3 month up to 80% of all new cancer pain patients in OPD setting Secondary outcomes are quality of life (BPI,ESAS), side effect of treatments and the contributing factors that impact on the outcomes
  • Study design:A prospective observational study
  • Sample size : 150
  • Data collection: General information: age, gender, body weight, height, religion, residence, care giver, occupation, income, education, medical problem Clinical pain information: primary diagnosis, staging, cancer site, current medications Clinical assessment: at three study time points: baseline (initial assessment) and the three subsequent follow-ups (FU1, FU2 and FU3)

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Improvement of Pain.
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
Numerical Pain Rating Scale Total score 0-10 (0 is best outcome, 10 is worst outcome) 0-3 is mild pain, 4-7 is moderate pain, 7-10 is severe pain.
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Total Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline

To assess the severity of pain and impact on functioning that included worst pain in last 24 hrs, least pain in last 24 hrs, pain average, pain right now, general activity, mood, walking ability, normal work, relationship with other, sleep and enjoyment of life.

Each symptoms scales 0-10 (0 mean no symptom, not interfere, 10 mean most symptom, most interfere) total 70 scores
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
Edmonton Symptom Assessment System(ESAS)
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
To assess multi-directional of patients quality of life, included 9 symptoms ( pain,tired, neausea, depress, anxious, drowsiness, appetite, feeling of well being, shortness of breath) Each symptoms scales 0-9 (0 mean no Symptom, 9 mean most severe symptom) total ESAS 90 scores
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
Percentage of Moderate to Severe Sedation
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline.

Pasero Opioid-induced Sedation Scale (POSS)

  • S=sleep, easy to arouse
  • 1=awake/alert
  • 2= slight drowsy/easy aroused
  • 3=Frequently drowsy, arousable, drifts off to sleep during conversation
  • 4=Somnolent, minimal or no response to verbal and physical stimulation Score of 2-4 indicated moderate to severe sedation
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline.
Percentage of Moderate to Severe Neausea and Vomitting
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline

Four points scale to evaluate opioid induce nausea and vomiting Total scales 0-3 (0 is best outcome, 3 is worst outcome)

  • 0= no nausea and vomiting
  • 1= mild symptom but not need any treatments. (only neausea)
  • 2= moderate symptom, need treatment, can control symptom. (have vomiting can control with medication)
  • 3= severe symptom, need treatment, cannot control symptom. (vomiting can not control with medication)
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
Percentage of Moderate to Severe Constipation
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline

Stool free interval 72 (sfi72) to evaluate opioid induce costipation (OIC): 0-4.

Total scale 0-4 (0 is best outcome, 4 is worst outcome)

  • 0 represented one defecation within the previous 72 hr
  • 1 denoted mild constipation (no defecation within the last 72 h)
  • 2 referred to the use of a maximum of 3 laxatives
  • 3 referred to the use of more than 3 laxatives
  • 4 referred to the use of all laxatives have failed Score of 2-4 indicated moderate to severe constipation
Approximately 12 wks from the baseline
Percentage of Satisfied With the Service (Score=3)
Time Frame: Approximately 12 wks from the baseline.
