Monitoring of Injection Pressure During Regional Anesthesia in Pediatric Patient (COMPUFLO)

November 8, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier

Use of Compuflo in Pediatric Anesthesia: Monitoring of Injection Pressure of Local Anesthetics in Children

A low injection pressure is one of the safety elements to check the correct position of the needle during regional anesthesia. Subjective assessment of pressure during manual injection of local anesthetic is most commonly used. In adults, the monitoring of the injection pressure has already been evaluated and makes it possible to objectify the pressure of the injection pressure. This is possible thanks to a device named Compuflo. No study has measured injection pressures during a regional anesthesia in children. The main objective is to control the injection pressures exercised in daily clinical practice during pediatric regional anesthesia with the Compuflo. Regional anesthesia will be proposed and explained during the anesthesia consultation. The procedure will be performed according to the habits of the anesthesiologist in charge of the patient. Only the addition of the Local Anesthetic Injection Pressure monitoring (Compuflo) to the needle changes the usual setup.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usual practice using Compuflo, allowing the continuous measurement of the injection pressure of the local anesthetic at the needle level. On the day of the surgery, an anesthesiologist "operator" will realize the echo-guided regional anesthesia, qualifying aloud every injection realized (site or compartment of injection, and volume injected). An "observer" anesthesiologist will note the demographic data (age and weight), then the material data (minimum stimulation intensity, type and size of needles and syringes used), and finally he will note the maximum pressure levels reached during the injections performed.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

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
injection pressure (injection pressure measured by Compuflo)
Time Frame: up to 24 hours (during the ALR)
injection pressure measured by Compuflo
up to 24 hours (during the ALR)

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.
