Study Summary

This trial is looking at what is the best dose of a new pain medicine for children who are getting surgery to fix an inguinal hernia.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 2 to <17 years needing elective open inguinal hernia repair. They must be able to follow the study's procedures and have a guardian who can consent. Girls of childbearing age need negative pregnancy tests. Kids with major surgery in the last 3 months, other clinical trials within 30 days, or significant health risks are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing two pain management methods after hernia surgery: an implant containing Bupivacaine HCl and direct infiltration with Bupivacaine HCl. It starts with older kids (12-<17) and moves to younger groups to find suitable doses.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the implant site, sensitivity issues due to amide local anesthetics or bovine products in the implant, and typical bupivacaine-related effects like nerve damage symptoms or heart problems.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What primary goals does this research project hope to accomplish?

"According to the study sponsor, Innocoll, the primary outcome measure for this trial will be oxygen saturation levels over a period of three days. Secondary outcomes include Tmax (time to maximum observed plasma concentration), AUC0-∞ (area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to extrapolated infinity), and pain intensity as assessed using an 11-point NRS scale (for children 12 to <17 years of age), FACES pain severity scale (children 4 through <12 years of age), or FLACC (children 2 and 3 years of age) immediately before receiving any rescue medication for breakthrough pain."

Answered by AI

Is this study enrolling new participants at the moment?

"Indeed, the clinical trial is recruiting patients as stated on clinicaltrials.gov. The study was posted June 16th, 2017 and updated July 23rd, 2021. They are looking for 159 individuals to participate at 7 different locations."

Answered by AI

Are there any other precedents for a Bupivacaine HCl collagen-matrix implant?

"There are 124 clinical trials that have bupivacaine hydrochloride collagen-matrix implants as their focus. Of these, 21 are in the third and final stage. The majority of these studies are based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; however, there are a total of 169 locations running these sorts of trials."

Answered by AI

Might I be eligible to enroll in this clinical trial?

"This study is looking for 159 people, within the ages of 2 and 16 who currently have postoperative pain.
