Intrathecal Paracetamol Before Spinal Anaesthesia With Chloroprocaine HCl 1% for Short Knee Procedures
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a phase II, single centre, randomised, parallel-group, double-blind, three doses, placebo-controlled, exploratory efficacy and safety study. The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of a single intrathecal injection of Paracetamol 3% (30 mg/mL) administered at 3 doses to 3 active treatment groups, as compared to placebo, for post-operative analgesia in knee procedures up to 40 min duration performed under spinal anaesthesia with Chloroprocaine HCl 1%.

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
Eligible patients undergoing elective short-duration knee procedures up to 40 min duration will be randomised into 4 treatment groups (15 patients per group) to receive either one of the 3 single doses of Paracetamol 3% (D1: 30 mg, D2: 60 mg, D3: 90 mg) or the placebo solution (P: 0.9% saline solution) by intrathecal injection (IT), according to the randomised, parallel-group design.
Immediately after IT paracetamol or placebo administration, all patients will receive a single IT dose of Chloroprocaine HCl 1% (Non-investigational medicinal product, NIMP) according to the Summary of Product Characteristics indications. The time interval between paracetamol IT and chloroprocaine IT injections should not exceed 2 min.
The study will include a screening phase (Visit 1, Day -21/-1), a treatment phase (IMP IT administration, anaesthesia and surgical procedure: Visit 2, Day 1) and a follow-up phase including an observation period (Visit 3), a final visit and two follow-ups (24 h post-dose and day 7±1).
