Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the investigators study was to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of nebulized morphine compared with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAI)intravenously in the management of renal colic.

Determine the need for systematic outpatient prescription of NSAI.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: IV NSAI
  • Drug: NM
  • Drug: IV Serum Saline
  • Drug: Nebulised Serum Saline
Phase 1

Detailed Description

Renal colic are a frequent cause of consultation in the emergency departement (ED).

They count for approximatively 20% of patients presenting to the ED with severe acute onset abdominal pain.

For acute treatment of renal colics (RC), guidelines recommend the use of intravenous (IV) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAI) drugs in association with antalgics like Paracetamol or Morphine.

But the NSAID present many inconvenient and cannot be used in some type of patients; that's why the investigators investigated the use of other drugs, such as nebulised morphine, in the ED treatment of renal colics.

the NM has the adequacy of being quickest, more practical to use and more tolerated than the IV NSAID.

In this study, the investigators aim to assess the feasibility, efficacity and safety of nebulised morphine compared to intravenous NSAID in the treatment of RC.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Intravenous NSAI

patients received 100 mg of ketoprofen (NSAID) by IV root and in parallel 3 nebulisation of serum saline (SS) over 30 minutes.

Drug: IV NSAI
100 mg of ketoprofen in 50 ml volume given in 30 minutes by IV root
Other Names:
  • ketoprofen IV
  • Drug: Nebulised Serum Saline
    3 nebulisations of 5ml SS each are given over 30 minutes
    Other Names:
  • serum saline
  • Experimental: Nebulised Morphine

    patients received 3 nebulisation of morphine (5 mg each) and in parallel 50 ml of SS by IV root over 30 minutes.

    Drug: NM
    3 nebulisations of 5 mg morphine chlorhydrate each given over 30 minutes (10 minutes per nebulisation)
    Other Names:
  • morphine
  • Drug: IV Serum Saline
    50 ml of SS is given by IV root over 30 minutes
    Other Names:
  • serum saline
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. efficacity: VAS pain reduction [5, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes]

      The effectiveness of treatment is defined by a decrease in the intensity of pain corresponding to a decrease of the VAS above 50% at 60 minutes compared to baseline.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. feasibility of the study: number of patients accepting the adhesion to protocol [at base line and at 60 minutes]

      the feasibility is assessed by comparing the number of patients accepting the protocol to the total number of patients consulting for RC; and the number of patients that actually completed the protocol course (if above 50%, the protocol is considered feasable).

    2. safety: side effects of treatment [5, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes]

      the safety of treatment is evaluated by the occurence of side effects at any time of the protocol. only major side effects (repeated vomiting, untolerated dizziness, conscience troubles, dyspnea and allergic reaction) are admitted to stop the protocol.
