| NCT00487084 ↗ | Effect of Timing on Efficacy of Morphine Analgesia After 2-chloroprocaine Anesthesia | Completed | Northwestern University | N/A | 2004-08-01 | Epidural chloroprocaine is often used in obstetrical anesthesia because of its fast onset and short duration. These properties make it an ideal drug to use for epidural anesthesia in patients undergoing postpartum tubal ligation. When epidural morphine is given after chloroprocaine, there is a decreased efficacy of analgesia as compared to lidocaine (1). Several studies have hypothesized a specific opioid receptor mediated antagonism of chloroprocaine (2,3). Karambelkar raised the question whether this decreased efficacy is due to a disparity between the time the chloroprocaine anesthesia resolves and the onset of epidural morphine analgesia, resulting in a time window of pain (2). The duration of action of epidural 2-CP anesthesia is 30-45 minutes and the onset of epidural morphine analgesia is 60-70 minutes, therefore the regression of sensory blockade before the onset of the morphine analgesia could result in a window of pain (2). Hess and colleagues studied epidural morphine analgesia and women who had a Cesarean delivery under spinal bupivacaine anesthesia (3). Subjects were randomized to receive epidural 2-CP and morphine or epidural saline and morphine. There was no difference in postoperative analgesia between the two groups (3 and personal communication, Dr. Philip Hess). A literature search cross referencing epidural chloroprocaine, using Pub Med, did not produce any articles comparing epidural morphine given before the procedure (in an attempt to time the onset of analgesia with the resolution of chloroprocaine anesthesia) to the standard administration time after the procedure. |

| NCT01719237 ↗ | Trial Comparing the Onset and Duration of Ultrasound Guided Supraclavicular Nerve Blocks Using Ropivacaine Versus Ropivacaine-Chloroprocaine Mixture | Completed | VA Palo Alto Health Care System | Phase 4 | 2009-08-01 | A double blinded randomized controlled trial comparing the onset and duration of the Onset and Duration of Ultrasound Guided Supraclavicular Nerve Blocks Using a long acting local anesthestic (Ropivacaine) with a mixture of a long and short acting local anesthestic (Ropivacaine-Chloroprocaine Mixture). |
| NCT01719237 ↗ | Trial Comparing the Onset and Duration of Ultrasound Guided Supraclavicular Nerve Blocks Using Ropivacaine Versus Ropivacaine-Chloroprocaine Mixture | Completed | University of New Mexico | Phase 4 | 2009-08-01 | A double blinded randomized controlled trial comparing the onset and duration of the Onset and Duration of Ultrasound Guided Supraclavicular Nerve Blocks Using a long acting local anesthestic (Ropivacaine) with a mixture of a long and short acting local anesthestic (Ropivacaine-Chloroprocaine Mixture). |
| NCT01909089 ↗ | Determination of the Minimum Local Analgesic Dose of Spinal Chloroprocaine in Labour | Unknown status | University Hospital, Ghent | Phase 4 | 2013-06-01 | Combined spinal-epidural (CSE) analgesia has become a widely accepted approach to provide analgesia for labour pain. Despite the increasingly widespread use of this technique, an optimal intrathecal drug regimen has not been established yet. Several investigations using local anesthetics such as Bupivacaine, Levobupivacaine and Ropivacaine in CSE during labour have been published. But despite the reintroduction of Chloroprocaine recently there haven't been any investigations about spinal chloroprocaine. Chloroprocaine is already a long-know drug with a beneficial pharmacodynamic/kinetic profile. It is known for a very quick onset of action (2 - 3 minutes), high efficacy, rapid metabolism by plasma cholinesterases and short half-life both in mother and fetus. Because of this beneficial profile, Chloroprocaine is widely used intrathecally for surgical anesthesia. Several investigations demonstrate that for surgical anesthesia doses Chloroprocaine ranging from 30 - 60 mg are used and that they have an effective surgical duration of 40 - 90 minutes. Despite these "standards" for surgical anesthesia, little is known about spinal Chloroprocaine dose regimens. Therefore the primary goal of this study is to determine the minimum adequate dose of Chloroprocaine that is to be given spinally to a woman in labour using a CSE procedure. We will use the up-down sequential allocation to identify the median effective dose (ED50) or concentration (EC50). The Effective dose in 95% of the population (ED95) can be estimated also from an up-down sequential allocation and will become an important valuable approximation of the clinical dose. |
| NCT02049255 ↗ | Comparision of the Use in Marcaine and Chloroprocaine in Rachianesthesia for the Surgical Correction of Inguinal Hernia. | Completed | Astes | Phase 4 | 2013-11-01 | Comparison the use of marcaine and chloroprocaine in rachianesthesia for a surgical correction of inguinal hernia. Comparision between acute and chronic (3 months and 6 months) pain. |
