Comparing three drugs to reduce rocuronium injection pain
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests three different medicines (lidocaine, paracetamol, and dexmedetomidine) to see which one works best to reduce the burning pain some people feel when the muscle relaxant rocuronium is injected during anesthesia. It's designed for adults having elective surgery under propofol.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether raising the arm during propofol injection reduces pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to have their arm elevated or not when the medication is given.
This trial tests two medicines, parecoxib and lidocaine, to see which works better at preventing the pain when propofol is given into a vein. It may help you if you are having elective surgery and want a more comfortable start to anesthesia.
This study tests whether nalbuphine or lidocaine works better at reducing the pain felt when propofol is injected during general anesthesia. If you are having planned surgery with propofol, you may be able to join.
This study compares two medications—ondansetron (a nausea-prevention drug) and lidocaine (a numbing agent)—to see which one better reduces the burning pain some patients feel when propofol is injected to start general anesthesia. If you're having elective surgery, this trial may help make your anesthesia experience more comfortable.
This trial tests two different drugs (dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine) added to a standard nerve block for knee replacement. It aims to see which one provides better pain control after surgery.
This trial investigates whether giving rocuronium (a muscle relaxant) before the main anesthetic can make muscles relax faster and affect heart rate and blood pressure during the start of general anesthesia. It aims to improve safety and smoothness of the process for people having planned surgery with a breathing tube.
