NCT ID: NCT05307471 Terminated - Thoracotomy Clinical Trials

Physiopathologic Study of Induced by Thoracotomy / Thoracoscopy Neuropathy Mechanism

NITT
Start date: October 28, 2013
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Pulmonary surgery, performed routinely by thoracotomy or thoracoscopy, can cause significant and frequent chronic postoperative pain, most often neuropathic. The role of trauma intraoperative intercostal nerve is evoked to explain the genesis of the neuropathy. Treatments proposed in the indication of neuropathic pain in a broad sense, are exposed to many cases of failures. It is supposed that these failures are due to a mismatch between the selected drug (which is specific to the target) and the real pathology because neuropathy encompasses many different pathophysiological syndromes which are sometimes intricated. The main objective of this project is to study the clinical, psychophysical and electrophysiological (noninvasively) intercostal nerve affected by the surgery at the second postoperative month, by comparing the results with similar observations made shortly before the intervention. This study will be proposed to patients undergoing thoracotomy or thoracoscopy for partial or total lung resection in the service of Thoracic Surgery of Centre Jean Perrin, the objective is to recruit 120 patients (for 100 evaluable patients) over a period of 18 months of inclusion. The other objective of the project is to provide a treatment algorithm for patients in pain, and to compare the efficacy of this treatment with the pre-treatment observations data.
