ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
Primary
To evaluate the efficacy of two peripheral nerve blocks performed 14 days apart on spontaneous neuropathic pain after stroke. The active treatments used for the blocks will be either lidocaine 20mg/ml or levobupivacaine 1.25mg/ml or placebo (saline)
24 months
The evolution in neuropathic pain intensity assessed on an 11-point pain intensity scale (0 = no pain: 10: maximum imaginable pain), expressed as a difference in pain intensity between the value obtained before each block and that obtained 45 minutes after, corresponding to the maximum expected effect. The values obtained before and after each block will first be analysed individually and then combined for the two successive blocks for each patient and the comparison will be between the three treatment arms, lidocaine 20mg/ml, levobupivacaine 1.25mg/ml or placebo Rationale for the choice of the main criterion : Pain intensity will be assessed on a numerical scale that corresponds to the usual validated measurement criterion and the choice of 45 minutes corresponds to the maximum effect of local anaesthetics
Secondary
- To evaluate the time course and duration of the effectiveness of the nerve blocks on spontaneous pain on a pain intensity scale completed daily by the patient on a self-evaluation booklet up to 14 days after each block.
24 months
\- Comparison of the duration (in days) of efficacy of lidocaine 20 mg/ml levobupivacaine 1.25 mg/ml and placebo blocks on spontaneous and exertional pain assessed by an 11-point pain intensity scale (0 to 10) completed daily by the patient on a self-report diary, up to 14 days after each block.
Secondary- Evaluate the effectiveness of blocks on exercise pain24 months
\- Comparison of the efficacy of levobupicacaine 1.25 mg/ml, lidocaine 20 mg/ml and placebo on spontaneous and exertional pain assessed by an 11-point pain intensity scale (0 to 10) at 45 minutes and then at 5 hours after the block and then daily on a self-evaluation booklet, up to 14 days after each block
Secondary- Directly compare the efficacy of active blocks, i.e. lidocaine and levobupivacaine, on spontaneous and provoked pain (allodynia)24 months
* Comparison of the efficacy of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks on the intensity of rubbing pain if present (dynamic mechanical allodynia) assessed before treatment with a brush and then at 45 minutes and at 5 hours after each block. * Comparison of the efficacy of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks on spontaneous and provoked pain area (mechanical allodynia if present) assessed by a tracing (and then plotted on a graph allowing measurement of area in cm2) before treatment and then at 45 minutes and at 5 hours after each block using a method used in our previous studies
Secondary- Evaluate the effectiveness of each block on provoked pain (mechanical allodynia), mechanical, hot and cold pain thresholds and pain area24 months
\- Comparison of the efficacy of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks on mechanical pain and detection thresholds assessed by Semmes Weinstein monofilaments (calibrated from 0.057 g to 300 g) as well as on thermal pain and detection thresholds assessed by a thermotest before the treatment and at 45 minutes and at 5 hours after each block
Secondary- Evaluate the effectiveness of each block on the dimensions of neuropathic pain assessed by the NPSI questionnaire24 months
\- Comparison of the efficacy of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks on dimensions of neuropathic pain assessed by the NPSI questionnaire before treatment and at 45 minutes, and at 5 hours and 2 weeks after each block
Secondary- To evaluate the effectiveness of the blocks on the overall clinical impression, the percentage of relief as well as the satisfaction with the treatment24 months
Evaluation of adverse effects of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks after the blocks and up to 14 days after each block. * Efficacy of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks on patient (PGIC) and examiner (CGIC) clinical global impression at 45 minutes, and at 5 hours and 2 weeks after each block. * Proportion of responders to lidocaine, levobupivicaine and placebo treatments assessed at 45 minutes, ad at 5 hours and 2 weeks after each block.
Secondary- Assessing the adverse effects of each treatment24 months\- Evaluation of adverse effects of lidocaine, levobupivacaine and placebo blocks after the blocks and up to 14 days after each block
Secondary- Assessing the maintenance of blinding by a blinding questionnaire at the end of the study24 months\- Blinding assessment by a blinding questionnaire at the end of the study for each patient
