U.S., May 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06966869) titled 'Evaluation of Fentanyl Transdermal Patch Absorption in Hemodynamically Unstable ICU Patients.' on May 04.
Brief Summary: This study investigates how well fentanyl is absorbed through the skin when delivered via a transdermal patch in critically ill surgical ICU patients. It compares hemodynamically stable patients with unstable patients who require vasopressors to maintain adequate blood pressure. Fentanyl blood levels will be measured over time to assess whether absorption is impaired in unstable patients. The goal is to determine whether transdermal fentanyl is a viable option for pain management in resource-limited ICUs or in situ...
