Filter by:This is an investigator-initiated, single-center, randomized, patient blinded, controlled trial. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of a fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) using 0.2% ropivacaine vs. liposomal bupivacaine in patients with femur and/or hip fractures admitted to the University of California Davis Medical Center (UCDMC). The primary endpoint will be the total opioid requirements during the 96 hour randomization period with secondary endpoints including total daily opioid requirements for days 1-4, duration of effect and objective pain scores using the numeric rating scale (NRS) during their hospital stay.
Study to evaluate the overall performance of the Zalviso System™ (sufentanil sublingual tablet system) 15 mcg
Patients with moderate to severe pain caused by medical conditions or surgery, who require IV opioid therapy may be enrolled in this open label safety study. Patients will be treated with TRV130 by IV bolus, PCA (patient-controlled analgesia) administration, or both, as determined by the investigator, for a duration not to exceed 14 days.
Living donor organ transplantation has increased in recent years due to an increased need for organs. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of a TAP block on postoperative analgesia and opioid consumption in liver transplantation donors in whom a right lateral extending upper mid-line abdominal incision was used.
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies topical cryotherapy (cooling hands and feet with ice bags) in reducing pain in patients with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy or paclitaxel induced acute pain syndrome. Peripheral neuropathy is a nerve problem that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body. Paclitaxel produces a disabling syndrome of acute aches and pains. Topical cryotherapy is being studied to see if it can help relieve pain from peripheral neuropathy or acute pain syndrome caused by chemotherapy.
The purpose of this research study is to test whether researchers can reliably measure the response pupils have when an acute painful stimulus is experienced. Changes in the size of the pupil of the eye can be an indicator of brain activity in a region of the brain that is important for feeling pain.
To determine the efficacy of intravenous (IV) acetaminophen as an analgesic adjunct to IV hydromorphone in the treatment of acute severe pain in the elderly Emergency Department (ED) patients.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study designed to examine pain relief following intrathecal morphine sulfate (0.2mg) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) under spinal anesthesia in addition to a femoral nerve catheter. The protocol consists of two parts: (1) a prospective patient recruitment study and (2) a retrospective assay for endocannabinoids on previously collected specimens.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of pharmacogenetics (PGx) guided treatment when implemented into the pre-operative process for patients undergoing bowel surgery, major urologic procedure, or major ventral hernia repair and requiring post-operative acute pain management in an inpatient basis, as compared to a group of subjects with the same attributes without the guidance of PGx testing (historical control group). This study will also evaluate the frequency with which the standard analgesic care plan is adjusted by test results.
The study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing local infiltration of analgesia in the knee joint and adductor canal catheters for postoperative analgesia following a primary Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA).
