Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess whether an intervention with open-label placebo (OLP) for non-specific pain in the emergency department is feasible.
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. Modified radical mastectomy, a surgical procedure in the treatment of breast cancer, is one of the standard treatments. Postoperative pain can seriously reduce the quality of life in patients, and inadequately treated acute pain can trigger chronic pain syndrome. Therefore, thoracic paravertebral block and thoracic epidural block are effective in postoperative analgesia. However, the use of these blocks is limited due to complications. In recent years, less invasive blocks, such as pectoral nerve block (PECS I-II), Serratus anterior plane block (SAPB), Erector spinae plane block (ESPB), and Serratus Posterior Superior intercostal Plane Block (SPSİPB) have been applied. In this study, it was aimed to compare the analgesic effectiveness of ESPB and SPSİPB applications in patients undergoing breast surgery.
Supratentorial craniotomy is one of the most common neurosurgical procedures, with severe perioperative pain. Inadequate perioperative pain relief has been associated with increased blood pressure and intracranial pressure, favoring bleeding and cerebral cerebral hypoperfusion. The ideal analgesia for neurosurgery requires complete pain relief, eliminates the side effects of opioid drugs and no influence for neurological function. Previous studies have proposed a multimodal analgesic strategy, combining analgesics and local anaesthesia, it is expected to achieve the above benefits.
The purpose of this study is to determine which method is more effective in postoperative pain control in children undergoing iliac bone grafting for alveoloplasty under general anesthesia: ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal blockade or transversalis fascia plane block
This study is about a new pain relief medication called methoxyflurane. Pain from injuries, like broken bones, is a big reason people call ambulances. It's important to treat pain well because it can make people sick and slow down healing. But often, pain isn't treated enough, which can lead to more problems. Paramedics use different drugs to manage pain, but some are hard to give and need special training and equipment. Methoxyflurane is a new option. It's a gas you breathe in through a special inhaler. It's been used in Australia and New Zealand for a long time and has shown to work quickly and safely for different kinds of pain. This study wants to see if methoxyflurane works well for people with moderate to severe pain from injuries compared to other medicines like Advil, Tylenol and opioids. It's testing if methoxyflurane can give fast pain relief and if paramedics find it easy to use. The study will help understand if methoxyflurane could be a good option for treating pain in ambulances.
This study aims to analyze the effect of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (LG-TAP) block compared to placebo for postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. One group of participants received a (LG-TAP) block with local anesthetic while the other group received (LG-TAP) block with saline solution (placebo).
This is a double-arm randomized control trial evaluating the impact of preoperative opioid-free analgesia on time to trial of void in ambulatory urogynecologic surgeries. The investigators hypothesize that receipt of acetaminophen, celecoxib and gabapentin preoperatively versus acetaminophen alone will reduce the time to trial of void in patients undergoing same-day minor urogynecologic procedures.
This study will be investigated the effects of facilitated tucking, ShotBlocker and combined facilitated tucking and ShotBlocker methods on procedural pain, crying time and duration of the procedure during Hepatitis B vaccine administration in healthy term infants.
In situations where intravenous access is not readily available or is unobtainable and the intranasal route is not feasible, another non-invasive route of ketamine administration, such as inhalation via breath-actuated Nebulizer (BAN), is becoming a viable alternative. The BAN allows the controlled, patient-initiated delivery of analgesics in a measured and titratable fashion. (18) Ketamine has been studied as a nebulized drug in a lot of different settings and for a lot of different reasons, such as to treat acute pain after surgery (like a sore throat after being intubated), as a pre-medication for general anesthesia, to treat cancer pain, and as a therapy for asthmaticus. Our research team has published two case series of 10 adult patients who were given nebulized ketamine (via BAN) for a variety of acute traumatic and non-traumatic painful conditions. The patients showed a 60% decrease in pain and a small number of side effects. Furthermore, our group published a randomized, double-blind trial of 120 adult patients evaluating the analgesic efficacy and safety of nebulized ketamine at three different dosing regimens for acute pain in the ED (0.75 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, and 1.5 mg/kg), showing similar analgesic efficacy between the three different dosing regimens for short-term (up to 120 minutes) pain relief. Lastly, we recently completed a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy clinical trial comparing the analgesic efficacy and safety of nebulized ketamine and intravenous ketamine in managing acute pain in adult ED patients, with data currently being analyzed. Nebulized fentanyl given in the ED to adults with acute traumatic and non-traumatic pain syndromes at a dose range of 1.5-4 mcg/kg showed the same or even better pain-relieving effects than IV fentanyl and IV morphine alone. Our objective is to compare the analgesic efficacy and rates of side effects of a 0.75 mg/kg dose of ketamine administered via breath-actuated nebulizer (BAN) to a dose of 3 mcg/kg of fentanyl administered via breath-actuated nebulizer (BAN) in adult patients presenting to the ED with acute painful conditions.
The aim of this study is to examine the impact of implementing a standardized pain therapy protocol and their components on postoperative pain trajectories and postoperative outcomes such as increased opioid consumption and to compare it for different orthopaedic operations, i.e. major shoulder, hip, knee und spine surgery.
