Filter by:Motor-sparing analgesic interventions for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are a key component of fast-track surgery. The investigators want to estimate treatments effects, inclusion rate, and feasibility of conducting a future randomized controlled superiority trial and to assess whether the short-term postoperative analgesic effect and ambulation after a Genicular - Infiltration Between Popliteal Artery and Capsule of Knee (iPACK) block in patients undergoing unilateral primary TKA is superior to Femoral triangle - iPACK block and Local Infiltration Analgesia (LIA). The study is a prospective, double-blind, triple-arm superiority pilot randomised controlled trial with a randomization rate 1:1:1.Group I will receive a Genicular - iPACK block, group II a Femoral Triangle - iPACK block and group III LIA. The primary study outcome is the proportion of patients that are able to mobilise (defined as walk 10 meters with assistance) with a numerical rating scale (NRS) of equal or less than 4 without the use of opioids at 4-6 hours after TKA. Secondary outcomes are efficacy (measured in NRS, total morphine consumption, total morphine titrations), functionality (quadriceps strength, timed-up-and-go, 6-minute walk test, inpatient falls), frequency of opioid related adverse events, discharge readiness, patient satisfaction, health-related quality of life, length of stay (LOS), complications after TKA and adverse events related to the study interventions.
Postoperative pain management has an important role in anesthesia practice. In order to ensure postoperative patient comfort, postoperative rehabilitation should start early and be managed effectively1. It is known that if adequate analgesia is not provided before the patient wakes up, the severity of pain and the total opioid consumption increases. This increased opioid use causes complications such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, increased sleepiness and respiratory depression2. For this reason, the provision of adequate analgesia before the patient is awakened from general anesthesia has an important place in the process. Measurement of pain has different characteristics in patients under sedation or general anesthesia compared to conscious patients. However, since it is not possible for the patient to define pain under general anesthesia, different measurement and evaluation methods are needed. In order to monitor the intraoperative balance between nociception and antinociception, several non-invasive methods with different physiological approaches have been researched and made available for use in the last decade. The aim of these methods is individualize the intraoperative and postoperative opioid dose3. In this context, it has been suggested that the Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) method can be used in the evaluation of the analgesic component of anesthesia.
Tonsillectomy is one of the most common surgical operations performed on children, and it is frequently linked with an increased risk of complications such as acute discomfort when swallowing and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).The most prevalent causes for postponing discharge home are poorly managed pain and PONV.
Postpartum analgesia is a common concern after Cesarean Section (CS). The quality of postoperative recovery is improved by opioid sparing pain control approaches. The transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) is an effective technique for postpartum analgesia after cesarean section. Pregnancy results in thinning of the internal oblique aponeurosis; with increased incidence of missing the second pop to reach the transversus abdominis plane (TAP). The classic blind approach to the TAP is associated with several complications; so, it has been largely replaced by the ultrasound-guided approach to the TAP. The ultrasound-guided approach to the TAPB was first described by Hebbart and his colleagues in 2007.Ultrasound-guided TAPB improves the success of the block, reduces the volume of local anesthetic used and prevents the potential injury of adjacent structures. Surgical approach to the TAPB was also described, it is a quick and easy approach of establishing a reliable block. The surgeon performs an intra-abdominal approach to the TAPB; by which asepsis is easily attained, visible and tactile confirmation of correct needle placement may be achieved with no risk of damage to the viscera but care must be given to avoid injury of the inferior epigastric vessels.
The study design will be double blinded retrospective controlled comparative study. The patients will be included in the study shoud be in the following category: - American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I, II - Age range from 18 and 70 years. The patients will be discarded from the study shoud be in the following: - patient refusal. - significant renal, hepatic and cardiovascular diseases. - Pregnancy. - Any contraindication to regional anesthesia such as local infection or bleeding disorders. - Chronic opioid use, history of chronic pain and cognitive disorders. - Lumbar spine lesion revision and dural tear. Postoperative pain will be evaluated using a visual analogue scale (VAS) score as primary outcome measure. demographic data ( Age, Weight, sex and height) , ASA classification ,mean operative times (min), time to the first rescue analgesic (min) ,intraoperative fentanyl consumption(microgram),postoperative opioid consumption ,sedation score, hemodynamics intraoperative and postoperative ( BP ,H R and oxgen saturation %) and complications as 2ry outcome measures.
Neuraxial analgesia may improve postoperative outcomes for high-risk children who are susceptible to respiratory complications (e.g. post-operative apnea). The use of spinal anesthesia in infants and children requiring surgeries of the sub-umbilical regions is gaining considerable popularity worldwide. Caudal analgesia along with general anesthesia is a very popular regional technique for prolonged postoperative analgesia in different pediatric surgical procedures where the surgical site is sub-umbilical. Bupivacaine has been thoroughly studied, and a large global experience exists.
This study aimed to compare the analgesia effectivity of TLIP and modified TLIP block in Posterior Lumbar Decompression and Stabilization Surgery Perioperatively.
Purpose of this study was to evaluate different methods of controlling pain during debonding
The analgesic effect of perioperative use of aripiprazole has not been fully investigated. So, this study aims to test the effects of aripiprazole versus placebo in reducing postoperative pain following laparoscopic hysterectomy and to explore the potential side effects.
The proposed pilot study is a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, single-center pilot study.The aim of this pilot project is to evaluate the feasibility of a phase III study on the use of dexmedetomidine in intrathecal in the context of elective cesarean section. The target population for the study will be adult pregnant women undergoing elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. This study will be carried out at a single site, the CHU Sainte-Justine as part of a research internship as part of the anesthesiology residency program at the University of Montreal.
