Filter by:Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCA) has already proven its quality. However, with new strategies starting to emerge and the current concept of opioid sparing, it is a goal to find the optimal PCA strategy capable of improve patient satisfaction and, at the same time, individualize opioid dose. In a prospected randomized study, it was compared the use of Sufentanil Sublingual PCA System with intravenous PCA Morphine in terms of postoperative pain control satisfaction, total dose of opioid required, adverse effects, impact on the quality of postoperative recovery and the incidence of postoperative chronic pain.
Introduction: Approximately 10-14 painful procedures per day are performed in preterm and term infants during the hospital stay in the first week. The investigators aimed to determine the effect of reflexology being applied to the sole during painful procedures on pain perception, behavioral responses, and physiological changes in newborns compared with other non-pharmacological methods. Material and Method: This study was planned as a randomized controlled trial in term infants being followed up in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and maternity ward. To reduce pain during attempts to collect venous blood or heel lance which are routinely applied to term newborns before discharge; reflexology on the soles of the foot, 24% sucrose solution, kangaroo care, listening to classical music were applied to the babies and were compared to those who did not have any analgesic method.
The objective is to show that the use of therapeutic communication tools, in this case a comfort scale, a low cost and simple to implement method, can reduce pain and therefore the consumption of opioids in the postoperative care unit. Our hypothesis is that the use of a comfort scale will lead to significant postoperative opioid sparing, and consequently to a decrease in the opioid-related side effects The aim of this study is to compare postoperative opioid consumption between patients whose pain is assessed by a numerical verbal scale and those assessed with a comfort scale.
Neuraxial labor analgesia is a very widely used technique for labor pain relief with a high efficacy and safety. EA (Epidural analgesia) can guarantee a proper control of pain in 95-100% of cases in the first stage of labor, but in the second stage his efficacy is not always adequate. DPEA (Dural Puncture Epidural Analgesia) is a variation of the conventional EA and technically a modified version of the CSE (Combined Spinal Epidural) analgesia. When compared with the traditional EA, DPEA showed satisfying, effective and fast control of labor pain, no motor block and less need for anesthetic boluses given through the epidural catheter when the maintenance of analgesia was guaranteed with manual top-ups, as well as less request for extra boluses of anesthetic when PIEB (Programmed Intermittent Epidural Boluses) was chosen for the maintenance of analgesia. Studies proved that DPEA is a safe technique and no statistically significant incidence of side effects for mothers and fetuses was observed. The hypothesis of this study is that a DPEA performed with a 27 G Whitacre spinal needle can especially improve the spread in the sacral region. The primary outcome of this study is to evaluate whether the DPEA performed with a 27-G Whitacre spinal needle is more effective in ensuring satisfying analgesia as a result of a better sacral analgesic spread, compared to the traditional EA.
Post-market, observational study to assess the real-world safety and efficacy of BD Spinal Needles used in an on-market fashion.
Randomized controlled trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the use of a local anesthetic spray, commonly used in clinical practice as off-label, during the suturing of perineal lacerations in post-partum, comparing it with the standard technique that involves the infiltration of lacerated tissues, by administering a NRS card at the end of the procedure.
In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effects of subcostal anterior quadratus lumborum block (S-QLB3) and thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) on postoperative acute pain scores and opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after laparoscopic nephrectomy surgery.
Cardiac surgery is associated with significant postoperative pain. Pain control is an essential part of enhanced recovery protocols. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the analgesic efficacies of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and the combination of ESPB and superficial parasternal intercostal plane block (PIPB) in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.
Before surgery, patients will be divided into 2 groups as transversalis fascia plane block will be applied and skin infiltration will be applied. Post-operative analgesic procedures will be applied to patients receiving general anesthesia. Postoperative analgesic consumption and pain scores of the patients will be evaluated.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of adding dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to bupivacaine in ultrasound (US) guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for managing acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy.
