Filter by:Control of postoperative pain is a foremost goal in achieving a satisfactory postoperative recovery. Surgical removal of lower third molars is accompanied by postoperative pain that is at its peak in the first 12 hours. Our study evaluates if the use of 2% lidocaine hydrochloride for the surgical removal of lower third molars with a postoperative 0.5% bupivacaine supplementation would result in lesser postoperative pain and a decrease in ingestion of oral analgesics to control the pain when compared to a placebo.
The ETAP study aim to assess the effect of the addition of an ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block to a multimodal intravenous analgesia protocol on the postoperative pain control in open surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm. The ETAP study is a single-center open-label randomized controlled trial. Half of patients included will receive the association of TAP block and multimodal intravenous analgesia, and the other half will receive the multimodal intravenous analgesia alone. The multimodal intravenous analgesia includes intravenous paracetamol and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia with morphine.
The main objective of the trial is to complete a double-blinded randomized controlled trial of a lumbar plexus block with the Shamrock technique versus the Lumbar Ultrasound Trident technique by estimating the time of performance of lumbar plexus blocks in healthy volunteers. Secondary objectives include a) estimates of number and depth of needle injections, distance of injection site from the midline, minimal electric nerve stimulation to trigger muscular response and the type of response, and volunteer discomfort during block injection, b) measurements of plasma lidocaine and mean arterial blood pressure, c) examinations of sensory block of the dermatomes T8-S3 and motor block of the femoral nerve, the obturator nerve, the hip abductor muscles, and the hamstring muscles, d) success rate of lumbar plexus block, e) perineural and epidural distribution of local anesthetics added contrast visualized on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning, and f) cost-effectiveness for the Shamrock technique versus the Lumbar Ultrasound Trident Technique for lumbar plexus block in healthy volunteers. The hypothesis is that the Shamrock technique is faster to perform than the Lumbar Ultrasound technique, and that the success rate of the Shamrock technique is equal to or higher than the Lumbar Ultrasound Trident technique.
The purpose of this study is to determine wether wound infiltration brings additional analgesia effect after cesarean section with optimal standard postoperative analgesia
In this study we investigate the following properties of the transversus abdominis plane block in healthy volunteers: 1. Cutaneous analgesic distribution 2. Muscular affection 3. Reproducibility
The purpose of this study is to determine whether OraVerse is safe and effective for the reversal of dental anesthesia in children 2 to 5 years of age weighing at least 10 kg.
Adequate tissue oxygenation is required for effective white blood cell function and bactericidal activity. Decreased tissue oxygenation is a risk factor for perioperative wound infections. Regional anesthetic techniques result in a functional sympathetic block and may increase tissue oxygenation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in tissue oxygenation using a non-invasive Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) device. The current study will evaluate changes in tissue oxygenation following regional anesthetic techniques (peripheral nerve blockade and neuraxial techniques such as caudal block) in pediatric patients). Regional anesthesia will induce a sympathetic blockade and improve tissue oxygenation.
In children, behavior management is critical to the success of pediatric dental procedures. Most of the studies on local anesthesia performed in children deal with the question how to avoid or minimize pain during injection. Due to the sensation of numbness children scratch the soft tissues and bite lips and tongue. In many cases, this may be kept in children's memory as a "painful experience" and may affect their behavior in the following visit. The purpose of this study is to evaluate children's reactions to the administration of local anesthetic injection in the mandible (mandibular block) and in the maxilla (supraperiosteal infiltration), and to assess their behavior in the following visit related to each type of injection.
