Filter by:As of October 2019, when the investigators received the approval of the ethics committee, patients who were decided to undergo kyphoplasty with vertebral compression fracture will be included in the study. The patients will be divided into three groups according to the anesthetic method as conventional local anesthesia infiltration (CLIA) method and extrapedicular infiltration anesthesia (EPIAA) and 30 other patients as US guided erector spina group (ESP) for a total of 60 patients. The degree of pain in the intraoperative period will be assessed using a numerical rating scale. Patients with severe pain (NRS> 4) will receive 50 micrograms of fentanyl as an additional analgesic. Sedation levels of the patients will be evaluated with ramsey sedation scale (1-6). Patients with a sedation score of 1 will receive 2 mg of midazolam. During the procedure, pain scores at 0 minutes, 15, 30 and 45 minutes, sedation scores, additional analgesic and sedation amounts administered, and hemodynamic parameters will be recorded. The statistical difference between the groups will be compared
Ethics committee approval was taken on October 22, 2019, numbered 19/342. 120 adult patients who will undergo spine stabilization surgery between October 2019 and January 2020 in "Gülhane Training and Research Hospital" were planned to be included in the study. Patients will be randomized to 30 patients with MTP block (Group MTP) and ESP block (Group ESP) and no block (Group K) in addition to patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). Postoperative pain scores, analgesic use, number of PCA button presses, total amount of opioid administered and complications due to opioids will be recorded. The obtained data will be compared statistically.
Theoretically, all surgeries below mid-humerus can be done under infraclavicular (IC) blocks. Following the introduction of ultrasonography (USG) to clinical anesthesia, plexus, and nerve blocks under the guidance of USG have gained wide acceptance for the high rates of block success and low risk of complications (1). In this study, the main aim is to evaluate the single injection and triple injection techniques in IC blocks with a USG-guided medial approach in terms of block success and the need for supplementary blocks. The secondary goals are to compare the complication rates and sensory block durations and to discuss the possible reasons for the failure of the blocks.
Prospective randomized study comparing the axillary and the infraclavicular approaches for continuous brachial plexus block after hand surgery.
The study is being conducted to gain insight into regional anesthesia practice in polish hospitals specifically asking for methods used, accessibility to equipment and preference for regional blockade and perioperative analgesia.
Pain along the sternum following opening of the chest cavity, also known as post-sternotomy pain (PSP), is a common complication after heart surgery that is associated with several negative side effects. Unfortunately, an effective and safe treatment has not yet been discovered for PSP. However, recently a regional anesthesia technique called the pecto-intercostal fascial block (PIFB) was found to be associated with improved pain relief for breast surgery. The investigators plan to assess the feasibility of using PIFB as an effective and safe treatment for PSP.
Hip arthroscopy surgery can be associated with significant pain. A regional anesthesia technique, the femoral articular branch block (FAB), has recently been proposed to collectively block terminal femoral and accessory obturator nerve branches to the hip joint with a single injection, theoretically blocking most of the innervation relevant to hip arthroscopy while sparing the main femoral nerve branches to the quadriceps muscles. The investigators aim to demonstrate the analgesic benefits of FAB. The investigators hypothesize that FAB will reduce opioid consumption and improve postoperative quality of recovery in patients having hip arthroscopy. This is a randomized, controlled, double-blind study and half the patients will be randomized to receive the femoral articular branch block and the other half of patients will be randomized to receive a placebo block. A comparison of pain will be made between both groups.
An interventional randomized controlled crossover trial, to illuminate if durations in nerve block durations are predictable within the same subject.
Diabetic patients suffering diabetic foot disease have sever comorbidities, as hypertension, ischemic heart disease, autonomic neuropathy, infections and gastric reflux all of which contribute to a high risk profile for anesthesia. failure rate associated with ankle or popliteal nerve block may be higher than accepted, the study hypothesized that combined ankle and popliteal block may increase the success rate with no added complications.
The pectoral block is a recently developed regional anesthetic technique that can be used for the treatment of postoperative pain after breast surgery. Injection of local anesthetic between the major and the minor pectoral muscles is defined as the pectoral (PEC) 1 block. This block has not been well characterized in terms of its blocking effects on motor and sensitive nerves (medial and lateral pectoral nerves and intercostal nerves). This clinical trial is divided into two sections: a volunteer study and a patient study. For the volunteer study, the aim is to assess the sensory territory affected by injection of local anesthetics through a PEC 1 block and to assess motor function in terms of strength of adduction of the affected limb using a dynamometer. In a prospective, randomized, controlled and double blind study, the aim is to assess the postoperative pain relieving properties of the PEC 1 block in patients undergoing bilateral breast augmentation surgery.
