Filter by:Pain management is a major concern in oncologic breast surgery and reconstruction. Significant risks for acute and chronic pain after surgery might be reduced through improved pain control pre-operatively. Addition of regional anesthesia to a multimodal peri-operative pain management protocol offers a promising solution for improved recovery. For patients undergoing mastectomy with immediate alloplastic breast reconstruction, this RCT compares TPVB+Pecs local anesthetic block with TPVB local anesthetic block and Pecs placebo normal saline block for their effect on acute pain, chronic pain, opioid consumption, opioid-related side effects, patient-reported quality of recovery after surgery, and length of stay.
Ultrasound-guided mid-point transverse process to pleura block, erector spinae plane block and paravertebral block are three different methods of nerve block, used for relieving postoperative pain in thoracic anesthesia. This study is to compare them on block effects, postoperative pain and analgesic consumption in video-assisted thoracic surgery.
Currently there is no standardized management or single technique to manage postoperative pain after Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), there are many options available ranging from intravenous opioids, morphine or fentanyl Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA), peripheral nerve blocks, intercostals, paravertebral and epidural blocks. Erector Spinal Block (ESP), this blocks the ventral and dorsal branch of the unilateral thoracic roots. It corresponds to an interfacial block that produces an extensive multidermatomal sensitive block with a single puncture, covering the anterior, lateral and posterior aspect of the thorax. One of its main advantages would be safety, possible less damage to nerves and pneumothorax, as well as the simplicity of execution of this block. What has positioned it as another analgesic alternative in this type of surgery. The pharmacokinetic profile that local anesthetics would have when injected into this interfacial compartment has not yet been described, and what the real impact of the use of vasoconstrictor will be in terms of plasma levels and duration of the block. Our objective is to compare the plasma levels of levobupivacaine achieved after performing an ESP Block with or without epinephrine.
Randomized controlled study to investigate the role of intraoperative vagal nerve block for preventing the postoperative cough in patients who received the pulmonary resection for lung cancer
Heart rate variability(HRV) and electroencephalography(EEG) has been used widely in anesthetic practice nowadays. One of the most dominant applications is the nociception-analgesia balance. Some evidence support that heart rate variability correlates with perioperative stimulation and postoperative pain score. There are some new evidence support EEG correlated with anesthesia depth and analgesic balance. However, the heterogeneity between the studies and interference factors has limited their usage in clinical practice. On the other hand, peripheral nerve block is broadly used as a routine technique with general anesthesia, but few studies discuss the effect on heart rate variability. Our study focuses on the different HRV and EEG patterns of incision and insufflation during laparoscopic surgery with general anesthesia. Furthermore, we measure the effect of transversus abdominis plane nerve block to heart rate variability during surgery. By this comparison, we can discuss the influences of somatic stimulation, visceral stimulation, and pneumoperitoneum to heart rate variability, and then improve the accuracy of HRV-based nociception-analgesia monitors.
In this study, the investigator will examine the efficacy of Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block in hip arthroplasty as a post-operative pain management technique, study the analgesia, opioid-sparing effects and motor-blocking effects of the PENG block
Prospective randomized placebo-controlled trial assessing the efficacy of superior laryngeal nerve block for adults with neurogenic cough refractory to proton pump inhibitor as determined by improvement in validated cough severity questionnaires before and after injection of Marcaine and Kenalog compared to placebo (saline injection).
Title: A prospective randomized double blind trial of the efficacy of a bilateral lumbar erector spinae block on the 24 h morphine consumption after posterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery. Objectives: The primary objective is to study the influence of a bilateral erector spinae block on 24h morphine consumption. Endpoint: The primary endpoint is the 24 h morphine consumption in mg. Secondary endpoints are intraoperative sufentanil requirement, total morphine during first 72 postoperative hours, NRS pain scores in rest and defined movement (moving to chair) at regular time intervals and Quality of Recovery 40 score (QoR-40) at fixed time intervals day 1 and 3 postoperatively Population: Patients undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion ranging 1 - 3 levels Phase 3 Number of sites Enrolling participants: University Hospital Antwerp &AZ KLINA Brasschaat Description of study agent: Bilateral erector spinae block: each block contains 20 ml levobupivacaine 0.25% + 5 mcg/ml epinephrine Study duration Until the required study population is met Participant duration 72 hours
Two-parallel arm, double-blind, individually randomized controlled trial. Primary endpoint: Fentanyl consumption in the first 48 postoperative hours. Secondary endpoints: Pain at rest, Pain on movement, stay in ICU, Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), sedation, Hemothorax, seizures, arrythmias
