Filter by:Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality of life. A technology called cryoneurolysis, which acts to freeze nerves causing pain using a small tool which can turn very cold, is a promising new way to manage rib fracture pain. This study is a test with a small number of people to see if it is feasible to use this technology for patients with rib fractures. If this is successful, we will recruit more people for a larger study to see if cryoneurolysis, along with standard pain control techniques, is better at stopping pain, compared to just the normal techniques alone. Participants in our study will be asked to rate their pain, and record pain medications that they take for 3 months after their pain procedure.
This prospective randomized controlled study is aimed to determine the advantages of post-admission fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) in geriatric hip fracture surgery combination with multimodal analgesia compared with no post-admission FICB. The primary outcome is incidence of delirium during hospital admission. Secondary outcomes are incidence of delirium at hospital discharge, pre- and post-operative pain intensity, peri-operative complications, opioid-related side effects, post-operative complications and length of hospital stay, and morbidities and mortality (in-hospital and 30 days).
The cervix consists of connective tissue, smooth muscle, and parasympathetic innervation. Smooth muscle makes up about 15% of the cervix, is mainly found under the internal opening of the neck. Papaverine and its derivatives are musculotropic antispasmodic drugs that directly affect smooth muscle, the mechanism is to reduce the spasm of smooth muscle resulting in relaxation. Studies on the pharmacokinetics of this drug show that it has a half-life of 0.5-2 hours and its effect is apparent within 10 minutes. Administration of antispasmodic drugs during childbirth is common in developing and developed countries. Based on previous studies, the use of these drugs during childbirth may lead to a faster opening of the cervix. Possible uses of Papaverine include, administered separately or in combination with other treatments such as rupture of amniotic membranes and/or Oxytocin administration. According to some studies, administration of Papaverine at birth can be used as a preventive or therapeutic strategy in cases of prolonged labor or first stage over 12 hours as defined in some studies. According to Kochran et al, who included 13 experiments with 1995 participants, the use of antispasmodic drugs shortened the first stage of labor by an average of 74.34 minutes. In 6 experiments that included 820 patients, the administration of antispasmodic drugs during labor increases the rate of cervical opening by an average of 0.61 cm per hour. In addition to the muscle relaxation effect, studies have been published on the analgesic effect of PAPAVERINE for example in patients with urinary stones. In the present study, the investigators want to test the effect of administering PAPAVERINE IV 80 mg within half an hour before the insertion of a catheter balloon for cervical ripening on the Bishop score after catheter removal between the two groups.
The aim of this double blind randomized study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of lidocaine and ketamine in the same syringe versus remifentanyl analgesia in cervical spine surgery.
KETAMINE has been used for several years in emergency departments for analgesic purposes. Its ease of use and its analgesic effect have been demonstrated in several studies. Nevertheless, this molecule is not devoid of side effects, in particular the very frequent occurrence of nausea, vomiting, anxiety, an overall feeling of discomfort and more rarely hallucinations, feelings of unreality, or tachycardia. Recently, ESKETAMINE, used as an anesthetic but also in the USA as an antidepressant, has obtained its Marketing Authorization in the management of moderate to severe pain. ESKETAMINE corresponds to the S-(-)-KETAMINE enantiomer. Like KETAMINE, it acts as a non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor but unlike KETAMINE does not interact, with the sigma receptors responsible for hallucinations and delusional symptoms. ESKETAMINE aimed at anesthetic is about twice as potent as KETAMINE and would also be eliminated more quickly. Studies suggest that at equivalent doses, ESKETAMINE would be better tolerated than the KETAMINE usually used in emergency departments. In this study, the tolerance of ESKETAMINE used at analgesic doses for treatment of moderate to severe pain will be assessed in an emergency departement A wider usage of ESKETAMINE for analgesia purpose in emergency departments is expected, with a better tolerance for the patients compared to KETAMINE
Randomized clinical trial to evaluate the utility of CYP2D6 genotyping to improve the efficacy and safety of tramadol in the treatment of acute postoperative pain. Phase IV and low-intervention trial To evaluate if the implementation of pharmacogenetics in clinical practice can help to improve the treatment of acute pain, increasing efficacy and reducing adverse reactions. The main evaluation variable: This is a simple study, which does not differ from standard clinical practice and therefore we do not expect early ending of the study.
To date, the effects of pain on motor learning have not been thoroughly investigated. When examining potential effects on retention of motor learning, it is important to dissociate any effects of pain from effects of a context change. The purpose of this research is to determine whether any altered retention of motor learning associated with acute pain is a true affect of pain or an affect of context (or both).
The aim of this double-blind randomized study will be to evaluate the effect an intravenous infusion of magnesium has on recovery outcomes after elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy
The aim of this double blind randomized study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus remifentanil analgesia in lumbar spine surgery
