Filter by:Objective: to verify the effect of solution-focused group therapy (SFBT) on pain management as well as physiological, psychological and social adaptation in patients with spinal cord injury. Setting: for matters of convenience, the samples were collected at medical and rehabilitation centers in Taiwan. Twenty-six patients with spinal cord injuries and neuropathic pain were invited to join the four pain management groups. Method: In the case of patients with spinal cord injury affected by neuropathic pain, a solution-focused pain management group therapy was conducted once a week for 6 weeks, 90 minutes each time; fear avoidance theory and acceptance and commitment therapy was used for pain management, using solution-focus group counseling strategies to guide group members to achieve pain management goals by accepting pain and establishing goals.The group effectiveness was assessed before and after the group intervention in terms of pain intensity (0-10 numeric rating scale), brief pain inventory-pain inference, chronic pain self-efficacy scale, pain fear (0-10 numeric rating scale), depression (patient health questionnaire-9), demoralization (demoralization scale), post-traumatic growth inventory and life quality (WHOQOL-BREF). Then we analyzed the correlation between the difference values of the variables before and after the test in order to understand the clinical application of the pain management group therapy for patients with spinal cord injury.
Moderate to severe postoperative pain often influence patients quality of recovery after hepatectomy. Systemic opioids given with patient-controlled analgesia has been used after hepatectomy in many medical center, but the analgesic effect can be limited and undesirable side effects may bring about negative effects on patients recovery. Regional block has been proved to improve patients postoperative recovery in many kinds of surgeries. The investigators therefore designed a prospective, randomized, subject and assessor blinded, parallel-group, placebo controlled study to test the hypothesis that continuous right thoracic paravertebral block increase patients quality of recovery score on the 7th postoperative day after hepatectomy in patients receiving i.v. patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with morphine.
This prospective, randomized study,control study aims to compare the analgesic effect,opioids consumption,quality of recovery,length of hospital stay，et al. between single-injection QLB(quadratus lumborum block)+ intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IPCA) and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IPCA) alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
This prospective, randomized control study aims to compare the analgesic effect, satisfaction with anesthesia and analgesia between single-injection QLB (quadratus lumborum block)+general anesthesia (GA) and general anesthesia (GA) alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
This study evaluates the effect of Virtual Reality (VR) on pain and recovery in 100 post-operative patients. 60 patients will be included in the intervention group; they will use VR minimal 3 times a day on day 2-4 after surgery, on the surgical ward, as an add-on intervention next to standard care. 40 patients in the control group will only receive standard postoperative care.
The aim of this study is to measure the efficacy of music during a painful procedure in pediatric intensive care unit. Music therapy has real effects on the pain level already proven in adults units. Our objective is to apply this technic to children. The investigators will evaluate this technic during cleaning care which is daily procedure for each stable patient and wich may be painful in this population.
This study aims to examine whether use of an abdominal binder for postpartum patients after vaginal delivery can effectively manage their pain and reduce the need for pharmacologic analgesics. The investigators hypothesize that use of an abdominal binder will decrease patient pain as reported on a visual analog scale of one to ten, and will decrease quantity of pain medications given. The study will be conducted at the Berry Women's Center at Miami Valley Hospital. Potential eligible participants will be approached regarding the study on admission to labor and delivery. The investigators will recruit 130 participants that will be randomized to two study arms, standard care and standard care plus abdominal binder with 65 participants in each study arm. Data will be collected prospectively while participants are admitted, and through review of electronic medical records. Potential benefits of this study include investigation of a cost-effective method for pain management that could improve patient comfort and reduce need for medications.
This will be a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled cross-sectional study comparing interscalene brachial plexus block with liposomal bupivacaine versus bupivacaine with epinephrine and PF dexamethasone in patients undergoing primary shoulder arthroplasty. Primary endpoint will be total opioid consumption in the first three post-operative days.
This study evaluates the use of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) as a method of pain control during osmotic dilator insertion prior to dilation and evacuation. Half the group will have an active TENS unit and half will have a sham or placebo TENS unit.
The purpose of this study is to compare total opioid consumption by subjects in different treatment groups. Another purpose of this study is to assess how well EXPAREL works, collect any safety data and assess your satisfaction using EXPAREL.
