Filter by:A randomized controlled trial will be conducted to examine the effect of non-pharmacological nursing pain management strategies in alleviating pain among preterm infants. The study includes a simple random sample of 105 preterm infants with CGA 32- < 37 weeks were randomly assigned into five groups: routine care (n = 21), breast milk (n = 21), oral sucrose (n = 21), KMC (n = 21), nesting position (n = 21). PIPP-R will be used to subjectively assess the pain intensity after heel stick, and salivary cortisol measures will be used to objectively assess the pain intensity in NICU at Children Welfare Teaching Hospital/ Medical City Complex in Baghdad City.
Tonsillectomy is considered one of the most frequent minor surgeries conducted on a day-case basis on children, and usually associated with pain and sore throat. This study aimed to include 80 children, ASA physical status I&II aged 4-15 years, and undergoing tonsillectomy. The purpose of this study is to determine the analgesic efficacy of topically applied lidocaine and tramadol in relieving post-operative pain in children following tonsillectomy.
Hip fracture is a common cause of surgery, especially in elderly patients. Unilateral spinal anesthesia in hip fracture surgery can prevent the undesirable effects of spinal anesthesia due to sympathetic blockade. However, severe pain in hip fracture patients limits the positioning required for unilateral spinal anesthesia. The sedation and analgesia required to position patients with fractured hip remains inferior may cause respiratory depression, hemodynamic instability or postoperative cognitive impairment, especially in elderly patients. Lower extremity peripheral blocks can be used preoperatively to minimize the use of sedatives that may be required during positioning and to provide effective and safe analgesia.
The aim of this study is to investigate Swedish dentists' attitudes about pain management when treating children and adolescents by assessing 1) dentists' recommendations for the use of pre- and postoperative analgesics, (2) use of local anaesthesia during treatment of primary and permanent teeth, and (3) if the use of these strategies differs between General Dental Practitioners (GDP) and Specialist Paediatric Dentists (SPD). All Swedish SPDs (including post-graduate dentists in paediatric dentistry), circa 150 in total, and approximately 1,000 GDPs in County Skåne, Sweden will be invited to answer a questionnaire.
Objective: The study was conducted to determine the effect of patient education on pain level and fear of pain in orthopedics and traumatology patients Methods: The study is a randomized controlled experimental research design. Data were collected between December 15, 2021, and March 15, 2022 using the Information Form, Fear of Pain Scale-III, and Visual/Visual Analogue Scale. A total of 52 patients, 26 in the intervention group and 26 in the control group were included in the study. The intervention group received patient education about the operation process and pain management the day before and the morning of the operation day. Number Cruncher Statistical System and Statistical Software (Kaysville, Utah, USA) were used to analyse the data Keywords: Fear of Pain, Pain, Pain Management, Patient Education
A experimental interventional prospective study will include patients with squamocellular carcinoma of the larynx surgically treated at the tertiary referral center. Clinical and demographic characteristics of the patients would be noted. The visual analog scale (VAS), Brief Pain Inventory questionnaire, Diagnosing Neuropathic Pain 4 (DN4) and Pain Detect Questionnaire were used for pain assessment. Questionnaire Quality of Life in Head and Neck Cancer Patients (QLQ - H&N35) was used to assess the quality of life in patients with surgically treated laryngeal carcinoma. The type and consumption of analgesics used after surgery was monitored. The analgesics were used according to WHO Ladder. Blood samples ware taken from the patients for the analysis of oxidative stress parameters and inflammation parameters before the operative treatment and after the operative treatment (1-2 postoperative day and 9-10 postoperative day). The concentrations of interleukin 1 (IL-1) and 6 (IL-6), glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1), superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in the serum were determined. The aim of the study will be to assess concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers (IL-1, IL-6) and oxidative stress factors (MDA, SOD, GPKS1) in postoperative course in surgically treated patients with laryngeal carcinoma and in possible complication occurrence. Also, their correlation to type and dosage of used analgesics, to pain assessment questionnaire scores and QOL questionnaire scores in surgically treated patients with laryngeal carcinoma will be assessed.
Interventional study to use erector spinae plane block (ESPB) on diagnoses of posterior or lateral rib fractures, vertebral fractures, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, renal colic, and back pain for multimodal pain therapy to determine its assistance with pain relief as well as the patient's use of opiates after block completion
There is a high incidence reaching up to 45%; of severe intraoperative and postoperative pain associated with arthroscopic shoulder surgery, which is often significant enough to interfere with initial recovery and rehabilitation.Various peripheral nerve blocks have been used to reduce intraoperative anesthetic requirements to improve rapid recovery and reduce postoperative pain.
This is a study of the effects of capsaicin, the ingredient that makes hot peppers hot. Capsaicin is currently used in topical ointments to provide temporary relief of minor aches and joint pain associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, and sprains. This is a pilot research study that compares the potential of two different capsaicin creams to cause irritation or burning sensation when a small amount (about the size of a quarter) is applied to each forearm of a participant. The amount of capsaicin used in the creams is the same as those found in over-the-counter capsaicin products. The test creams are experimental.
This is a Proof-of-Concept Trial to define the safety, efficacy and feasibility of a cryoanalgesic device (iovera°®) for the treatment of pain in subjects diagnosed with Morton's Neuroma, who have failed conservative therapies.
