Filter by:Reducing post-operative pain and reducing the use of opioid narcotics are independently valuable goals. Before studying newer techniques that may help us achieve these goals, we need objective data on how much pain normally occurs after breast surgery done with standard-of-care techniques. This study was designed to obtain baseline data.
The suprazygomatic maxillary nerve (SZMN) block is a well-established, safe and effective regional technique for pain management following cleft palate procedures. However, it has not been studied for patients undergoing tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A) procedures. The goal of this study is to determine whether the SZMN block can be utilized to improve pain control and decrease morbidity in pediatric patients undergoing T&A. An additional goal will be to determine whether the use of dexmedetomidine as a local anesthetic adjunct can prolong the analgesic effects of the SZMN block to cover the entire duration of pain experienced.
The aim of the study is to determine which regional anaesthesiological technique (thoracic epidural analgesia or paravertebral block) is more suitable for thoracic surgery
A prospective randomized study was performed including consecutive patients who underwent an elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for symptomatic cholelithiasis during the 18 months period. This prospective randomized trial aims to compare two umbilical closure techniques for trocar site hernia (TSH) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
This randomized controlled study is designed to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of the ultrasound-guided modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The investigators hypothesized that the US-guided M-TAPA would be more effective in postoperative pain control than the US-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB).
All patients will be treated in a single session approach regardless of the group. All molars will be anesthetized either through infiltration in case of maxillary molars or inferior alveolar nerve block in case of mandibular molars using Octocaine 2% with epinephrine 1: 100,000 (Lidocaine HCl, Novocol Pharmaceutical, Ontario, Canada.). Rubber dam will be applied; and access will be opened using Endo access bur. In group A manual glide path will be established using manual thermal treated stainless-steel files in a watch winding maneuver. In group B glide path will be established using rotary Ni-Ti files in a reciprocating maneuver. Coronal flaring will be performed using Gates Glidden drill #3 in a brushing motion away from dangerous zone. Root canals will be copiously irrigated using 10 ml 2.5% sodium hypochlorite NaOCl (Clorox; Egyptian Company for household bleach, Egypt) delivered using 28 Gauge safety Steri Irrigation Tip (DiaDent Group International, Burnaby, BC, Canada) inserted 3 mm below cementoenamel junction. Working length will be determined using electronic apex locator Root ZX II (J. Morita Mfg. Corp, Kyoto, Japan) and confirmed radiographically using parallel technique with receptor holding device. Canals were irrigated again with 10ml 1.5% NaOCl, which was delivered 2mm coronal to apical canal terminus. Irrigation was hydro-dynamically agitated with EndoActivator device (Dentsply Maillefer, Baillagues, Switzerland) using blue tips #30/06 inserted 2mm short of working length for 60 seconds.
A monocenter, prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled non-inferiority trial will be designed to investigate if ketorolac 10 mg is as effective for pain relief as the standard dose of 30 mg in patients undergoing robot assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) or hysterectomy by laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) or total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). It is hypothesised that the postoperative pain score at rest at 8 hours after surgery when receiving ketolorac 10 mg is non-inferior to the pain score at rest when receiving ketolorac 30mg.
This subject intends to explore the value of intraoperative celiac plexus block in postoperative acute pain management and its promoting effect on patients' rapid recovery during epigastric laparotomy through a randomized controlled trial.
Sixty patients undergoing TKA were divided into three groups, then three different intro-operative articular cavity perfusion treatment was given according to the randomized, double-blind and controlled rule. One way ANOVA analysis on visual analogue scale (VAS) score, functional recovery, drainage, and edema of the affected limb were performed to assess the efficiency of the treatment in the following three days after the operation.
Cardiac surgery patients often undergo anxiousness and pain. Before surgery, anxiety is often caused by the idea of sternotomy, extracorporeal circulation, fear of post-operative pain, and even death. After surgery anxiety and pain can be the consequences of operative and peri-operative procedures. The investigators believe that reducing stress and pain by a relaxation therapy would lead to better stay in hospital and a better recovery after surgery. Music Care® relaxation technique consists into listening to an audio relaxing soundtrack chosen by the patient. This technique has already proven with several clinical studies its efficiency for reducing pain and anxiety in hospital. The research consists of comparing this technique to Peter Hess® sound massage for reducing pain and anxiety. The Peter Hess® sound massage is a holistic relaxation technique that uses sound vibrations generated by therapeutic singing bowls. Patients will be randomized in one of the two groups (Music Care® or Peter Hess®).
