Filter by:To compare the duration of analgesic efficacy as determined by the time to rescue medication of a single oral dose of naproxen sodium 440 mg (2 x 220 mg tablets) relative to ibuprofen 400 mg (2 x 200 mg tablets) and placebo over 24 hours in subjects experiencing moderate to severe post-impaction surgery dental pain. To compare the overall analgesic effect (SPID 0-24) of a single dose of naproxen sodium 440 mg (2 x 220 mg tablets) relative to ibuprofen 400 mg (2 x 200 mg tablets) and placebo. To compare the overall relief from pain (TOTPAR 0-24) of a single dose of naproxen sodium 440 mg (2 x 220 mg tablets) relative to ibuprofen 400 mg (2 x 200 mg tablets) and placebo.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a widely employed procedure in ambulatory surgery. Pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy arises significantly from port site incisions in the anterior abdominal wall. Innervation of the anterior abdominal wall is segmentally supplied by pain afferents in the plane of fascia between transversus abdominis and the internal oblique muscles. Opioids analgesia is used to control postoperative pain, but it carries the risk of increased nausea and vomiting, ileus and sedation that may delay hospital discharge. Several techniques have been tried as.neuroaxial narcotics, intraperitoneal lavage of local anesthetic and transversus abdominis plan (TAP) block and successfully reduced opioid use and improve postoperative analgesia. The ultrasound-guided erector spinae plan(ESP) block is a recently described technique which produces reliable unilateral analgesia at thoraco-lumbar dermatomes. ESP block carries the advantages of being simple, safe, easily recognizable by ultrasound, and a catheter can be threaded to extend the duration of analgesia. Few case series reported the efficacy of (US)-guided ESP blocks in reducing postoperative pain and opioids consumption. Because of that, the investigators aimed to test the hypothesis that US-guided ESP blocks can decrease opioid consumption during the first 24 h after of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in comparison with the conventional systemic analgesia.
Regional eye blocks are usually preferred for ophthalmic procedures. Peribulbar block (PBB) is a safe alternative for patients undergoing cataract surgery. Many studies tried to solve this issue by means of prolonging the duration of action of the local anesthetics used. Several drugs were tried as adjuncts to local anesthetics, and their effects have been studied. Midazolam added to the list of adjuvant used in the subarachnoid or epidural block can produce analgesia, probably mediated by the benzodiazepine-Gamma Amino-Butyric Acid(GABA) receptor complex. The investigators hypothesized that the addition of midazolam to lidocaine will improve the quality of the peribulbar block; fasten the onset and prolonging its anesthetic and analgesic duration.
Background: Recent studies showed the efficiency of several techniques of anesthesia in foot surgery. The new mini-invasive surgical approaches should require less analgesia and rapid motor recovery after surgery. The aim of this study was the evaluation of two different techniques on postoperative analgesia and motor recovery after hallux valgus correction in one-day surgery patients.
Thus study evaluates the advantage of infiltration of the surgical wound by local anesthetics in cesarean section on post operative pain relief. In the study group before closing the skin, both sides of the incision (top and bottom) will be infiltrated by 30 ml of 0.25% BUPIVACAINE and ADRENALIN at 1: 200,000 concentration and then closing the skin. In the control group, the skin will be closed without infiltration. Our hypothesis is that subcutaneous infiltration of the surgical wound by BUPIVACAINE + ADRENALIN at the end of cesarean section will reduce the intensity of post operative pain.
Surgical trauma is characterized by a tightly integrated sequence of neurohumoral and immunological processes. When this is marked, it can manifest as a clinical entity called the systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Previous studies reported that inflammatory milieu in the postoperative period can be a harmful and potentially modifiable condition that may affect postoperative recovery, which includes the level of pain, fatigue, dizziness, nausea and vomiting (PONV), muscle weakness, and sleep quality and then increases the need for hospitalization. The effect of postoperative inflammation-related immune suppression such as the T-cell exhaustion and lymphocyte anergy may render the patient vulnerable to both infection and the recurrence of malignancy on postoperative infection risk and malignancy recurrence are currently subjects of intense speculation and investigation. Glucocorticoids are well known for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive agents and antiemetic effects. Though previous studies' results on postoperative outcome have been positive and in favor of glucocorticoid use, with postoperative nausea and vomiting and pain outcome parameters most significantly improved. However, high-dose methylprednisolone treatment could result in decreases T-cells postoperatively. Based on these consideration, the aim of our study was to assess the effect of a single low-dose preoperative methylprednisolone (MP) 1 mg/Kg i.v. on postoperative pain and immune functions in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) under general anesthesia.
The study is performed in patients aged 5-18 years after thoracic surgery. The primary aim of this trial is to determine whether the use of gabapentin as a component of multimodal analgesic regiments reduces pain scores following thoracic surgery in pediatric patients. The secondary objective of the trial are to evaluate whether the use of gabapentin reduces postoperative anxiety scores and consumption of ropivacaine with fentanyl, decreases side-effects, and improves patient satisfaction.
The purpose of this study is to compare between the addition of Mg sulphate or Nalbuphine to intraperitoneal bupivacaine installation in laparoscopic hysterectomy for postoperative pain control and their relative adverse effects.
Hypothesis: Postoperative pain will be equivalent in patients receiving preemptive oral acetaminophen as compared to patients receiving preemptive intravenous acetaminophen following minimally invasive benign gynecologic surgery. Primary outcome: • Difference in postoperative pain comparing preemptive use of PO versus IV acetaminophen o Mean Visual analog Scale (VAS) scores will be compared between the intervention group (PO acetaminophen) and the control group (IV acetaminophen). Secondary outcomes: - Difference in postoperative analgesic use between groups o Narcotics, NSAIDs - Difference in postoperative N/V between groups o Patient rated measure - none, mild, moderate, severe - Cost comparison between drugs
This study will define the postoperative analgesic effect of ESP block via amount of patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) and postoperative analgesic consumption (such as routinely and rescue analgesics) and compare the control group in patients having laparoscopic Cholecystectomy .
