Filter by:The investigators have recently shown that pain associated with peripheral venous cannulation can be used to predict the risk of postoperative pain, where patients grading their pain associated with venous cannulation (VCP) above 2.0 VAS units had 3.4 times higher risk of moderate or severe postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy and 1.7 times higher risk in a mixed group of patients and surgeries. The aim of this study is to investigate whether pain sensitivity measurements using VCP can be used to choose anesthesia treatment protocol with the aim to lower acute postoperative pain in those with high risk. In patients with low risk we aim to lower the amount of opioids given.
This randomized clinical trial compares the effects of the erector spinae plane block with levobupivacaine and 0,9% saline on postoperative pain intensity, and opioid consumptions following thoracoscopic pulmonary surgery.
Prospective, randomized, controlled single-blinded trial comparing liposomal bupivacaine with bupivacaine HCl for postoperative management. Upon completion of the forefoot procedure in the operative room the subject will be entered into the randomization system which will specify whether to inject 10cc (5mg/mL) of bupivacaine HCl or 8cc (13.3 mg/mL) liposomal bupivacaine, both considered routine care procedure. Thereafter, postoperative pain will be assessed and measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scoring scale post-operatively at 2 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. In addition, the amount of oral morphine equivalents (OME) required postoperatively and time to first use of OME will be measured. Our hypothesis is that patients who received liposomal bupivacaine will have less post-operative pain and require less OMEs.
KETAMINE AND DEXAMETASONE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF PAIN IN LUMBAR ARTHRODESISPhase IV prospective randomized controlled single-center clinical trial to determine the effect of intravenous ketamine and dexamethasone administration perioperatively in patients undergoing lumbar arthrodesis.
In light of the opioid epidemic and evidence suggesting that cannabis may be opioid-sparing, we are in a unique position to conduct a novel, high-impact study that would set the stage for future RCTs examining the effects of a nonintoxicating and nonaddictive cannabinoid in an orthopedic patient population. Epidiolex®, an oral cannabidiol (CBD) solution, is the first ever cannabis-derived medication to be approved by the Food & Drug Administration. Our aim is to conduct a pilot study using a placebo oral solution, 400mg and 800mg Epidiolex® to gather data on its effects on patients undergoing bilateral total knee arthroplasty (BTKA). We will be estimating whether Epidiolex® is associated with minimal opioid use and adequate analgesia. We will also assess its tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and effects on inflammatory markers in the perioperative setting.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a bilateral ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block on the pain scores and opoid utiliziation in fusion surgery of the lumbar spine.
we designed this randomized, single -blind, prospective clinical study to test postoperative analgesia of three intrathecal additives in elective caesarean sections which are magnesium, dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine.
QSPainRelief-patientCNS is a monocentric prospective longitudinal study conducted in patients suffering from disabling post-surgical pain for which the treating physician is about to prescribe a given drug combination for the treatment of their pain with the aim of identifying measures of drug-induced effects on CNS activity that could be used as biomarkers of real-life clinical outcome, both in terms of desired treatment effects (treatment-induced pain relief) but also in terms of undesired treatment effects (treatment-induced sedation and treatment-induced cognitive dysfunction).
Recommendation is strong on physical activity (PA) in the prehabilitation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for various types of surgeries. The evidence is however weak regarding ERAS protocols. Many studies have showed that physical exercise and PA have hypoalgesic effects on healthy individuals and they have better pain tolerance too. Here the investigators study changes in postoperative pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting for various types of surgical patients after performing preoperative PA at moderate or vigorous intensity Vs non-preoperative PA patients.
Pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) has been deemed as a safe and effective regional technique for postoperative pain after knee arthroscopy.
