Filter by:Background: Thyroid diseases are one of the most common health problems all over the world. After thyroidectomy, patients often experience discomfort such as neck pain, shoulder stiffness, shoulder movement difficulty, choking or pressing feeling. Head-neck stretching exercises provide neuromuscular coordination and flexibility in patients by reducing pain and muscle weakness. Methods: This research was carried out as a pre-test / post-test control group experimental design study in 82 patients in the general surgery clinic of a university hospital in Istanbul
A prospective double-blind, randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of a single-dose of intraoperative methadone on postoperative pain and opioid consumption in 96 children undergoing open urological surgery.
As the opioid epidemic continues on, more research is needed on multi-modal approaches to decrease opioid exposure after common procedures. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of a transverses abdominis block using liposome bupivacaine suspension in reducing use of opioid medications through post-operative day 7. The study is a proposed double-blind, randomized controlled trial.
In the US, pain management after surgery for surgical treatment of osteoarthritis at the base of the thumb typically consists of prescription opioids during the early recovery phase. Given the highly addictive nature of prescription opioids, guidelines are being evaluated by hand surgeons to reduce opioid use while still maintaining pain control after surgery. A promising approach is to use non-narcotic medication as the first line of treatment. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of a combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ibuprofen and acetaminophen, in comparison to a morphine analogue substance (oxycodone) for pain management in the first 30 days after surgery.
Post Mastectomy Pain Syndrome (PMPS) is a major complication of breast surgery responsible for depression and disability. The project consists of a prospective cohort on patients going for oncological breast surgery at National Institute of Oncology of Rabat. Chronic postoperative pain (CPP) remains a disturbing and obscure clinical problem, which could last for more than 3 months after surgery. The aim of present study was to assess the prevalence of CPP, investigate its impact on life quality and explore its potential risk factors. After informed consent was signed, patients receiving surgery under general anesthesia in Peking Union Medical College Hospital and other medical centers participating in this study during 2018 will be included. Patients' preoperative information will be collected from medical record, including basic demographic data, primary disease and previous chronic diseases. Intraoperative information will be obtained from anesthesia record, including surgical scope, duration, length and location of incisions and blood loss. Acute pain will be evaluated in the ward of the department of surgery, when an app will be installed on patients' mobile phones. Our long-term postoperative follow-up would be performed by sending out survey questionnaires via this app in the 4th, 8th, 16th, 32th, and 48th weeks after surgery. The survey covers questions regarding the intensity, characteristic, location and impact on daily activities of CPP. Information regarding treatment of CPP will also be collected, if any. All the data gained will be summarized in our database and analyzed.
This study is designed to evaluate the effects of administering CBD to control post-operative pain in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy. Secondly, the purpose will be to evaluate the effectiveness of CBD in comparison with opioid therapy for post-operative pain.
SPRINT PNS System will be offered to patients with postoperative knee pain following primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) who meet eligibility criteria and consistent with established coverage policy. SPRINT PNS System will be implanted for 60 days. At the discretion of the physician, the first lead may be placed to stimulate the nerve innervating the region of greatest pain. If pain is not adequately addressed by the first lead when assessed at 10 days, a second lead may be placed approximately 2 weeks following the initial lead placement.
Aim: to investigate the effects of dietary supplements on postoperative edema and pain in patients undergoing quadrantectomy for breast cancer. Methods: 120 patients will be randomized into 3 groups: A, treated with Bromelain/Boswellia Serrata Casperome and Centella Asiatica with Vitamins for 30 days; B, treated with Bromelain/Bosswellia Serrata and placebo for 30 days; C, treated with 2 placebos. Inclusion criteria: adult (>18 years) patients with breast cancer undergoing quadrantectomy with or without sentinel lymph node biopsy. Exclusion criteria: diabetic neuropathy, previous breast/chest surgeries, allergies to studied drugs, severe kidney failure, alcohol and toxics addiction, axillary lymphadenectomy. Patients will be studied through ultrasound examination for edema and collections, VAS and DN4 for pain, during 30 postoperative days. Patients will also be studied through psychological and physiatric evaluations. Wilcoxon, T student, Chi-Squared tests will be used to evaluate the outcomes. STATA 14 (StataCorp LP, College Station, Tex, USA) will be used for the analysis. P<0.05 will be statistically significant.
The investigators are going to study the difference in postoperative pain control after administration of oral versus intravenous formulation of acetaminophen
The goal of this investigation is to compare effectiveness of this multimodal regimen at controlling postoperative pain with and without the use of opioid medications.
